that's what a fellow in front of me was purchasing at Walmart the other day. I'm not judging. Cheap and delicious and not good for you. LOL.

Add some chunky peanut butter, soy sauce, and Sriracha to your Ramen and it’s downright high brow. 😋

I was once behind a couple buying several cases of wine and a large box of Depends.

And wine is just fermented fruit so, yeah.

I worked two jobs for years. I would go straight from one to the other, but it was only one night a week. I would usually get home around 10pm on those days and would be starving, having not eaten since lunch. I fell into the habit of making up some Ramen because it was fast and a comfort food for me. I made it with some chopped green onion and would whip an egg through the boiling water just before adding the noodles. I could have eaten it every single day. Any time I notice it in the store, I have to remind myself not to buy it anymore. I just may do as you suggested and use broth instead of that flavored sodium packet. I really did enjoy that junk. |

My kids love it. We get it from the Asian grocer along with Choi sum and thinly sliced pork. They make it with either homemade stock or, more often, Cambell’s boxed. My youngest adds narutomaki. Me? Not a fan. |

I've been on a "Hawaiian Chicken" kick lately. Cooked chicken, sautéed carrots and green onions mixed together with cooked ramen noodles, some Yoshida's Hawaiian Sweet & Sour sauce and some pineapple tidbits. So yummy! I could eat it everyday, but I'm the only one in my family that likes it.

My DS, who is a senior in HS, was just saying today "Hey Mom, so I guess I'll need to start getting used to eating Ramen soon." This after he forked down his after school meal (a.k.a. second lunch or first dinner) of microwaveable frozen dumplings and sauce. To my knowledge he's never even tried Ramen noodles - his tastes run more towards highly spiced Indian, Thai, or something of that ilk. Boy is he in for a surprise, I guess I'd better be prepared to buy him a king-sized bottle of hot sauce. I'm sure he'll find a creative way to spice up his Ramen whenever he does try it. |

I love to stir fry vegetables and then add them on top of cooked ramen noodles. I either eat as is or pour over homemade lemon honey or tamari honey sauce. Sooooooo good!

I love me some ramen! I only buy the blue package. We also like to microwave the noodles and then fry them in a pan with some sauce. So good! Add some veggies and you got a decent meal!

I don't believe I have ever tasted Ramen noodles but I do believe you'd need more than one bottle of wine to convince me to try them.
