According to Wikipedia, "The dried noodle block was originally created by flash frying cooked noodles, and this is still the main method used in Asian countries, but air-dried noodle blocks are favored in Western countries." (from https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Instant_noodle ) So I don't know where you are, but if it happens to be a "Western country", maybe that's why.
