History
Wei Lih Men entered the Taiwanese market in 1973. In the 1970s, the Taiwanese market lacked many consumer goods, so many companies competed to release instant noodle products.{{Cite news| title = 維力炸醬麵來自法國?真相竟是…| author = 李珮雲 | language= zh-tw | publisher = China Times| date = 2019-06-25| access-date = 12 April 2024| url = https://www.chinatimes.com/hottopic/20190625001002-260804?chdtv}} This product was special as unlike normal instant noodles, they are not eaten with the soup but served with fried bean sauce, in the form of Taiwanese style Zhajiangmian.{{Cite web| title = #1727: Wei Lih Jah Jan Men| author = Lienesch, Hans| work = The Ramen Rater| date = 2015-07-22| access-date = 12 April 2024| url = https://www.theramenrater.com/2015/07/22/1727-wei-lih-jah-jan-men/}}
