Which is your favorite? Do you add anything to it? Do you eat it alone or with something else? How do you prepare it? Do you actually eat it as a soup? My favorite, hands down, is the chicken (: Sometimes, I pour in pickle juice or hot sauce. Sometimes, I throw in some bacon bits. I love eating them with a shrimp eggroll. I cook mine on the stove, then drain the water. I don't like eating it as a soup. The little kids I use to babysit had me prepare them in the mircowave, which I had never thought of doing! But, personally, I didn't think it looked as good. I love ramen noodles, I could live off of them! :P

I don't really like it at all anymore. I used to like it a lot but I've been eating a lot of it lately because funds are low. So yeah, I'm sick of eating it now :'(

It is a super cheap meal - I've had my mom get me packs of them, and I'll eat on them for a week! I don't think I'll ever get sick of them :P Maybe you should try eating them in different ways. Like, I add in random stuff and it gives them new flavors. Chicken with pickles/pickle juice is my super fave, haha. I eat weird combinations, lol.

I add things into them sometimes, like meat or vegetables, but really I just am sick of them any way :(

I have never liked ramon noodles. My husband likes them he only eats the beef ones. We don't add anything to them when we make them for him. Just the noodles and the beef sauce. I have bought the chicken flavor for my kids to try I think they might liek them.

I like the hot and spicy lunch on the go Ramen. It is super spicey but I love it. My husband likes the beef and so do my kids. I think them, but I just love the spicey taste most of all. You can't get anything to hot for me.

Ah, I don't think I've had the hot and spicy, I'll def. look for that one (: The hotter, the better. I just ate a packet of the beef - I'm not a big fan of that one. I don't think it has much flavor to it.

I love the chicken and I like it sort of soupy. My husband goes for the hot and spicy! I have a grandchild who could eat Ramen noodles every meal! He likes the hot and spicy as well. I cook mine on top of the stove. I think it's better than cooked in the microwave.

I agree with you--I like the chicken (with the liquid drained, and then adding just 1/2 the seasoning packet). I've never added anything additional to them, but maybe I'll try it. I also have a great chinese chicken salad recipe where I toast the ramen noodles in the oven, and use the seasoning in the dressing (the oriental ones, not the chicken). I usually make that for potluck events; everyone loves it!

I personally prefer the beef flavor. Like you, I use the stove to make it but I save the broth/soup/water. I fill half a bowl with the ramen and then put some more ramen on top of my white rice. Then I top it with a fried egg, over medium, and when the yolk oozes out, delicious happens!

That does sound delicious, I might have to try that. (: I think most people use the stove! I've never heard of using the microwave! They crush up the noodles, then pour them into a bowl and pop it into the microwave for about.. 5mins. I don't think it looks very appetizing that way.

my favorite ramen noodles are chicken, beef, and seafood flavors.. if i have sesame seed oil i use to put some on it, and it taste even better.. i always keep a cup or two of instant ramen with me in case i have cravings specially on a lazy day.. heheheh...
