I like the Ramen soups but don't have it all the time. Once in a blue. I know all these packaged foods are horrible.

I've never had Ramen before. We try to stay away from processed foods with a lot of chemicals in them. I certainly don't want to try it after reading all the bad stuff that's in it!

There are many Americans of Korean descent, it shouldn't be surprising; America is a great melting pot. Plus, it's super cheap, I know as a starving college student I survived on Top Ramen.

Noooooooooooooooooooooooooooo!!!...I don't want to read the article. Ramen was a staple snack growing up (I occasionally eat it now)...I thought it was just two ingredients, flour and seasoning. :'(

No I don't like Ramen noodles.  I think they are the most disgusting thing I have ever tried to eat.  I have tried several different flavors and haven't found one I like.

That was very interesting I always knew they had a lot of salt but I didn't know about the other stuff, thanks for sharing.

Don't buy the Top Ramen. That brand is junk. Get the "Maruchan Ramen". You can taste the difference. I don't care what other people say about them. Neither the above article will change my mind. Maruchan Ramen is my favorite especially the Beef and Oriental flavors.

At  least once a week for a meal.  i';; try and read the negative article later, thanks

Ate it all the time growing up. Nowadays, I'll eat it only if there's absolutely nothing else to eat in the house - once every 5 or 6 months. The last time ate some was about 4 months ago. There's too much sodium and I try to limit my process food intake.

I used to eat ramen quite a bit back when I was in high school and college. Lately, I rarely ever eat it because of the high amount of sodium and I'm trying to watch what I eat.

If I have at home and need a quick meal I like making it.

I'm in the NOT reading group.  I eat Ramen Noodles so I don't want to spoil it for myself.

I love them, but they are not good for you. I eat them every so often, like every 4 months.

It is tasty and inexpensive.The salt though is way up there so not good for you at all.Eat it now and then but not often.

It's just noodles.  It does have a lot of sodium.  I know they have said it takes a long time to digest.  But if that's all you have to eat then it doesn't really matter.  It's cheap and it's good.
Title: Re: So, you like Ramen?
Post by: CharmedPhoenix on April 24, 2015, 03:03:04 pm
I've had it, but I'll never eat it again.  It's a processed food with MSG in it.  MSG can cause asthma symptoms.  I have a friend who's husband is very allergic to it.  When I was a caregiver I had a client with COPD who's son cooked with Accent (pure MSG) until one morning, after a chicken dinner with Accent the night before, when his father couldn't eat his breakfast because he was too busy gasping for air.  >:(

I love ramen I just don't eat it very often. My favorite flavor is creamy chicken and has been since childhood and I'm 28 now.

Better not knowing... There are a lot of foods that are bad for you... Hot Dogs/bacon have sodium nitrate, ramen have MSG, gluten  blah blah... It's okay to eat them once in awhile, just not make it your daily diet

Personally, I'd rather know what I'm eating, so that when my body reacts, I'll know what did it.
And avoid that food/product next time.

We do not eat Ramen noodles these days, because it is not good for you.

Post by: catchow on April 26, 2015, 12:10:32 pm
I do now and again, I like it the way your supposed to make it, along with pouring off the water, adding butter and the seasoning pack
Title: Re: So, you like Ramen?
Post by: carolhall1031 on April 26, 2015, 01:57:13 pm
I think a lot of the things this article says are bad are in the seasoning pack.  I "never" use the seasoning pack but cook the noodles and ate seasoning from my cupboard.

I love ramen, but I don't eat it very often. I'm hesitant reading the article, but I figure if I don't indulge too often with ramen I should be fine. I can always mix with healthier things when I do eat it. Nowadays, I do eat udon moreso.

Yes I like Ramen but I only eat it when I have a taste for it, or when I don't know what I want to eat.
