Funny thing is, I do have an opinion and thank you for giving me forum to declare it; I prefer Top Ramen because it uses much less packaging and no styrofoam.

top ramen beats cup o noodles.

but cup o noodles also beats maruchan. maruchan is for peasants!

Psh. Top Ramen will kick Cup o Noodles’ squeaky foam ass! It is far superior, both as it is and with your own creative additions. Cup o Noodles just has weird little zombie veggies that never really rehydrate. Bleh!

i didn’t want to admit it to your FACES but there IS a right and wrong answer here. Thankfully you are all correct. Top Ramen IS better.

those weak ass astronaut-veggies are definately part of my reasoning.

How do you dress up your Top Ramen, Swami? I like to use a little mirin and a little green curry paste. Mmmmmm.

There are many ways to dress a top ramen. Back in high school my favorite was to chop up some sliced turkey… add some green onions and an egg…. “baby you got a stew goin’!”

I’ve also done the bok choi and lop chong (sp?) method and that is always awesome… a dab of plum sauce… a hard boiled egg…. “baby i got a stew goin!”

I have to admit, I’m a cup’o girl… I like the recon veggies.

And it’s all about the instant wontons, AKSHULLY. I like that wierd sand they make.

Cup all the way! I love the little veggies and “meat” chunks. It seems the only argument for the top ramen is that you can add things while you cook it. If you really want to you can dump the dehydro cup into a pan, add some water, boil, and add whatever else you want…..never tried it but i will and get back to you.

For real, let me know how that goes for you. I always wondered if that would improve the cup flavor any…

I have always been a fan of adding sliced lunchmeat bits, green onions, and an egg.
