It just tastes of salt

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.

It's just salt soup

Is this shit actually good?

>people always say they throw leftover meat or lunch meat into this to spruce it up
Um honestly that's disgusting, boiling meat ruins the texture

Anyone actually eat this? Do you just follow the directions and eat as is, or do you add anything?

Better than this garbage, but you faggots will pretend it's "hip" to eat something with literally zero nutrients or actual meat or vegetable ingredients just because muh quirky weeabooo college kid culture like my adventure time hat and chuck taylors check out my twitch lololol XD rawr

Dude, this garbage is like so much better if you use bouillon cubes and throw the pack away

Do Americans really fetishize this? It just tastes of salt, man. I've heard some people speak of it as if it was ambrosia.

You do twirl this shit up rather than slurping it, right? Also, just letting you know, the best way to eat it is with a bit of jalapeno cheese melted in it.

Uh, yeah, it needs cheese and spice

Thoughts on this Chinese soup? It's real cheap, doesn't seem to be healthy though

Lol. Is this shit good? Seems like salt soup, to me. Rather get Campel's soup.

Cook with half the seasoning, drain 80 percent of the water, continue cooking with the rest of the seasoning, add a tiny bit of cheese

Wa la, you did it right

One key secret is to put ice cubes in it so you can eat it faster

So how much did the Ramen company spend on marketing subliminally? You have generations of so called "health conscious" people now who gobble this shit up and swear it's the most delicious thing ever even if a guilty pleasure, but will throw a bitchfit at the mere mention of a McDonalds cheeseburger or chicken nugger for being "fake food", which is far healthier in comparison.

Put cheese in it and drain the water

I'm pretty poor ATM. Can I make something like Mac N Cheese with Ramen? I got a log of Velveeta cheese. I was thinking,

>boil Ramen
>drain Ramen
>put in baking pan
>put Velveeta cheese on top
>bake till a brown starts to form on top

How will it taste?

Do you eat this? Seems like hardened oil cooked in salt water honestly.

I realize apparently many people grew up eating this often, these asian style noodle soup packages. I never did, in my house it was always mrs. grass soup pretty much. That being said, I've long known people who are in love with these noodle soups and claim them to be super delicious, why are they so revered? I'm trying it now for the first time, the beef variety, it seems alright for a pinch but I'm struggling to find the flavor people seem to rant and rave about

ITT we play a custom ramen recipe game. The rules are...1. the recipe must not extend the time it takes to make the ramen the default way by more than a minute 2. it must be made with common/household ingredients.

Here is Anon's spicy cream beef ramen
>Beef ramen
>Boil water, cook the noodles until done
>Pour three fourths of the water out into the sink
>Add half the seasoning packet, and a very liberal dusting of ground cayenne pepper, at least one fourth of the amount in the seasoning packet
>Add one fourth of a slice of American cheese
>Stir well

Wa la

ITT ramen style only if you alter it

Beef ramen
Cayenne pepper powder
Drain water before any flavor
Add shredded cheese

Eating style?
I use a fork to twist it Italian style, yes I don't slurp. I find it unpleasant when people do if they are too obnoxious about it.
