It'd be funnier if the package was just half empty

Let me introduce you to the rapid ramen cooker, a microwaveable tray that claims to make ramen with only half the regular amount of sodium.

You know how the cooker enables this?

You add half the flavor packet.

Can't make this shit up.

I’ve always done this then, use the leftover flavor pack (salt) for seasoning a more homemade meal.

I have so many leftover packets because I always make mine with better than bullion, hoisin sauce, and chili flakes.

Better than bullion ftw.

[–] [email protected] 2 points 2 months ago

Soooo good!

I moved to Germany and the only products I’ve requested from visitors are better than bouillon and molasses.

That’s why I’ve requested it 😂 It’s not cheap in the US, but it’s well under $10 (though it’s been a few years of inflation…)

😂 absolute gold

Nothing better than selling a single-purpose bit of plastic intended to go into the microwave and boil water that is functionally a replacement for a bowl that you presumably already have that expressly states that you can only use it for up to 5 years.

[–] [email protected] 3 points 2 months ago

Yeah it's an absolute travesty. At least it seems people have gone the opposite way and it looks like folks use it as a bowl, so there's that.

It'd be illegal as as those statements are regulated to a standard serving. Except for net product amount.
