I have never smoked, drank alcohol, played the lottery and didn't even eat out much. I was poor because my job didnt pay much. Like I said now I'm way better off but for many many people it's not a choice or a fault to be poor, it just happens and is a part of life for people who don't have the privilege or help otherwise.

My teenager taught me how to up my ramen game. Now i add veggies or boiled eggs and sometimes leftover chicken but my favorite is adding a small spoonful of peanut butter which gives it a wonderful flavor. Obviously i don't add all those things at once it just depends on what's leftover in the fridge 🙂 I just wish the sodium wasn't so high in the flavor packet. Using half the sodium packet is less salty but also less flavor. I'd like the best of both worlds, all the flavor and half the salt.

Ando really does deserve that glorified anime origin story. Thank you sir for creating something that feeds billions of people everyday.

There were some hard times I had to go through and at our local family dollar, a 5 pack of ramen was exactly $1 and could last me the day at least. Scraped up $5 here and there, would stock up on those packets and I'd also get something like spam to accompany it. Fast forward now to where times are better for me and I'll still buy packs of ramen because I don't forget where I came from. Say what you want about ramen, but it can warm you in more than 1 way.

Peralta: And by the way, as someone who's eaten a lot of ramen in his life, here's a tip: leave a few noodles uncooked and then sprinkle them on top afterwards like a garnish. Gives you an extra little fun bonus crunch.

A little story about the Cup Noodle the video didn't mention: in 1972, the Asama-Sansō incident (a hostage crisis/police stakeout) happened in the mountains and it was widely broadcast around Japan with very high viewership. Because all the food froze quickly when they are taken up to the mountains, the cops relied on Cup Noodles which can be eaten with boiling water from kettles, which popularised the product.

Thanks for introducing the story to English speaking world. What wasn’t mentioned in the video: Mr. Ando 安藤さん was originally from Taiwan named Baifu Wu 吳百福, born during Japanese colonization. He moved to Japan in his early 20s. After World War II, he changed his last name to Ando and then regained Japanese nationality. Ando was his third wife’s last name. It was not widely known but controversial whether Mr. Ando was really the inventor of instant noodles. Two other Taiwanese origins, acquaintances of Mr. Ando’s, claimed they were the inventors. Every one of them obtained patents about the same time. Apparently Mr. Ando was the smart one who successfully marketing it.

Such an inspiring story. Didn't know the back story of instant ramen was as such. He truly changed the world.

You can certainly boujee this up! With a friend of mine who had almost nothing and had just moved into her place, using what she had around I whipped us up some ramen, spiced up the broth some more, added chicken, boiled some eggs and cut them in half, and added in some sliced scallops. Man. That meal was delicious and it brought tears to her eyes because suddenly she didn’t feel so alone and poor. Great memory! (:

I had no idea they were invented in 1958. It was in 1960 while we were living in Japan that we started eating that ramen. We had the two part Japanese ceramic soup bowls (bowl and lid). We'd break up the ramen a bit to fit in the bowl, then pour hot water and cover for 3 minutes. Still a favorite brand I get at the Tokyo Central Market in SoCal

Easy little snack/meal for the boys that didn't require any cooking, just dump the water in and 3 mins in the microwave. Even after all these years, I still quite love instant noodles and enjoy them for either lunch at work or something quick to have at home

Shrimp flavor Nissin noodles in the pink package really takes me back. My grandma used to buy the 24 pack for her grandkids and after school each day I would fix myself a small pot of noodles. Reminds me of her.

This video made me appreciate the cup noodles I am eating right now. Thank you!

My favourite ramen ever. It is amazing to see how this was developed. Eye opening, appreciative, learning many lessons. Well done.

Ramen cups were a big part of my childhood. Now I prefer the stove packets, but either form is cheap and a decent meal in a pinch. All my thanks to their creator.

this was so beautiful and inspiring thank you and thank you Mr.Ando

I ate it everyday during my childhood. I got so sick of it though lol. I would put sour cream and hot sauce to change up the flavor. I still enjoy them randomly from time to time, but I'm so happy I don't have to eat them everyday anymore.

What make Instant Noodle/Ramen perfect : "MSG" :) We cannot live without it IMO

The pork flavor is the best one

I'm a starving grad student and get by with 2 shin ramyun cups + fried eggs, all thanks to this dude

I love Instant ramen I had $3 bought a 12 pack of beef flavor it got old, but filled my belly to sleep. Still eat it today.

Truly motivation especially now when one needs to do what it takes to live to their fullest. Also finding their own way to make a difference in their communities and countries..

I was a poor college student after the military, ramen save me countless times lol

Top ramen and a few cracked eggs in boiling water made a cheap, but delicious meal when i was on a tight budget. This video is making me crave it again after not having it for years

That was a really nice video! Thanks for sharing. :)

They used to be $0.10 per package, now they’re over a quarter per package 😩

In my country we have it like 26 cents for the cheapest ones and over 1euro for something "better" that actually tastes worse :D

People from the struggle knew that them noodles always had our back. And surprisingly, those dollar cup noodles be hittin different.

I had Nissin instant ramen yesterday with two slices of cheese and some small cubes of parmesan added with the hot water. it was majestic.

A surprisingly, wholesome and feel good story. Reminds me of the history behind Sriracha.

I respect this man

He was scared that western food would dominate japan... Now japenese food and culture dominates the world.

Wow good stuff I always wondered how it all started great products!!

Ok so Samurai Noodles is possibly the COOLEST thing on KZread. Thank you for sharing this incredible story!!

The only problem I have with cup noodles is that it still requires hot water. There are methods to create heat packaging and I think they should develop that for cup noodles

My college self would like to thank you. I don’t know where I’d be without Roman noodles

I love my cup Ramyon. A quick and easy-to-prepare meal that fills you up. 😊

I’m going to watch samurai noodles now. Thanks for the recommendation 👍🏾

Why can't we get some of the new flavors they have in Japan?

My God... as long as i remember, i already eat instant noodles as toddler, just about once or twice a week... Then after i start went to primary school, my breakfast are usually instant noodles with some rice, sometimes with egg, and i eat noodles practically 5 packs a week... In my teenage days, i eat more noodles, 2 packs at once, sometimes with rice or/and eggs... sometimes i eat noodles twice a day... it already about 10-15 packs per week.. In my college days, literally no day without at least 1 pack of noodles... sometimes just for snack and eat the noodles dry, without cooking it... i easily eat about 15-20 packs a week... in my 20s, this is the peak of my noodles consumption, since now i usually eat 3 packs in one serving, and my personal record is 5 packs, plus 2 eggs... i even try to mix the flavor, i eat 3 packs of noodles with 3 different flavors, and somehow still delicious... i eat about 20-25 packs a week... and now in my 30s, my consumption decline, because i already married in this time, and have a wife too cook me more healthy food... but still i consumed about 5 to 10 packs per week... Now i'm 37 y.o, and estimated has eat at least 20.000 packs of instant noodles... 1.5 packs per day on average... still healthy, and thanks God now there is much more interesting new brands and flavors than ever... 😁

Undoubtedly one of the BEST food I eat while watching something

The first time I ate ramen was probably when I was about 4-5. I remembered it clearly because my parents had to work and they dropped me off at my great-grandma's. It was lunch and I was hungry, but my great-grandma didn't have anything to cook. So she boiled some water and teached me how to cook an instant noodle. It was the first time I ever tried something like that, and I love it.... now it's a staple food for me as a broke college student xD
