Killing me Salting

While riding the train home tonight I noticed a rather nicely dressed black woman. She was in her mid-fifties from the looks of her. Girlfriend was dressed to kill. I watched her for awhile something I do a lot to strangers but she didn’t take notice of me. She was carrying a white supermarket plastic bag which she reached into and pulled out a box of Ramen Noodles. I was in a state of shock all that came to mine was she was “Killing herself Softly” or should I say “Killing herself Salty”. You know Romen Noodle is so ghetto. So do not front. Man color folks sure do love those Romen Noodles but do you know eating one of those quickie killer contain about 1600mg of Sodium and it is recommended that we only consume less than 2,400 mg per day of sodium. Now that is just one sitting. No wonder so many of us are walking around with hypertension. Then she took out a folk then I almost died I thought she was about to open it up and eat it right there and then but she didn’t. I think I would have passed out laughing if she did. I know it’s a cheap meal I use to eat them too but when I read what was in it I realize that we are killing ourselves by eating all that shit. I know all the colored folks have had them some Romen Noodles so do not front I bet half of you have some in your cupboards right now. So all I am saying is please, please, please people lets get away from that. Anyway gonna get me some noodles now damn I hungry. Joke!!

hey hot stuff, happy 2006!

i am not an american style ramen noodle eater. i only eat the neoguri style ones.

ramen is actually dried noodles for the idea of being eaten by astronaughts. kogome taught me that.

Sometimes you need a cheap quick meal and Ramen hits the spot. Everything in moderation.

It ain't a black thing... It's an economic thing. College days, we'd get those for a few pennies. That's all us, college students could afford. Die from it? perhaps, but everything's gonna kill us. So at least die happy.

LMAO...my first thought was that everything can kill us, it just about moderation! But that's already been said.....

Ain't nuttin' wrong with the Ramen! Just don't eat it all day everyday!

And yeah I have a few packs in my pantry! LOL

The sodium is in the packets. If I do find myself eating Ramen, I usually only use half the packet and then I drain them out. Hopefully that helps cut the sodium.

I SOOOO was going to write a post about Ramen Noodles. I didn't really care until last year. My Chemistry teacher showed us how it will make your heart explode.

But I LOVE the shrimp flavor. (LOL)
