I dont know - you dress ramen right with a little sliced leftover meat, a hardboiled egg, and a little sliced green onion and you\'ve got a meal.

Got to add the soy sauce though for perfection.

Noodles used to be excellent in place of some of the crap we used to get in rat packs :)

The blocks of noodles were the easiest though we did have one lad try and take 5 pots of pot noodle because he thought that was what we meant.

Mainly because they were light and it didn\'t matter if they got mashed on the yomp just boil the water in your mess tin and throw the=m in much better than some of the crap they used to give us :)

@WG - I saw some of the Brit troops who visited our site stocking up on Ramen - and when asked they admitted they were better than Brit field rations - course we also used to trade MRE\'s with em as well.

Dear god almighty save me from British field rations. I think they were still issuing Bully Beef from WWI.

They are not that bad on the wole but they changed them in the 90\'s and where as we used to get dead fly biscuits (Garyboldies) we now get hard tack which take your fillings out and break your teeth even when dunked in tea or coffee.

The coffee that comes with the packs is still like floor sweepings though so when ever I need to use rat packs I have a small plastic container that has decent coffee put in it.

I think the worst has to be the oatmeal they give you for breakfast, no matter how you mix it it is like trying to eat soggy sawdust. Even when mixed with a pack of chocolate powder and 2 packs of sugar it makes pot noodles taste like heaven.

I had Pot Noodles once. They had peas in them, and tasted like either dusty cardboard or melamine sawdust, I can\'t remember which.

HIGNFY, on the other hand, cracks me up every time. They remind me of Frank Muir and Dennis Norden somewhat. Did anyone else ever look forward to the next airing of Just A Minute or 20 Questions? Comedic lexiophiles at their best. :)

You did remember to add the water didn\'t you?

Aye, but I\'d swear the stuff is waterproof by design! I recall adding more water and microwaving the defiant rat-food for a further few minutes to get the junk to rehydrate. It\'s good for two things; feeding rodents and clogging drains.

Maybe OZ uses real noodles lol

I don\'t know what you guys are going on about. we buy pot noodle (i prefer the term cup noodle) and it tastes fine. boiling water does it good. i prefer to not add any sauces they give you (they taste horrible) and just add the herbs, then drain it out put it in a bowl and then put a metric f@ckton of chilli sauce on it. this serves two purposes:
1. Tastes very good.
2. Allows me to have my privacy (gotta love chilli breath)

and i found out recently that my girlfriend\'s sense of smell isn\'t so good so i\'ve got free reign to have as much as i like :beer:
