Roman Noodles

<p>Ramen noodles are low in calories? What did I miss?</p>

<p>"They are super cheap. By a bunch, but don't put the junk flavoring into the pot, instead, use ketcup, or maybe... yogurt? to top it off. Creativity is good, seriously."</p>

<p>that is soooo gross. and im pretty sure its the noodles that contain all the calories and fat, not the soup base. when you make strawberry yogurt ramen noodles, im thinking thats just about as unhealthy as regular ramen noodles.</p>

<p>I know somebody who ate them for a month and died.</p>

<p>You can get these things for like 8 for a buck or sometimes even cheaper. I learned from some of my buddies who have been in prison and with a little midwest ingenuity how to make Ramen noodles that are fattening as hell but taste really good. Just drain all of the water, and mix in cheese, Dortios, a little mayo, the original chicken powder, and some oyster crackers. Very, very good.</p>

<p>that sounds awfully disgusting</p>

<p>I just put all of the powder in and make it normally</p>

<p>then when i'm done with the noodles, i pour out the soup. The soup contains all the sodium. I'm sure all the fat comes from the noodles itself.</p>

<p>I never keep the water in. After I heat it in the microwave I pour out the water and then mix in the flavoring. </p>

<p>Mmm Mmm Mmmm</p>

<p>I think Ill take my chances.</p>

<p>Ramen (chicken flavored, at least) has 380 calories. Put it this way, a box of mac and cheese is 1140 calories.</p>

<p>I had Ramen noodles for lunch two summers in a row and I'm okay... (Although I haven't had any in the past four years and I now work out everyday)</p>

<p>A burger's 1,400 calories do not make 500 calorie french fries innocent. Why should three servings of mac and cheese (one box, which I'll admit to having eaten in one meal) be compared to one snackish serving of Ramen noodles?</p>

<p>man... im hungry now...</p>

<p>The worst part about Ramen is the sodium. The American Heart Association recommends no more than 2400 mg a day, and one serving of the chicken flavored kind has 780 mg, a third of the daily allowance.</p>

<p>Eh, Id still rather eat 380 than over a thousand. Believe me, youre not the only one who eats the whole box of mac and cheese.. Ramens not innocent, but really, what is? (except friggin celery)</p>

<p>I heard your skin turns yellow if you eat them for extended periods of time. They're probably inexpensive for a reason.</p>

<p>I have never heard of that, but I know carrots do. Got Carrots?</p>

<p>Ummm...</p>

<p>Pretty much anything BESIDES ramen noodles.</p>

<p>This is really weird, but since so many people love top ramen, perhaps Im not alone. I like eating ramen dry, uncooked just pieces broken off. They're crunchy and they taste great. Plus they seem to be healthier than greasy chips</p>

<p>we have like 10 packs of the shrimp flavored Ramen noodles in the cabinet and no one eats them...I avoid them because I'm a health freak...I have to stay in shape...</p>

<p>but I used to eat them with soy sauce and all of the powder...mmm...damn they were good...</p>

<p>ramen noodles, are those thr dried, preserved noodles that come with little packets of flavoring and a dried vegetables or occasionally sseafood? I always thought they were fairly healthy or at least not harmful. I eat them once a week.</p>

<p>My schedule at school made supper an impossibility at times, so I kept Ramen around and ate it all the time. So did just about everybody else in my track. I've even seen kids heat it up in a coffee mug on an iron! It's clearly not good for you and you'd better pop a multivitamin along with it if you're looking for nutritional value, but it's something cheap to have on your stomach so you can sleep without hunger pangs. I've never seen anybody turn yellow from it.</p>

<p>You don't turn yellow from eating it once a day in college, along with other stuff. It's more relevant for someone aboard a ship, for example, who doesn't eat anything else for several months.</p>
