You probably don't know the difference, oh well. Some people like to eat infected corn, too.

Did you know you can cook ramen in your standard home coffee pot? When I was in the Army you couldn't have a hot plate so you had to be creative if you wanted to eat something besides take out or mess hall food or were to broke to order take out. Ramen is super cheap, easy to make, and is actually pretty tasty.

Cheese ramen FTW. If there was anything good I picked up while I was in Korea it was Cheese Ramen, Yakimandu, and orange soda. Yum.

Actually, I wouldn't say that... it probably depends on the altitude that you're cooking them at (and maybe impurities in the water as well).

That being said, my mom used to make it, and she wasn't the world's most consistent cook. Whenever she overcooked it... it was like eating salty mush. After a while it makes you kinda want to vomit.

Hell yea i eat ramen on the daily, usually have it with a grilled cheese sandwich mmm. I use the ramen seasoning and then add some chicken bouillon because they never give you enough. Also add course garlic salt. Ive dabbled in a couple other recipes but this one seems to be my favorite. There are two 'Maruchen' Ramen(the best, better than top ramen) factories in USA and i live 5 minutes away from the VA one =) Sometimes when i drive by i smell the noodles but sometimes its the flavor, guess they make them in shifts.

Hmm. That's not something that I thought about at all...

Here we have pretty hard water and we are around 500 ft above sea level, maybe...

Tomato inside is almost as good as tomato soup with your sandwich. Bacon is too much! I might have to take a nap after that...

I cook it in a pan but add Weiss-sauce (its a German soy sauce type thing) and leaves of spinach and mushrooms to not feel as bad about the high salt content. YUM.
