Y'all know that ramen noodles are deep-fried, right? Lots of unhealthy stuff about that. And the flavour packs are a nightmare of industrial chemicals.
I agree, the noodles are great. I eat them with a spoonful of real chicken broth/paste, seasame oil, black sesame seeds, and a few seaweed flakes.
My kids love these and will gladly eat them dry, sprinkling the flavour sachet over the noodles as they eat them (not the ones in a cup, the ones that come in a packet that are like a hard rectangular block of dead worms). Every time one of them responds to the question "what would you like for lunch?" with "can I have a noodle cake?", I throw up a little in my mouth. Still - cheap, no cooking and no plates needed. I make them eat them outside, so no cleaning up either.
