We do. We are noodle connoisseurs. We appreciate a wide variety of noodles, and are not unjustly biased against ramen because they are Japanese or popular. We have a great appreciation for the dish, since Chinese noodle soups and ramen have a great balance for a lunchtime meal, and their alkaline content gives them a splendid texture that is even preserved in soups, unlike many other varieties of noodle.

because instant ramen is cheap and easy to find.

where can i get a package of spaghetti that costs 15 cents and comes with a sauce packet?
sure there's those generic mac and cheeses, but ramen's better, and this one's vegan.

instant ramen - 25 cents or so
pack of egg noodles about the size of 3 instant ramen bricks - 3 usd.

take a wild guess.

go to any asian market. you can get plenty of different noodles, in bulk, on the cheap. we're not talking 15 cent ramen cheap, but close enough.

i loev ramens, but these are my favorite

>>1524647

I like udon.

>3 usd

Really? A 500gramme pack of spaghetti costs 30 eurocent at ALDI, that would be approximately 45 american cent. You can't tell me Wallmart or your ALDI sell their spaghetti for 3usd. Is food that fucking expensive over there?

>>1524744

Yes, if you want good quality food it's more expensive than Europe. This is why body weight is so closely tied to socioeconomic status in the US.

>>1524744

US government has direct control over the grain market, and prices are slightly higher. Its about $0.88 us cents for a 16 ounce package of spaghetti (Almost 500g)

>>1524748

Well, I wouldn't exactly call the spaghetti you can buy at ALDI quality food but they are eadible for all intents and purposes. I mean they are Spaghetti for crying out loud, it's not like they're anying fancy. What do you guys pay for a large sack of potatoes, 10 dollars?

>>1524759
Here in Minnesota, it's about 1.60 for generic 16 oz pasta. Keep in mind that pasta is one of the cheapest items in existence.

>>1524759
is right. US gov has direct control over the grain market. That's why we have HFCS in everything, corn is our cheap product, not other grains.

A 450g bag of cheap noodles costs $2.50 USD at HEB (a grocery), and that's the shit with bleached flour in it.

>>1524759

Well okay, that's more believable than 3 usd and the excuse for buying ramen just flew out the window.

>>1524761
Potatoes are 80 cents per pound, typically. Squash is usually 1 dollar per pound. Fresh vegetables are, ridiculous, like 5 dollars a pound for bell peppers.

>>1524763
wow

noodles are cheap as fuck online.

>>1524765
Where in the US do you live that potatoes are only 80 cents a pound? Damn.
I get WIC and potatoes are 2.87/lb here at friggin walmart.

>>1524765
>Potatoes are 80 cents per pound
>like 5 dollars a pound for bell peppers

That's about the same as in Europe

How much does a pack of cigarettes cost in the US?

>>1524786

varies way too much depending on where you are. For example, near 10 bucks in Chicago, 3 or 4 bucks in the boonies

>>1524786
Depends where you are. Here in Texas my cigs cost 5$ a pack, when I went to New Jersey, they were 11$.

>>1524772
can you be more specific? what's the smallest amount of money i can spend to get noodles online, which site?
I don't doubt that if i bought a pallet the per unit cost would be low, but i usually buy 1 or 5 ramen at a time.

>>1524790
It's around $10 in New York too. :/

and I thought 4 euros per pack were bad. 11 dollars is fucking outrageous.

>>1524790

What are the boonies?

>>1524807

middle of fucking nowhere

>>1524799
lol, I think he meant real noodles and not ramen

>>1524807
Basically it's a joking/derogatory term for non-metropolitan areas.

>>1524819
>>1524814

The prices vary within a state or from state to state?

>>1524807

It's a term that came to America via American GIs in the Philippines.

The Tagalog word for mountains is "bundok". In the Philippines if you are mountain people it's like saying hillbillies.

>>1524826
Both are possible, though for cigarettes I'd say it's more about state (some states have high taxes on cigs.)

>>1524826
The price varies from store to store.

50 pounds of brown rice for 45 dollars. Of course shipping 50 lbs isn't cheap. it is significantly better for you.

>>1524843
I highly doubt that bag is fair trade.

>>1524845

>>1524799
thanks and welcome
, but thats around a buck each. the brand i like is 25 cents at a local store, around 15 cents for the supergeneric ones, or i could get the 50 cent ones at the asian markets.
non-ramen noodles can be $3 for one with a fancy label or $150 for a plain label. aldi might still have 50 cent box of macaroni.

cigarettes are $2 for the tobacco, optional $2 for fncy package, then $2-8 in extortian to the local protection racket. i don't smoke, but i'd like to grow some tobacco, where do i get seeds?

>>1524744

read what I type. EGG NOODLES. the fancy semi-asian stuff. some shady spaghetti costs next to nothing and also tastes like soggy newspaper.

>>1524872
Wow 15 cent.

The cheapest on amazon is 30 cents or so.

>>1524877

okay, I didn't notice that. still though, 500 gramme of egg noodles cost 80 eurocents.

When I first started lurking /ck/ I wanted to know what the big fuss was about. So I bought some Ramen and some Udon. Threw it in some sort of peanut based dish if I recall.
Anyways it took me about a week before I realised they were talking about Pot Noodle. :<
