Share you ramen eating habits.

I don't eat it because the large amounts of 6 different types of sodium gives me the feeling of disorientation and psychosis. My pupils get wide as fuck, I feel dizzy, etc.

Yes, just from eating top ramen, I don't know what's wrong with me. Doesn't happen with any other food on Earth I've ate.

I've perfected a minimalist vegan diet based around oatmeal, brown rice, and lentils. You shut-ins don't need anything more.

Picture in the OP: You're practically making real ramen so you may as well just get some real fuckin noodles by the end point?

I spend about 25$ a month on food and I don't eat shit like instant noodles. But this is a weeabo thread and not a poor thread.

Yes, noodles usable in ramen. As in, noodles that have the same texture and taste as "ramen" noodles.

Make them yourself, or buy them off amazon, not that I've ever actually checked to see if amazon sells them.

I've used this recipe to make the noodles from very basic kitchen foodstuffs and it definitely works well. It looks like a lot of effort to go through but as with most meals after a few times making it it becomes really easy.

Your local Chinatown often has fresh noodles for sale. Even those dried ones are better than "ramen" packets

to eat a half decent meal.

Anyway, get one. It doesn't even need to be a good one, you don't need a super pro ceramic blade when you only prepare meals with it twice a week.

And protip: you can keep them sharp with the ceramic on the bottom of a coffee mug.

If you're willing to put in that much effort and money for your ramen, then you should eat something else.

And even if you are poor as shit, you shouldn't eat ramen. Eat oats. Less flavour, (add some honey and it's sweet), but it's more nutritious, just as cheap, and won't kill you.

[Anonymous No.]

>>9174247

You don't need 300g carbs a day fatty, most people don't limit to their needed 120-160g. Ramen noodles are also simple empty carbs that have no vitamin or mineral content -- why not just go eat some table sugar you fuck.

Trans / Sat fat are bad, mono/poly are good (ramen uses shit tier hydrolyzed plant oils and animal fat), it has no fatty acids and has bad cholesterol.

Sodium is bad for you unless you are someone with low blood pressure (hint, you probably aren't) -- enjoy your hypertension.

[Anonymous No.]

>>9176514
nope, your body requires sodium to maintain equlibrium, fat is necessary for proper organ function, and of course it can be converted to glycogen for energy, and carbs are pure energy which of course you need to keep your heart beating, and brain working, along with slapping your fingers agaisnt your NEETboard

Theyre actually all GOOD for you. Just too much of them are bad for you. Like, fucking anything.

Yes. But those are MANDATORY. But people tend to enjoy those too much for their own good which is easily done and becomes death. So kids enjoy saturated fat and carbs with reason.

>It has no fatty acids
LEL, all fat molecules are made of three fatty acids, and glycerol. It just has different kinds of fatty acids, that are saturated with hydrogen. These arent BAD for you, if you eat both kinds that is ideal.
>bad cholesterol
no such thing

>sodium is bad durr

nope, it catalyzes various reactions in your body like other vitamins and minerals. Plus, I already have hypertension because I was born like that nerd, I take medication for it, my blood pressure is fucking golden

[Anonymous No.]

>>9176522
Putting someone on an extremely low sodium diet when they have low blood pressure only lowers it by a very insignificant amount. Nutritional experts just pretend that it's enough to be successful.

You should only worry about your sodium levels if you're taking so much in a short time that you will die from electrolytic imbalance, which will only happen if you chug soy sauce or something.

And also if you're pissed off by the water retention.

who fucking cares? Just because it doesnt contain every fucking nearly negligible micro nutrient doesnt make it bad for you.

It's energy, and it's also necessary for proper organ function. Without consuming fat and cholesterol, you couldnt even produce hormones, all hormones are cholesterol based.

Fat is good for you, stop believing idiotic pop-science that gets published on the new york times, the telegraph and your local news.

Seriously, you'll probably kill yourself before you're 40, why do you care about micronutrients?

[Anonymous No.]

>>9176566
He wasn't defending ramen in particular.

Vegetables are mostly carbohydrate, so why do you support them and hate on carbs in the same breath?

Also, many vegetables are nutritionally devoid and only help with making you take huge shits.

"hurr eat fruits and vegetables" is shitty housewife advice. Some specific fruits and vegetables have nice micronutrient profiles, but not all of them. Apples in particular are worthless.

By making people shit/feel good about their sugar intake depending on which type.

Fiber is extremely overrated and you don't need it. In fact, I'd say the reason it became so popular was people found that their assholes turned into half-functioning soft-serve machines when they radically cut down on their intake of fat.

What the fuck? Apples are sugar, fruit and fiber. Like many fruits. They are shitty for your teeth because of said sugar. You'd have to eat something like 10 apples to fulfill your RDI of a single micronutrient, I believe.

If you think I'm making this up, why don't you look up the publicly available USDA nutritional information on apples, instead of assuming you must be in the right because of what your mother told you about apples and doctors?

good news for you, all the most micronutrient filled, and calories concentrated foods in the world are the cheapest. Eggs, rice, whole milk, bread, vegetables. Cheapest, and most nutritious food, all you could ever need. Add in some spice and sauce which is cheap as fuck and it tastes decent too.
