Who has the time to add water to instant ramen when in college? Or heat for that matter. You dump the powder on the brick and eat it like the big block of crunchy msg it is.


the visual in my mind of someone doing this is just not good. hillarious, but not good. thanks for that. I will have to include this in an as yet unwritten comedy script about the Odd Couple like roommates


It's actually not that bad, its like doritos but chicken flavor.


And a bit oilier. I think I only boiled it 2 or 3 times before switching over fully. If I was in a real rush I'd dump rhe powder in my mouth and eat the brick before the flavor faded. If i had time to boil water I had time to make a $1 totinos pizza.


Everything you just said is literally that bad.


This was a favourite lunch of mine as a kid - something about the texture was very appealing.

We weren’t poor or anything, I just liked it.
