At least we’re not sucking noodles through single-use plastic straws.

Cup noodles were invented by the Japanese and they like them very much. Non-instant noodles are nice and all, but they are a different thing. There’s even a well known graphic novel glorifying Momofuku Andou and his invention as if it was Nobel worthy!

With a little work, that could have been a haiku.

It’s not instant noodles but watch it anyway. OK, it’s subtitled but its a helluva funny movie. A Ramen Western.

I don’t think it’s fair to count fat. I mean, you can buy those cheap and add them t things, but you can’t really consume 2000 calories of vegetable oil a day (whereas I know someone who lived on white rice for an extended period in university). I guess the real takeaway is to add a little lard to your rice?

A rice cooker is derided a unitasker, but it is the best investment I made when I was single. A 10lb bag of rice is a lot cheaper, but a generic 2lb grocery store bag of white rice is way better than this crap.

Before the thermostat crapped out, I’ve relied on my rice cooker for so many things…steamed veggies, hard-boiled eggs, fish, etc.
I’m working my way toward getting another, because I’ve been eating more take-out lately due this setback, and suddenly I’m getting fatter.

Yeah a rice cooker is just so great, considering that Asian countries love their rice cookers says something. I personally hate making rice, i know its easy but i just can never get the end result to be consistent.
What brand were you using? I’ve had 3 Aromas, and until this last one fried its thermostat, my rice was always consistent, and much better than I could it myself.
Hmmmm… checking right now…
I do have an Aroma, the particular model is ARC-914SBD. I don’t use it a ton but it does make rice perfectly, i switch between white rice and black rice and it does both pretty well. If i had to complain about my particular model is that i dislike the plastic cup by the hinge that catches the condensation, i had issues getting it back in after popping it out and i ended up cracking the plastic a little bit.
If people have another brand they recommend feel free to do so for Knoxblox

I hate the little cuppy thing, too, but deal with it anyway. I have a better model (the oblong one that fits more food and has the delay timer) at my mom’s house that I didn’t bring with me. I’m planning on having her ship it soon, because I think it’s not being used.
I would send you my condensation catcher, but it’s already been hauled off by the garbageman.
