From what I've read over time, it isn't the sodium that's so evil but the preservative.    Not a problem for the random diner but actually harmful to those who eat this as a regular part of their diet.    Google it.

hmmmm...I wonder it it's also the method they use to dry the noodles

 

I think Maruchan (and probably all the others) dry it by deep frying in fat (faster than air drying method) so that's where the fat content comes from???  (based on some youtube video I saw) 

 

But I think they all taste great and the world is better with them 

 

I hear about guys making $1 a day or less. I think this 25 cent pack of noodles helps them get through the day at least
