Maruchan noodles are good

Even non-shite ramen noodles are cheap. They sell broth like chicken stock, in those square containers with the plastic top, as well.

Yea the bowl noodles are good. Never had the first one. Only thing I don't like about the bowls is that they take up too much room

Here's a cheap and tasty way to use ramen noodles:

Oriental Beef and Ramen Toss

1 lb ground beef
2 pkgs oriental flavor ramen noodles
2 cups water
2 cups frozen oriental vegetable mixture
1/8 tsp ground ginger
2 Tbs thinly sliced green onions

Brown beef and drain. Season with one of the seasoning packs. Set aside.

Put other ingredients, except green onions, into the skillet. Cook until vegetables are done.

Return beef to skillet, add green onion and serve.
