Greetings, esteemed guests of the tome of truth blogsite. Today's main course shall be served shortly in a slightly less disturbing manner than I would usually present it (and any other things that are sure to scare anyone) so as to reserve the fun of seeing people lose their appetites upon consuming the food that almost seems to have come from the kitchen of the netherworld.
That is right, your gracious host and author of this horror of a tome, has found an excellent (at least for me) way to spend his holidays... Experimenting on food...heheheh. My apologies, I just have a habit of laughing for nothing... (foolish people, soon, I shall conquer both the world of literature and the world of culinary delights, which shall be renamed the world of culinary abominations).
Anyway, it is finally alive... today's victim, er... subject... Instant noodles.
Sure, people may say it is not very nutritious and it does have it's weaknesses, but let us take a closer look at the subject, as we dissect it in an evil manner.
Let us note the strengths of instant noodles, and why they have survived the market. They are convenient, and you do not have to take the trouble of cooking a long meal or going out to get food. They also come in a variety of flavours to choose from, for example, seafood, chicken and even laksa, a Singaporean favourite.
They take little time to prepare and often only require water to prepare it just to get the basic noodles.
They are also easily available at plenty of convenient shopping areas such as supermarkets and provision stores, and at a reasonable price too, sometimes sold in bulk and packages.
Now, it is time to address the concerns of our dear consumers. First up, sure, it is true that some brands contain MSG (Monsodium glutamate) which is not very beneficial for the body, especially if you like to live a healthy, happy life. However, times have changed, and there are many well known brands that do not sell noodles with it. In fact, they guarantee it and you can even complain about it if it does like most people I know do, who shall remain unnamed for the sake of preserving this blogsite from certain people who may sue me just as others may have been. This is what forums and livejournals are for, in my own opinion of course.
Next, it is often thought that instant noodles are not nutritious. Not true. You can always add chopped vegetables, meat and even eggs to them. All in all, folks, instant noodles can be a wholesome meal. But I would advise you to eat fresh food more often and avoid instant food unelss you really have to.
This the self proclaimed expert author and now deranged researcher on food, signing off.
