Ramen noodles are generally deep fried before drying into that little square patty... so, overall, even the noodles themselves are not so great. High in sodium and MSG (even worse for you) and hydrolyzed vegetable protein (an MSG analogue).

FWIW, i really like Shin Ramen, a Korean brand. The noodles are really thick, and the portion in pretty substantial, more than the usual. The 'soup' is super spicy and will make you sweat. In Korea, this brand is often used, even at restaurants, who add a bunch of other stuff to it for a tasty hot snack.

IMHO you'd be better off with a simple diet of rice and kimchi.

The food industry is trying to kill the poor folks with all that cr@p they put in our most inexpensive foods. And the Glutamate Association lobby group keeps it that way.
