Gotta stop eat these things and find some real noodle...too bad, I still have to stick with it since I am always hungry when all those chinese noodle houses close.
The nice thing about instant noodles as opposed to Kung Fu or whatever your flavor is is that it comes in cup that you can eat at work or somethin. I've been too lazy to bring to work a full-on soup bowl for the little ramen packages.
<<they're the best instant noodles next to MAMA's and KUNGFU mmmmmm instant noodles. >>
Man, I was just gonna say that. I'm eating Mama shrimp flavored as I type this. mmm mmm!! Them suckers are tasty.
Oh and I know this might sound gross, but it's really good. My friend and my sister were skeptics at first until I let them try some. Ok what I did was I took my Kung Fu (onion or beef flavoured) and cooked it like one normally would. Then I strained all the broth and set the noodles in a bowl. Then I mixed it in with... cream cheese!!! Man, that's up there with ambrosia and nectar. Please try it before you flame me
i prefer the japanese sapporo ichiban instant noodles. i used to cook them in my rice cooker when i lived in the dorms my 1st year in college. they taste great, but i know it's from the load of msg in the flavor pack. also the packaged noodles have so much fat!
and i know i'm not the only one lazy enough to not cook the noodles and just dump the powder over the dry noodles for a quick snack right in the package.
A whole thread on ramen . . . who would have thought?
I remember reading the nutrient label, 7-12% of your daily fat intake in one. Pretty steep, but I still love them.
Instant ramen actually makes a great cheap base for other noodle dishes... and it cooks quickly too. Just open up 5 to 6 packs, cook all the noodles, drain the water and fry 'em up with veggies... nice meal for 3 -4 ppl right there!
Please don't post stupid stuff like this. For one thing, I've seen those horrible instant ramen noodles sell for as low as 12 for $1, so 5 for $1 is nothing. The other thing is, Ralph's - like most grocery stores - is only around in a few states, so few people can take advantage of this deal.
Anyways they're great for college kids like me - they're fast, cheap and easy - let's just hope the saying about "you are what you eat" isn't always true.
BTW, if you're in a college town with a Trader Joe's (I know that that's REAL limiting) check out the CampToons maps with the coupons on them. They've ALWAYS got "get a free bag of pasta . . . for free" coupons, I've got a cabinet full of them!
