Gonna have to give up ramen noodles

[Reverend Conehead]

Dang it, ramen noodles are cheap and easy to prepare, but I was just reading up on the net about how crappy they are for your health. Turns out if you eat ramen every day you might as well eat McDonalds every day. Crap. It's so easy just to pour hot water into a cup of ramen and have an instant and pretty good meal. gonna have to find another way to eat on the cheap.

Yeah, I've read that as well. Sucks. Ramen was my go to food in college. Back then they were seven for a buck!

 

[maxdogg]

Damn I love Ramen also but I backed way off of it because its so bad for you.

 

[PJTHEDOORS]

Love cup noodles.

 

[MichaelWinicki]

Yep. Might as well mix several tablespoons of salt in hot water and down the hatch it goes!

Wait, you just know figured out Ramen noodles are loaded with sodium?

The flavor packet is loaded. Not the noodles themselves. The noodles actually have no nutritional value. But they sure are tasty at 3am after a late gig!

Considering after what I've just read about MacDonald's meat (Rense.com),,, I'll stick with Ramen.

That's gotta be 'fake news'

just half the flavor packet.

You can eat cheap and healthy if you just buy fresh ingredients from the supermarket and cook every day (or every few days and make big portions). I used to eat fast food and cheap take-out all the time. I actually saved a lot of money when I started buying nothing but "expensive" organic stuff from overpriced supermarkets like Whole Foods and Trader Joe's. And if I were to buy the non-organic stuff from more affordable supermarkets, I would've spent even less money. My point is, cooking at home, even with not so cheap ingredients, is always cheaper than going out even to a cheap restaurant. Also, fresh healthy ingredients from the supermarket are about the same price as cheap non-food like ramen noodles and Velveeta cheese paste.

That is true.

Sounds like a lot of work.

You're right. That's what I gotta commit to doing. When you go for convenience, something's gotta give, and it will either be your health or your wallet or both.

Yeah, cheap processed crap never fills me up unless I eat a ton of it. And even then I'm hungry two hours later.
