This shit makes me so sick, what the hell.
>According to USDA.gov, one packet of ramen noodles (81g) contains 14g of total fat and 6.58 g of total saturated fat, which is around 33% of your daily recommended intake. Ramen noodles are low in fiber, vitamins, minerals, and protein. They are very filling, but ramen noodles offer almost no nutrition but many calories. To preserve ramen in its storage condition, it is preserved with tertiary-butyl hydroquinone (TBHQ). It is a petroleum-based product that is hard to digest and is also found in pesticides and lacquers. It makes the noodles hard to digest, therefore allowing the body to be exposed to this chemical for a longer period of time than normal. It will also impede your body from taking in other nutrients. You may experience nausea and vomiting if exposed to it for too long.

These fucking meme noodle are gross. If you are spending health points on ramen, why not eat one of the superior ones.
Do zoomers know that tiktoks are just commercials?

Note, they mean instant cup noodles. If you make a bowl of noodles from good ramen (97% wheat, 2% salt, water), a stock cube that isn't overly salty, a splash of soy sauce and a few drops of sesame oil you end up with something around 12g protein, 2g fat, 75g carbs, 3g salt. Instant noodles are stuffed with completely unnecessary oil & sugars that can be as much as 20x the fat level and even higher salt levels.

If you can't handle instant ramen you're weak.

All the "healthy" ones I've tried are nasty, it's like actual hard pasta noodles and soy sauce flavor pack. Maruchan or Top Ramen with some of my own additions is vastly superior.

You're supposed to add almond butter, spring onion and two eggs to ramen. Then it's healthy.

I really don't get those big cups. They always taste and smell like utter ass. Something about the spices they use, they are the stinkiest, nastiest thing ever. Especially the spicy ones. It's like clownshit too, the flavors are so overblown and crazy. You could eat nothing but onions and garlic for days and you still wouldn't be as smelly. The taste they leave in your mouth too!

I dont think anyone ever implied ramen is healthy.

1. Quattro Cheese
1. Carbonara
3. Regular artificial chicken flavor
4. Cheese
5. Jjajang
6. Habanero Lime
7. Kimchi

I want to try the curry flavor, but I haven't seen it in stock at my local markets yet.
Kimchi flavor is probably the only one I wouldn't get again. It's alright with some fresh kimchi thrown in, but kind of boring.

[Anonymous No.20208692]

>>20208681
kimchi version is literally just the regular but comes with a small packet of dried kimchi bits, the laziest spicy gook noodle version so far in my opinion.

[Anonymous No.20208729]

>>20208692
I disagree because the artificial kimchi flavor is a significant downgrade from the regular sauce.
If you add fresh kimchi it's almost like eating a huge bowl of kimchi, which is fine, but I'd rather just eat an actual huge bowl of kimchi.

"Fresh" ramen. Spicy Sesame is great, they also make Soba, and seasonal Hiyashi Chuka, aka cold ramen

The saturated fat is not a health concern.
It's the ones fried in soybean oil you should worried about regarding atherosclerosis.

I make it with only enough water to make the noodles soft. No extra.

Tried the spicy ones and they were pretty boring.

change the water.

boil em in a pot, strain, and when you make the sººp use fresh hot water from a kettle.

the noodre are deep fried in oil and all that fat and cholesterol and excess starch gets boiled out. if you change the water it's way way healthier, and frankly I think it tastes better, you get a nice clear broth.

now obviously all the other mystery chingchong ingredients are really bad for you in terms of salt and lead dust and MSG, but at least changing the water is a good starting point.

oh anon, for over a hundred years chinamen have been spouting nonsense about how you should eat asian food because of how much healthier it is. this is almost entirely dishes that are 30% oil including nooder. and of course the fetishists buy ever word of it and propagate this shit for decades on end.
