Cup/bowl noodles, for those who regularly eat them because it's cheap, what's your favorite? Brand, ramen or udon, flavor, etc?

Have less than $100 in checking account and been surviving off of ramen noodles in the past five days...

what toppings/seasonings do you add to your ramen?

Is this the most accepted, but also least healthy food on this board? You have plenty of fast food and junk food threads, but they're also full of equal parts people bitching about them. Instant ramen seems to be liked across the board despite being less healthy than say McDonalds or sugar cereal.

Is there any way to make homemade ramen every day without going broke? I don't have time to make pork bone broth, so I ordered some instant packets off Amazon. My supermarket doesn't carry stuff like udon or dashi or miso, so I am ordering stuff online and it's about $100 per bowl of soup. Is there a cheaper, no msg/good flavor way? In b4 top ramen, it causes cancer apparently and doesn't taste that great.

This ramen is pretty damn good
>No I will not drain the water before adding the condiments because that makes it too spicy
>No I dont care if I'm eating it the wrong way

>tfw have anal leakage because i eat nothing but processed garbage that takes 5 minutes to make or less
how do i save myself, microwaveable shit and instant ramen are just so easy and im so lazy that i can never imagine actually making home cooked meals every day multiple times a day. i swear this bad diet is having a negative effect on mental health, not to mention physical

>at the costco
>see that they have a ramen now
>don't want to make another trip this week so I decide to try it
>it's fucking terrible
>have to finish the whole box before I go to the kroger and buy good normal ramen
No wonder Taiwan gets its ass kicked all day by China if they like this crap.

Anyone know some awesome ways to make cheap ramen a lot better?

Alright /ck/

It's late and I'm hungry. I'm going to make some delicious ramen with bacon fat, low sodium soy sauce, and some red pepper flakes. Very simple. I want to leave some for my wife to take and heat up at work in the microwave. Do you guys recommend separating the noodles so they don't get soggy?

How does /ck/ make its instant ramen better?

The only rule is it has to start with maruchan or a similar brand instant ramen, as a base. Bonus points for being quick/frugal, using normie ingredients, & pics.

My version
>Shrimp instant ramen
>Diced spam (fried)
>1 egg (poached in the noodle water before adding noodles)
>Green onion
>Pepper
>MSG
>Sesame seeds (texture thing)
>Hosin sauce

Why does Ramen smell so disgusting?

>Go to a japanese ramen restaurant for the first time
>It's filled with sip noises
What was the appeal again?

Why is ramen in the US always served at high end restaurants and costs like $15+?
In Japan it's meant to be a cheap casual food like burgers

I throw away the dehydrated vegetables in my ramen packs.

How should I add baby spinach to my ramen

I made shoyu pork belly ramen tonight, how does it look boys?

Chinese noodles, pho or Japanese ramen?

A few months ago I went to a fancy-ish ramen place and mine had a piece of chicken in it, however it was not like any other chicken I have ever tasted. It was very very white and VERY tender and soft, almost extremely so. I forgot to ask how they cooked it, but I've never tried boiled chicken that feels like that, perhaps it was steamed? is anyone familiar with a chicken of this texture? Pic unrelated, it did NOT look or feel like that when i bit into it, that's too dry, it was very very moist.

What does your ramen storage look like?
