ramen noodles are not bad...even if you do have money!:)
I like to make the noodles then stir fry up some veggies and left over meat. its a good quick meal.

Gives you a little bowl to twirl the fork against.

Actually, its so you don't lose any sauce while turning. It also helps you to not wind up the entire bowl.

Chopsticks - anything else feels weird.

And the spoon thing for spaghetti is weird too. You guys are freaks.

I normally just pick up a fistful of the stuff, cram it into my mouth, lick the remainders off my hand, chew with my mouth open, swallow, then belch loudly.


but that's just me :D

When I was a kid we'd just take the whole brick out of the package, sprinkle some of the seasoning packet on it, and eat it like a big cracker... didn't have to cook anything that way.

I knew this guy in college that ate dry ramen. He'd shake some of the seasoning packet onto the 'brick' of Ramen and just bite into it. Pretty gross.

And I eat with a spoon...I just break it up while its still in the bag so its in small pieces.
