eating ramen is a psyop

[AlexBrown84]

ramen, cheap food invented by nissin foods post ww2 in order to feed japan cheaply with minimal nutrients

and now today white people circle jerk themselves eating ramen (imagine spending $1200 on flights, $1000 on a hotel, to go to japan and eat ramen just lol)

no wonder i never liked it when i was in japan

don’t eat it

Ramen is fine as long as it has eggs and meat

Never understood why Japanese-style ramen is so fucking expensive in Asia. You can get a bowl of beef mami for 40 pesos in the Philippines, but go to a Japanese place there and they want 200 pesos for a bowl of ramen.

you are correct. raman was exactly that. wow, cerebral. Raman actually has the bare essential nutrients a person needs daily. it's supposed to hold if memory serves, 1000 calories per packet. But that may have changed now a days, but the US made them post ww2 hold 1000 calories per packet. And it was because of the food supply shortage and it was an easy and cheap way to feed alot of people. Now they rice it up, putting eggs in it, and all sorta shit.

I personally don't eat it myself either.

but in asia land its hard to NOT eat it. Any "noodle" soup/stirfry whatever the fuck has it in it.

if i remember, raman has 1000 calories per packet (or was supposed to) and it was supposed to be able to feed a person, one meal, per day and you could survive. And yes, it was after ww2. But i mean, we can look at any food and see how "gourmet" internet culture has riced up everything.

Personally i don't eat raman cause it's carby as fuck. But hey, when i was struggling in school i did it.

Ramen is actually the Chinese dish lamian 拉麵. This is why ramen is written in katakana, it's a loanword. Sure, it was popularized in Japan in the 20th century, but the WW2 invention was instant noodles, not kitchen made ramen.

Ramen is fucking delicious and I will die on this hill. It is a carb and salt bomb tho

DO NOT take girls out to ramen after a night out because it is synonymous with "good night", in addition to the vibe being killed from the restaurant she will get super tired from the carb saturation. Just say you have ramen at your place
