These days I stayed in my dormitory all day for my graguation thesis.I don't wanna go outside as i have to change my clothes and put on shoes,and do some make-up.And after i ll have to change again.That's so troublesome and waste time!Lazy girl,but please understand.:D So i saved many bags of instant noodles in room instead and cook it when i am hungry.That's really convenience,i have to say.And it tastes good.I like some flavors,and ate often.But i found myself somekind of bulging tummy.and put on weight a bit : p I like instant noodles when i was a child,even when my mom said it has no nutrition and unhealthy.I still remember that i often secretly to eat this with my brother. How about u?Do u like it?Even it's not nutritious..thanks for sharing..

Yes! I love instant noodles very much! Not only that it's very easy to cook, but also it's less hassle for you to use gas and such just to get yourself something to it. My sister and I are huge fans of instant noodles. We eat it almost every night or midnight. Midnight snack, eh? It's really convenient for us to eat instant noodles when we don't feel like cooking. It really tastes good and satisfies my hunger every time. Happy myLotting!

I used to eat a lot of instant noodles when I was younger but now I try to limit it because somebody told me that it is too bad for the health. But I can resist the spicy canton.

I eat instant noodles a few times every month. They are just delicious. My favorite is chicken flavored, but I also like beef. It's not any everyday thing though...I couldn't stand eating them everyday. As for the nutritional value, well, if you're a healthy person already, you won't need to worry about indulging in a bag of instant noodles every other day. But, to each their own!!

Yes. I enjoy it as much as you do. That was when I'm in my college life. Instant noodle was the only cheap, easy to cook and pretty convenient during my college life. Tastes good and satisfying. After finished my college, I seldom ate instant noodle anymore, because at home there's always dishes available in meal time. Sometimes I feel like wanting to eat instant noodle. So I eat them once in a while.

I used to like instant noodles, but when I finally took time to read its Nutritional Facts at the back of the package, I immediately had a change of heart about it. It has too many calories in it, one pack is equivalent to 3 cups of rice! Yikes. I'm no instant noodles fan now. I no longer eat this calorie-pack, nada nutriotional value food no matter how convenient it is.

Yes,it's a good choice for not eating this.Sometimes i tried to avoid it.But sometimes i still eat for its good taste and convience.It's ok if we just eat one or twice,I believe.hehe,take care.

I also like instant noodles and I don't really care whether it is nutritious or not. Even now when I go to dine outside, I will order this if they have this in their menu. In fact, making a really good taste instant noodles is not that easy as you really have to control the time of boiling the noodles to make it taste good.

Yes,it needs to watch the time and control the water.If too much water,the flavor may not so delicious.And the resturants provide instant noodles?I never ordered this.And in our dining hall,there is a booth for this.And i often went there enjoy my meal.hehe,have a good time,my friend.

Years ago when the ramen noodles in the cup first appeared on the grocery shelves, I just couldn't get enough of them. I worked the 'grave yard shift' and every evening I would walk down to the local store and pick up a cup to have on my break. Now however, it's rare that I indulge, I guess I just over did it back then...8o)

I like instant noodles, as they taste better. I know they are not healthy food, but I think it's alright that you don't eat it often. When I was an university student, I also had instant noodles in my dormitory and it's a fastfood for me at night:) I love China

Instant noodles taste delicious due to the addition of monosodium glutamate, a flavour enhancer. It is for this reason I dislike eating instant noodles. Certain brands have more MSG compared to others. Even though the producer of MSG used to deny it, I am one of those easily affected by it. So I try to avoid consuming instant noodles for health reasons. all the best, rosdimy

I really dont like instant noodles that much, but it is very convenient and easy to prepare thats I why when i'm hungry and I dont have time to cook I will eat noodles. It is true that it is considered as junk foods because it is made of carbohydrates and fat, with little protien or other redeeming values. Junkfoods are made from white flour, and doesnt have a lot of nutritional value.

I used to be a die hard fan during my student's days. That was the time when I was busy with books, away from mom and always hungry due to too much studying. Instant noodles was the best choice. I wasn't loaded with money during the days. I have to save money for books and assignment. Instant noodles was cheaper than other food that I ignored whether it's nutritious or not. Now I still love them. It's just the way I cook them has changed. I don't use the seasoning provided inside. Instead I replace them with salt, sugar and a bit chilli and soy sauce. I also add food like egg, veggie and such inside.

Yes, I love instant noodles. My favorite flavor is beef. Chicken is also OK, but I always get beef if I can. I don't like the seafood flavor, though. I always eat instant noodles when I am sick because I find that when I'm not feeling well it's the only food that I have appetite for.

I like instant noodles, but if I eat too much of them I get really tired of them and they make me gain weight!!! But they are good when you are hungry and don't have anything else to eat, or little time to make something. They have alot of different flavors...I like the ones that come in a cup and have veggies in there too.

Hi,mamakris.I have the same feeling with you.Just eat once in a while is better,not everyday.And it is our usual choice to take cups of it when on trip by train as it's convenient and hot.:0)Take care.

maybe for the convinience,instant noodles are really the best choice,u know,it indeed taste good,espeically when u hungury,it must attract u so much and taste more delicious.But not always like that,if u lazy dont wanna cook,so just eat them three meals a day and keep almost a wk,which could make u sick and annoyed instead of happy and comfortable.
