When I eat ramen I drop an egg in it and some cabbage... also I boil off much of the water.

Sometimes I add peas or onions.


Old habits die hard I guess.

I had a roommate once who ate it dry, right out of the package. Like a candybar D:

Luckily there are some actual ramen restaurants in town. Much better quality obviously.

We're at a point where people need 12 minute instructional videos in how to make instant noodles?

Also processed cheese slices and ranch dressing. Really?

I had a cellmate once who would take two slices of bread, crush a pack of dry Ramen between them, sprinkle on the flavor pack and eat that dry. On occasion he would add a Hershey bar or dry cocoa mix.

Crime doesn't pay, kids.

The "professional" way to eat ramen is to just throw the nasty shit in the trash...Don't open the package...don't add water...don't cook...just throw it in the trash.

A good friend of mine does that. (or used to)

I don't get it.

I tried it because he said it was good. I could hardly swallow one bite, it was so dang dry haha.

But then again, there are those people who like those ultra-dry cookies that come in the round tin at Christmas, so to each his own I guess...

If I had to choose between the 2, that's the one I would do. Personally I just add some broccoli or a mix of vegetables that include broccoli.

I usually take a nibble of the noodles, cause they are crunchy and taste good. My Sis-inlaw makes a salad with dry ramen, cabbage, shredded chicken, and a vinaigrette dressing that's really tasty. The ramen softens a bit, but stays crunchy.
