Best Ramen

Yes, they exist. I've decided my favourites are the Nissin Chow Mein line and the Maruchan Yakisoba line. I'm afraid of Maruchan's psuedo-Italian varieties (tomato with basil, Alfredo, creamy cheddar)but they exist if anyone out there isn't scared by them. The Nissin ones are best in the Spicy Chicken and Thai Peanut types. I need to pick up some of the noodle bowls, which I haven't although they're sold in every commissary I've ever been in.

It was Day of the Nitrates for me at the commissary. I picked up turkey bacon, turkey kielbasa, Hebrew National hot dogs and summer sausage. I also got ground turkey, ground beef and chicken breast; I'm shopping for at least one full week of dinners. I decided to go to Pancho Villa for the eggs, they're "Huevos No Infectados" after all.

Nissin is the ramen of my childhood and I have remained loyal. I've never seen thee pseudo Italian flavours, perhaps we don't have them in he smaller Canadian market. They scare me.

I grew up on a now-dead brand called Oodles of Noodles. I think they may exist as only a cup kind now, but I've yet to find a cup noodle that's palatable.

Oh, I remember Oodles of Noodles fondly.

I dunno about their yakisoba, but they used to have a chili cheese ramen that was spectacularly vile.
