some things don’t change
I still like Oodles of Noodles. I don’t know where this "ramen" word came from - to me, it will always be "Oodles of Noodles." I like to take frozen broccoli florets and shrimp and boil them along with the noodles. I usually don’t put the entire packet of seasoning in like I used to, because of the sodium content. It’s for that same reason that I don’t drink the "broth" after scarfing the noodles. But it still tastes just as good. And it’s still cheap enough to keep as a staple in the cupboard for those times when you want something quick and you don’t want to get take-out (or can’t afford it, ‘cause you’re student-poor, or forcing yourself to live paycheck-to-paycheck ‘cause you’re so busy saving the bulk of your money). Now I might joke about how there’s no nutritional value whatsoever in a bowl of Oodles of Noodles. Or about how anything that can feed you for a week for less than five dollars is probably likely to kill us. But in my heart of hearts, I heart Oodles of Noodles. Had some for dinner last night. And they hit the spot.
If you share my thing for Oodles of Noodles, then here’s a treat for you!
