History edit

In the 2010s, in order to digest 15 years of Huadiao wine inventory, Taiwan Tobacco and Liquor Company (TTL) began to develop a series of wine-flavoured instant noodles.[4] In 2012, TTL launched TTL Sesame Oil Chicken Noodles; in 2013, it officially launched TTL Hua Tiao Chicken Noodles. At first, the brand did not receive much attention and it was not until November 2015, when Sigma (Wei Junrong), a food product project manager of Taiwanese Winery, published an article on PTT sharing the deliciousness of TTL Hua Tiao Chicken Noodles that the brand began to attract attention and even became popular.[5] After the article was published, coupled with the cold winter weather, sales increased three to four times in a short period of time. Many retail stores were temporarily out of stock. The three major convenience stores (7-Eleven, Hi-Life and FamilyMart) all stated that sales have increased several times.[6]
