chicken flavor

Ramen packet seasoning

Chicken flavor is the taste profile associated with cooked chicken, or an artificial approximation of it used in processed foods.

The phrase appears constantly on packaging for instant noodles, chips, and bouillon cubes, where actual chicken content may be minimal or absent: chicken flavor ramen, chicken flavor crackers.

The distinction between "chicken flavored" and "chicken flavor" is largely regulatory—the latter typically indicates flavoring rather than real chicken.
