I still need to try out all those flavors. The only one I have ever had is beef. It is alright.

If you eat that much Ramen noodles, your growth must be stunted. Man is not equiped to handle that much grains, that's why grain eaters don't grow to be as big and tall.

Chili, only because it seems to have the strongest flavor out of any that Nissin offers. I love the imported varieties that have a really strong flavor 'cause it tastes damned good, and you know it's gotta be sinfully unhealthy for you! :D

As long as you can't buy it at a major grocery store it should be ok.

Japanese and Korean brands of ramen tend to be the best (authentic).

I don't recommend using the whole contents of any flavor packet in those things. About half gives plenty of flavor and you don't need all of that extra salt and stuff. Just my two cents :)

beef, baby


i love to eat them raw. just dump the seasoning right on top of the block in the package and crunch away. Gotta drink a lot of water with it though.

<< I've never seen Cajun Chicken, but I'm sure it would get my vote if I had. :) Until then, I'm going with Oriental.

What? We had Cajun when you were down here in October! Otherwise I would agree with you on Oriental. :)

2 Ways i like to eat it:

#1 - Boil the noodles, drain the water, then add the seasonings to the noodles.



#2 - Crumble the noodles in the bag, add seasoning, shake bag, and eat flavored ramen chips.

Sorry, I wasn't paying attention to the flavors ... of the noodles anyway.

I thought Instant Ramen was broke food only in Japan... But whenever I go to Japan on business I've only had great Ramen in those backstreet places - the sort of place where they guard the soup recipe with their lives... It's hilarious to know it's broke food in the US as well. Well, it's better than a Spam sandwich...

Do you have the freeze-dried fresh noodles over there? The type you have to boil separately to the soup? Definitely superior.

Strangely enough, the best Ramen I had in Europe is in Paris - just off the Rue Faubourg St Honore, which is like the chicest street in town. To see traditional Ramen shops (complete with comic books) there is very amusing.
