I like those dumb Mac and Cheese insta-cups they sell. Cheap, easy and lame! Also you can throw in a slice of processed cheese to make it, well, cheesier.

Ramen is OK but there's too much salt.

People of earth, I come with great newfound culinary advice! The next time you make ramen, add an egg to it. I don't know how you all prepare it normally (I used to get the chili flavor, make the noodles, strain them, and add just a little bit of seasoning for a dry spicy noodle dish, and it wouldn't work well for that) but I just made one of the instant lunch soup bowls, and added an egg just before adding the boiling water. I also broke the yolk so it'd mix in better. When the noodles were ready, I stirred the egg in. It adds a lot more oomph to it, highly recommended!

Yeah, that is really good. Tastes like egg drop soup.

It's good to mix two or three eggs in a bowl and put the flavor packet in with them while you're boiling the noodles, then cooking all of it together in a giant pan and making an omelet. Putting in sliced lunch meat makes it pretty good too.

Ramen, fo sho.

There are enough Asian grocers in my area (Japanese, Vietnamese, Korean, you name it) that the selection is HUGE! Plus, they sell all the goodies that might not come in the packet. Fried eggs, fish cakes, freeze-dried shrimp (delicious, like shrimp jerky).

In general, I like Mac and Cheese better than ramen. I still like ramen though, it's pretty hard to beat for around 20 cents. But I'd definitely prefer mac and cheese, especially if it's homemade. OM NOM NOM
