minus-squarenorimee@lemmy.worldlinkfedilinkarrow-up12·4 months agoYou are absolutely right. They are a great crunchy snack. But they are not raw. The noodles are pre-fried. That’s why they are ready so quickly and also what makes them quite unhealthy.

minus-squarenilloclinkfedilinkEnglisharrow-up4·4 months agoHow much are in the noodles vs the packet though? I have always used half or less of the flavor packet because it’s so salty tasting (and also I assumed it would reduce the sodium content too.
minus-squarenorimee@lemmy.worldlinkfedilinkarrow-up2·4 months agoYeah. High fat content in the noodles, high sodium in the spice packets. Fat and sodium are 10-20% higher than when you buy the plain noodles.
