Question Do you like instant noodles?

Do you like noodles/ramen that come from a packet or in a pot/cup that you just add powder flavouring to, such as Supernoodles or Pot Noodles?
Do you add anything to them or just eat them as they are?
What is your favourite brand/flavour?

I like them for what they are.

They are satisfying as long as you have reasonable expectations.

It's like eating a hot dog. A hot dog is a hot dog. It's not haute cuisine, it's just a hot dog. Same for ramen noodles. They are what they are, and they have a place in the food world.

Sometimes I just want some ramen noodles and they are good. it's comfort food like hot dogs, or mac and cheese, or peanut butter and jelly sandwiches, it's just cheap easy food.

I like instant noodles.

you have to make sure they are al dente.... you probably over cook them.

if you over cook them they turn into a squishy mess. that's no good. no bueno.

I make perfect ramen noodles, I know exactly how long to leave them in the water. If you had my ramen noodles you'd like them. also i know the perfect amount of salt and pepper to add.

I just finished a bowl of instant noodles myself, they were Aldi own brand - Chow Mein flavour, I had never tried them before and they were surprisingly satisfying, they only cost 20cent too, I usually don't eat own brand noodles, KOKA brand is my favourite, but I will be sure to buy these again.

you know what's really good? add an egg to it. A fried egg on top is scrumdiddlyumptuous.

Supernoodles are really expensive here, they cost like 40 cent more than KOKA noodles, so I have never tasted them. :P

I did enjoy Supernoodles until I took notice of the nutrition values.
