What's the best instant ramen right out of the package without adding anything to it? If you say Sapporo Ichiban, Maruchan, Top Ramen, etc. your opinion is worthless. I personally haven't tasted anything that's come close to Nong Shim and my favorite type is the Neoguri Mild. I don't know why Shin Ramyun gets so much praise, I don't see anything remarkable about it. Those Neoguri noodles though...holy fuck.

You eat that garbage, so your opinion is worthless. Stop buying this disgusting garbage and shop like an adult.

It should be in any man's interest who would consider himself a person who appreciates food to search for the best even such a category as lowly as instant ramen. Admittedly, you would right to claim that it can never prepare to fresh noodles. But why scoff at dried rice noodles when I'm sure you don't scoff at dried semolina noodles?

>> No.4055494

>>4055487
It's not even the noodles, it's the soup that's so chocked full with msg and sodium that makes it shitty. Also there's a huge difference between just dried noodles and deep fried or other ways pre-treated ones.

With that said I enjoy some instant ramen once in a while, but if you honestly are going to be a douche about some food item then this is perhaps the lowest point you can choose.

It doesn't come with a sodium packet. Instant ramen is garbage and I'm not bored enough to sit here and bicker with you while you compare turds.

I didn't know you could be a hipster about something as awfully dull and uninspiring as instant ramen.

>>4055487
It's not on the level of dried semolina noodles, it's more on the level of those box chicken noodle soup things, the ones that come with dried noodes, chicken bouillon packet and some oily ball of fats and flavorings. I buy those things on occasion, they're handy to have when you are too sick to cook.

Again, I don't think that word means what you think it does. I've expressed preference for a certain brand of noodles and distaste for other ones. How retarded are you to think that hating shitty brands of instant ramen makes someone a hipster? I guess just because I prefer pasta with homemade tomato sauce over sketti I'm a hipster, right?

Fucking idiot.

No the equivalent is you preferring sketti made with heinz tomato ketchup while calling other who prefer it with some other brand of ketchup as imbeciles.

You've clearly never tried instant ramen. And if you have, you've only tried the shitty brands. It's the only reason you could be so ignorant to think there is only negligible difference between brands.

I like the nong shim potato noodles. Instant noodles all pretty much taste the same, so it's the texture that appeals more to me.

I studied in Japan a year and they've got some crazy instant ramen going on there (though frozen ones are generally better, dried ones have alot of quality). With that said, it's not high class eating and being a fucking a douche about the superiority of them is just fucking stupid.

I realize acronyms like "lol" have long since lost all meaning, but I'm literally laughing out loud at the concept of someone who is such a hipster that he thinks his instant freeze dried ramen preferences are equivalent to home cooking.

Pic related, maybe? I've yet to buy it, but it costs near $5 per bag and each bag is only one serving, so... if it's not good, it's at least a (veblen) good.
It's abalone/sea snail broth powder with dried slices of abalone/sea snail.

As for one I've actually tried: pic related, the one on top with the girl with the red hair. That's the best packaged/instant ramen I've ever had, ever. Now that I live in America, though, I find it impossible to get a hold of and have not had it in five years.
Unrelated, but I also miss Sealect tuna in green curry.
