Adrift within the vortex of my imagination.

The OP article doesn't really list ramen, the 18 year old is living on instant noodles not ramen.

Proper ramen has a lot of add-ins and it is a staple diet for many in the far east and does them little harm.

n'oublie jamais - It appears I now have to highlight this again.

It is by tea alone I set my mind in motion. By the juice of the brew my thoughts aquire speed, my mind becomes strained, the strain becomes a warning. It is by tea alone I set my mind in motion.

In the US, Ramen means Noodles, they are interchangable.

It is unfortunate that it seems many (probably most) Americans probably wouldn't know real ramen from.... uh, something else that begins with 'r'.... Rudolph the Red-Nosed Reindeer, and probably think of the instant noodle packets when they hear the word.

It is true, When i hear ramen i think instant noodles.
I know it exist, but compared to the availability in most places of ramen compared to noodles, we use ramen as noodles.
Interesting, A bowl of ramen at my work(Instant) costs as much as a burger.

Can I get my Intense Noodles served on the back of a live Kodiak Brown Bear while sky diving? The wolverines are kinda ho hum without the extra adrenaline rush.

Also again here in the states instant noodles are packaged and marketed as "ramen" so we call'em that for the same reason anything else with a label is called what it is.

Behind you

texture based dislikes are quite interesting. My wife hates some textures (spandex and latex, also mushroom and seeds and so forth)

The thing is though, that to actually have a good lifestyle with this sort of dislike is actually quite easy. Smacks of *young child throwing gak fits every time a vegetable is on their plate"

Or, you know what makes more sense? Calling it what they do on the package:

Same, though I usually drain them completely then add the flavoring with some sriracha, and mix.

See, I sometimes do that, then fry up some roast pork with a little honey and white wine vinegar, then add the noodles to the pan.



Stop it! You're making me hungry and I'm fasting today!

So is Teflon. If you buy a new pan for cooking, make sure the bird cage is not near the kitchen.

Especially if making Mexican food.





FYI, if you ever want to try to look for a picture of a bird eating guacamole out of a non-stick pan on Google, don't bother. There aren't any.

Take one of these, fill it with avocado oil, and you have an anti-bird WMD.
