Heh heh... indeed... yum. I'm thinking about making up a big batch and adding some chopped SPAM. :eek::D

Chicken Cup-O-Noodle, small hand full of cashews, season to taste with Pico Pica and low sodium soy sauce. Cashew Chicken

On those crazy days, Shrimp Cup-O-Noodles, small hand full of peanuts, small amount of Sriracha (Hot) sauce then season to taste with Pico Pica and low sodium soy sauce. Kung Pow Shrimp.

A meal for under a buck.

For those of you who haven't been in a So. Cal. jail you should try a "spread".
Cup-O-Noodle soup, mixed with a bag of cheese popcorn, add salsa and peanuts. Mix vigorously with a cup of hot water. Roll tightly and let sit for ten minutes.

This is a treat shared by the Hispanic inmates as sort of a social event. Everyone who contributes shares in the "feast".

Chili Lime/Shrimp from a standard grocery store or Chapagetti from the asian market

BTW, I fed Spam to a bunch of people at a wine & cheese (& meat) party a couple of weeks ago. I told 'em it was pate.

Ramen kept me alive during my late teen, well into my 20's. I probably would have starved if it weren't for 10/$1 Ramen.

Love it. Ramen with cream of mushroom soup, Ramen with eggs mixed in, ramen with hot dogs, mushrooms...
I've even put a shot of whiskey in Ramen while it was boiling. Try it...

Picnate Beef for me.

I'll usually eat 3-4 at a time.

Sapporo Ichiban.

But it's ramen. When you're hungry enough, it all tastes about the same.

Ramen is okay for what it is, but there's nothing like fresh udon. BTW, the quintessential movie about Japanese noodles: "Tampopo".

favorite is either the Kim Chi or Hot & Spicy from Nong Shim...most of the times with just whatever's in the seasoning packets, sometimes i cook them in a pot and add some of the veggies mentioned as well as egg, or whatever leftovers there are in the fridge.

JJ 911SC 05-06-2011 09:04 PM

Drain, some margarine (or butter) and chilly flake

For convenience, ramen with a tablespoon or two of salsa in the winter, chopped up tomatoes in the summer, maybe some roasted peppers or whatever from the garden.

Do they really recycle the styrofoam when I put it in the apropriate barrel?

Fat chance :(:mad::(

A few years ago, our city "paid with our taxes" recycle pick-up contractor, pick the black and white bin at 3 time the cost of normal garbage and dump it a the local garbage dump where the normal garbage went.

Only took the &^%$#@ city official, 3 years + to figure that one out :rolleyes::rolleyes::rolleyes:

I had enough of the hot water with noodles in a styrofoam cup to last a few life time. I still like them but now we go out to very specific noodle places. My favorite are the hand made noodles (we go once every week or two). They call it hand torn noodles. Also, there's a place 1/2 hour from our house that make the noodles with a huge bamboo just like they did for hundreds of years. Both are Chinese noodles. you can taste the difference for sure. We also go to Little Tokyo for ramen. My kids love noodles.

Here's a heart attack waiting to happen. Ramen with whatever soap base(they all taste the same to me), add fried eggs, and a large amount of spam. Add dumplings of your choice to the soup.

Pho, we also do a couple times a month. Broken rice with shrimp paste, yum.

I suppose if you used them in some recipe in which you poured off the boiling water after stirring for a few minutes, you might be able to reduce it somewhat.

Interesting. Almost looks like fried rice in the pic.

I don't eat this dried supermarket stuff often at all, but when I do, I follow the partial flavoring packet + add my own veggies and spices approach. Some of them have a surprising amount of fat in addition to the astounding sodium levels.

Near my office there's an Asian neighborhood with numerous places serving fresh udon, soba, curry 'spaghetti' and so forth...now that I do eat.

Our central-american housekeeper eats this stuff for breakfast sometimes...go figure.
