I looked it up and I found results for this, so I'm not exactly too sure.

This right here was my life for a little while a few months back. I really wish these didn't fuck your digestive system up though.

Lived off this shit in my 20's after the army

Usual shopping list

1 x Chuck Steak ($8)
2 Dozen Eggs
Box of Ramen
Pack of mexican cheese
Several loafs of bread


The ramen was always special and unique because there is a thousand things you can do with it. You know you could get 30 bricks for a $1 back then.

My favorite is throw the flavor packet away.

Crack an egg in it. Use cheese, pepper maybe a bit of salt, and taco bell sauce. Amazing and filling meal. Pair it with some buttered bread and its amazing in my opinion

Most of the time i would subsitce of Ramen, eggs or a combination thereof and once a week i would break out the Chuck steak...Usually Saturday because Sunday's were my fast food day. Breakfasts were always eggs or granola bars

Life was incredibly meagre in my 20's as i recall it but I ate on less than $35 a week because i couldn't go out and drink beer if i didn't ration everything else. I didn't make enough money to do both.. Things like Butter and salt shakers i outright stole from Wendy's and shit.

I would bet this same haul of food cost's $75 now including the fast food sunday meal


Edit: Also boiling your ramen in Red bull is something else.

its good if its all you can do

try shopping for 7 days on like $40. Challenge yourself and make a thread. Do it without feeling hungry all the time

Ramen was really the only bulk thing that was filling. a 10lb bag of rice was like 1/3 of the budget

suppose i could of done chicken instead of steak but i loved beef at the time. Now i love chicken

lolwat? Elaborate, please. I don't think I'd want to eat noodles that taste like Red Bull.

Leaves a gnarly taste i think. The sweetness that gets put into the noodles is other worldy. Paired with salt its a slam dunk

Decent tom yam kung taste for those who like a instant, sour spicy dish. The noodle cake is a nice snack on its own.

Best results if you swap out the paste pack for something like Mae pranom and add fresh chillies. A slice of cheese is great on top is great too.

Samyang noodles in 5 packs have dropped in price considerably at my local asian grocer, they used to be $10 a pack now they're 5.50. They all taste great so I pretty much only buy samyang now. I primarily buy the tomato, buldak, and carbonara.
 
Nissin Hot and Spicy Fire Wok Molten Chili Chicken

Actually really very spicy. I mean, I didn't expect it to be mild but it's actually Asia-grade spicy.
Honestly a bit more heat than I was looking for at work. This is more "smoking and drinking" levels.
