HA HA!  Tell me you own this!!!  Is that a dessert in the top middle?????  Looks similar to the one that has crushed pretzels on the bottom with strawberries and jello?  Awesome if it is lol.

I saw David Chang on TV eating a brick of dried ramen noodles like a candy bar.

That's really popular with kids where I live. They open the package, dump the flavor packet in, give it a shake and it's snack time. They even sell it targeted as a snack food with the flavor powder already loose in the package so they can just give it a couple whacks on a hard surface (if they want it in pieces), shake it up a bit, open the package and start munching.

It's kinda like wrestling a gorilla... you don't stop when you're tired, you stop when the gorilla is tired.

In my college days, I'd sometimes eat them straight from the brick. No need for the seasoning packet. It was quicker and easier than cooking them, especially when it had been a long day, or if I was on the go between classes.

I don't think we have mentioned that ever popular vintage slaw known as "Sumi salad" that incorporated broken up ramen noodles and cabbage with a "Asian" dressing. Example http://www.food.com/recipe/sumi-salad-23695  I have even seen it in the serve yourself take-out selection at Whole Foods.

And when you've used the noodles off-label here's what to do with the seasoning package according to David Chang
