i've never had the black one...wanted to try but its insanely expensive here in Hong Kong. Like $3 a pack. I can't justify $3 on a instant noodle hahaha...

oh gawd, my college days, one meal was two shinramyun, 1 boiled egg, 2 sausages, and a seperate bowl of dumplings to mix into the soup after the noodles are done! fuk veggies, that's what dried green onion is for!

Graeme S took the words out of my mouth..read the ingredients list on just about any food product. We put so much shit into our bodies that we can't even pronounce. Still, people now live longer than our predecessors. It seems like everything we consume carries one health risk or another. Fuck it. It's not worth the time and effort to give a fuck. No one gets out of life alive anyway.

It's even worse when people actively avoid stuff that is either not bad for them, or GOOD for them (ie salt and fat) yet still eat copious amounts of garbage, and stuff they can't even pronounce.

At the grocery stores in HK, the brand Knorr is promoting chicken powder as a healthy alternative to salt. Because everyone knows salt is bad for you, right? And chickens are healthy!

But this chicken powder is loaded with MSG and other flavor enhancers. Not that MSG is automatically bad for you, but it isn't good for us, like salt.

:facepalm:

Wow, didn't realize how many RS's don't care about their health by eating so much of this garbage in the first place. Unless you're a university student, there is no reason to be eating this shit.

for 3$ i would say its actually worth a try. a cup of coffee is 2-5$, why not a off-meal for 3$

If people want to eat junk food, let them.

hes talking about the Black edition the one i linked on the first page

it's supposed to have premium seasoning and soup packs... but it doesn't really at all (could make much better soup for less on your own)

skyxx 10-28-2012 01:13 PM

OK I just saw that at the supermarket, about $2.. still pretty expensive for fucken instant noodles

BTW all the Nong Shim they sell here is made in China. How ironic that's the stuff without the carcinogens? :fuckthatshit:
