Maruchan "Oriental" flavor is the GOAT

The Anime Liker posted:Maruchan "Oriental" flavor is the GOAT 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. knuthgrush has a new favorite as of 06:09 on Jun 11, 2022 |

Walmart and Amazon carry "soy sauce" but like every southern grocery store (Publix, Food City, Ingles) is "oriental". Formulating a conspiracy theory now. This clearly goes all the way to the (Also how dare you not add MSG. MSG is better than sex and booze.)

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.

It's great if you're trying to cut the amount of salt in your diet and don't want to eat bland food too.

50/50 salt/msg is a good replacement for just straight salt.

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.
