There will be dried, fresh (refrigerated), or frozen (from fresh), egg-based and without eggs, all derived from some type of "flour" made from ground grains and/or legumes and/or edible roots - whether wheat, buckwheat, rice, soybeans, or even mung beans (like "glass noodles" ) or some kind of dried and ground edible plant root (like Japanese Shiratake).

Much of the package labeling is in Korean, Chinese, Japanese, Thai, or some other Asian language, although you will find some that is in English (as it is supposed to be as an import), but all of it is "imported".
