Backpacking ramen is where you smear it with lard and then sprinkle the flavor packet on .

We used to just crush it up in the bag and add the flavour.

They renamed it to "soy sauce" flavor in recent history. I went searching for "oriental" flavor because it's vegetarian (no chicken!) and had to just go by color.

Reminder that ramen is technically soup.

If you go to the highlands in PNG I HIGHLY recommend packing a bunch of Maggi noodles for bribes/gifts etc. It's like currency there.

Huh. Walmart and Amazon carry "soy sauce" but like every southern grocery store (Publix, Food City, Ingles) is "oriental".

This clearly goes all the way to the

I assure you, everything Maggi tries, IndoFood does better.

IndoMie's mi goreng is the ultimate instant ramen. IndoFood even makes a brand of ramen specifically made to be eaten raw, crushed, and mixed with the sauce packet called Anak Mas.

just go explore your local asian grocery, i'm sure they have half a dozen instant noodles to your liking.


also, instant ramen/noodles are all fully cooked but then flash fried for reconstitution. it's fine to eat them raw.

i won't because I'm not an impoverished latchkey kid, but you do you.

it still says "contains small amounts of naturally occurring glutamates" so there's still some good poo poo in there, it's not just the manufactured stuff. also I wish poo poo like doritos had to be all "NO MSG" but since it's not asian they don't have to worry about racist assholes.

It's by far one of the dumbest things on earth. There's more MSG in a tomato than in several plates of food from a Chinese buffet but racist boomers decided this "mysterious chemical from the far east" is why they were sick (and not from all the leaded gas fumes and leaded drinking water they were consuming).

Meanwhile MSG is the legit best thing you can have in your spice cabinet.

Here in Arkansas I've only seen soy sauce flavor even in the little grocery stores so I dunno what happened. Either way it tastes the same.

Less sodium by weight (approx 1/3) And the umami makes up for the salt.
Youd need less of it than salt to produce similar effects is the idea.

Not trying to stoke dumb poo poo about MSG but this is just straight up wrong. A quick google says a medium sized tomato has like 100-150mg, which is probably in the range of what you'd add to a standard plate of food as seasoning. But multiple plates + cheap restaurants love to load up the salt and MSG + there's already naturally occurring MSG in the food itself, nah.

I'm going to pretend I was exaggerating instead of loving up the conversion of tsp to mg so I look like less of a dumbass.

But still if MSG "gave you a headache" then you'd be hospitalized by something like ketchup or tomato paste.

Yeah the exact same boomers who complain about the Chinese buffet making them feel "bloated" or whatever would probably consider a Greek salad with twice as much sodium to be a "light" meal.

If they don't want to feel bloated they probably should consider not eating a kilogram of vegetable oil and carb. I personally just lean into the bloat, this is an acceptable side effect of a succulent Chinese meal imo.
