Yeah, I'm a little confused... you mean Cup Noodles, or the bagged Top Ramen?

Cup Noodles so ruled, although I haven't had'em that former staple of my diet in soooo long. :(

Top Ramen is OK, not any worse than any of the other bag o' stiff noodles out there. I have to admit I eat these often as snacks or for lunch occasionally. Hey, 15 for a buck is a price I just can't pass up. When I have more disposable income--that doesn't find itself going towards G/F, car, PCs or house--I'll be paying a visit to Ranch 99 Market and buying the more "fresh" stuff. :D

Get it directly from the source. :D

1) Minced Meat & Spinach 2) Roasted Rib Peking Style
3) Beef & Veggies 4) Nagasaki Seafood
5) Korean style 6) Shrimp & Seafood
7) Schewan Style Spicy Beef

Maybe I should sell them on ebay?

Yeah - Shin Ramen kicks ass - Korea is the king of ramen IMO.
(Not necessarily a good thing, but . . ..)

you can't go wrong with the general principle that the less english there is on the instant noodle package, the better tasting it'll be. that being said, i'm a big shin ramyun fan myself ... (for spicy food fans)

WTF is nissin ramen?
And "Top Ramen" is pretty disgusting.

Stick to the Japanese (Saporo Ichiban) or the Korean (Shin Namyun) brands. For god's sake that eat that Top Ramen, it doens't deserve to be called "Ramen"

The real challenge is Korean vs Japanese ramen.

I've had both and they're delicious compared to Nissin.

Salt, yes .. If I read this bowl of shin noodles properly, theres 100% of your daily salt intake in one bowl ... fat, 24% dv , but thats not too bad if you are making that one of your meals.

I've had ramen before but i can't remember what kind.

It was the stuff that comes in a bag, not in a cup. Wasn't too bad, but I didn't get too excited about it.

I recommend this ramen if you haven't tried it. I has
a crispier textures than others. That place is pricey though.

There's an awesome bowl 'o noodle from a company called "Thai Kitchen" Blows any Ramen away.

Take a look at the fat content on Ramen... it's huge for little nutritive content...

The thai kitchen are $0.99 a piece.... but soooooo woth it.
