Spike ,'Sleeper'
Off-topic discussion. Wanna talk about corsets, duct tape, or physics? This is the place. Detailed discussion of any current-season TV must be whitefonted.
The problem with that, though, is both storage and being able to budget the $10 straight off for bulk.
Yeah, I think my worst dietary situation was when I was sharing your standard dorm refrigerator with 16 other people. In a country where ordering a salad got you a leaf of iceberg and a slice of tomato.
I also went the mac and cheese/pot pie route instead of ramen. During the early '80s, Winn Dixie's store brand of M&C was 25 cents a box. Butter/margarine on sale would last forever, and water substituted nicely for milk.
I still do this! Except I call it breakfast!
Heh.
I think that might have been from the same person who passed along her father's advice to drink Chivas on dates -- it's expensive, so the guy won't get you liquored up, and you (18 year old girl "you") won't like it that much, so you won't get yourself liquored up, either...
I still eat ramen. But not with anything other than draining it then stir frying the noodles so they are crunchy.
So - ramen people: do you use those flavor packets? or toss them?
Use them!!
I drain the water, and use some of the flavor packet on the noodles. Also a little sesame oil, if I was not fortunate enough to get the chicken sesame flavor. YUMMERS.
When I OD'd on ramen, my tolerance of the flavor packets was the first to go....

This too! Except it's Glenlevet, and it's not so much that I don't like the taste, it's that they figure it's a waste of time because I'll drink them under the table.
I use the packets. I also boil it down until it's riiiiight before mush. so, it's less soup and more slushy noodles.
