If you don't like oriental-flavored ramen noodles, does that make you racist?

If you don’t like French Lick, Indiana, does that make you a Francophobe?

It would, I suppose, if you couldn’t think of a better reason.

The more reasons to be a francophobe, the better!

Yeah, I know how to spell it. I was just operating on 0 hours of sleep in the last 24 hours. It was a mistake, akin to using the wrong form of “to” or switching two letters in a word or something like that. :smack: Apologies.

I’ve since gotten some sleep.

I don’t buy the instant noodles, I get the different types of noodles and cook them as I need for the recipe I am doing. Lunch yesterday was buckwheat soba with the sesame paste/peanut butter/freshly ground fresh ginger/smashed garlic/soy sauce cold sauce. I cut up some leftover chicken for the protein boost and made a bed of a small head of buttercrunch lettuce for it. I was going to make my usual chopped salad, but mrAru was making the soba for something he wanted and I couldn’t resist. I did chopped salad for dinner instead.

We go to Ah Dong’s in Hartford for stuff like noodles and other non US ingredients. We also get rice based spirals, linguine, elbows and farfalle to use instead of wheat based pasta so we can cook for a couple friends who have celiac and IBS.

Apostrophe abuse! And Hey! The fucking poll is still active! In the Pit!

You need the Vegemite flavor.

I’m sexually attracted to French Lick.

First person who makes some crack about the username gets it! I’m not bluffing.

I have lived in the US all my life and am half Ramen Noodle. Although my mom still tells stories of the prejudice she encountered raising a package of Oriental Flavored Ramen Noodles, I can thankfully say that the bigotry seems to be the product of a different time. The vast majority of people I meet today are very accepting of my noodleness.

I used to like Oriental flavoured ramen but then I found I was hungry again ten or fifteen minutes later. This wasn’t a problem when I was a much younger man. Sometimes I might get up and have more six or seven times a night. But nowadays once is usually enough.

I get the Oriental flavor and add green onions, an egg, shrimp, a dash of sesame oil and sirriachi.

That doesn’t work with the other flavors.

So, i’m really tastist I guess.

Ramen noodles give me very best duck.

I don’t like any ramen, Beef, Chicken, Shrimp, Oriental or otherwise.

I’ve tasted a few orientals. And all I have to say is, yum! :slight_smile:

Dude, this is, like, so ‘meta’ snorts flavor packet

The instructions on mine say three minutes. Do you have some sort of weird turbo noodle down there or something?

If I only use half the seasoning packet, does that make me half racist?

Dunno perhaps thing go quicker when you are stavnding on your head;)

How could it take you 2 minutes to cook your ramen when it takes the entire ramen-eating world 3 minutes?

What? I’m sorry I was over there. Did you just say you were a fast cook?

Are we to believe that boiling water soaks into a noodle faster in your kitchen than any place on the face of the earth?

Perhaps the laws of physics cease to exist on your stove.

Were these magic noodles? Did you buy them from the same guy who sold Jack his beanstalk beans? :slight_smile:
