I wouldn't. A while ago we found LOTS of little bugs and critters in a package. They were all dead, but I haven't eaten any since.:disgust:

They taste GOOOOOOOOOOOOD raw. We used to eat 'em like that on Boy Scout camping trips when we were too lazy to break out the stoves.

I know a couple little kids that eat them all the time. They are not dead or sick yet.
So eat away. But I prefer them hot.

I used to eat the ramen noodles like that when I was little. I'm now 21 and have not eaten a bag of raw noodles for about ten years. I lived through it and I'm guessing you will too.

Yea, it's all good having the noodles that way. Only prob compared to cooking that I'm aware of is that there's lots of preservatives that get washed off during cooking. Sometimes when I have time, I'll cook with some faucet water, pour the gunk water off, then recook with some filtered water.

Actually they are not raw, they are fried already, and completely safe to eat. I love them, I always have to stop my self from eating the whole package while cooking them.

I know people who do that...

and they actually sell ramen noodles in chinese grocery stores that can ONLY be eaten raw. The seasoning's what makes it different from the ramen noodles you're having now.

SO bad for you (b/c of the sodium content)..but sooooo darn good.

No, you're not going to die...you're not going to get sick...just don't eat it like that too often. :)

Yeah, it's ok. Wheat or rice flour that's all.

But man if you're so hungry maybe you can't wait, maybe you have a tapeworm or something.

calling ramen noodles pasta is like calling spam meat.
