Tbf, not everyone has a car. I mean, cooking ramen at home and saving up for a car would be a better use of your money, but then people like whoever replies to this that are ideologically opposed to cars would rather have someone else with a car deliver it so they can disconnect themselves from that reality.
Fwiw I also always pick up, I was a delivery driver for 10yr, I can take one more run (to myself).
“Ramen” while being a specific food is also colloquially used to refer to “inexpensive food” as a package of ramen is about 10 cents. The above comment was not an advertisement for “Maruchan® Brand Instant Ramen Noodles available in many delicious flavours.”
I’ll check when I get to the store today, but “decades” is definitely wrong, unless you mean the 8packs (I was talking about singles). Or you’re getting the yakisobas or cup noods that cost more than the packs, or sapporo ichiban which I have to go to a special store for as it is an import and that is about $1.50 a pack (but that chow mein is worth it, that shit is so good.) Bananas are cool too.
Wait, did I put a gun to your head and force you to eat ramen and I missed it? Tf are we doing here lmao this is the dumbest “debate” I’ve ever had. I’ll say again “the ramen was a metaphor my dude, it ain’t that deep.”
The really good noodles are far more than 10 cents a pack of course, but if you can afford it the dollar-a-pack ones are much better. It’s still a dollar for a meal pretty much, so not bad.
I recommend the Mi Goreng noodles by Indomie if you want really good ones. They make halal ramen in Indonesia that beats everybody else or at least ties evenly with Sapporo Ichiban and Nongshim. You can get a 30-pack for $20 to $30 online
That’s great. My time is worth less than theses crazy prices and I work better if I get something to eat and this is faster than getting the very limited and terrible food at work. Do I feel like the prices are insane? Yep. But it’s a value call and since there isn’t another option that allows for good quality food quickly, they get my money.
This didn’t used to exist and that sucked, so maybe we are just undervaluing how great this is. Would be greater not paying $60 for lunch though, so yeah, I’m gonna keep paying and grumbling about it at the same time. I really hope drone services take off soon and have better pricing.
Using drones would be cheaper, but the delivery companies won’t be passing those savings on to you. They’ve already shown that people are willing to pay the prices they charge now. They’ll just absorb the savings for themselves.
Yes there is an alternative, you don’t use delivery services. It is just a big dumb waste of money.
I pick up all my own food, have never used any of the 3rd party food delivery ripoffs

I’ve been grocery shopping on a bicycle.
My round trip was 24 miles.
Holy fuck I’m glad I have a car now.
If you’re buying ramen you’re wasting your money. Cook food at home with actual food.
I don’t have a car and I cook just fine at home.
Edit. If your only options for food is ordering or ramen… Idk what to tell you. You’re in for a rough life ahead of you.

And bananas are $10.
Ramen hasn’t been 10 cents in decades.
Maruchan Ramen Chicken, Pack of 24, for $7.36 on Amazon. That’s literally $0.30/pack (or $0.10/oz). https://a.co/d/gr4Ft9F
Just throwing out there that ramen is indeed dirt cheap still.
You’re stuck on details that don’t matter. Ramen is not worth buying no matter how cheap it is.
But whatever. I give up. Be annoying.
I see you don’t know what “self-awareness” means.
If you lost your secondary argument that you brought up for no reason, maybe just stop replying instead of being an obnoxious shit?
Have you had your meds today? Feeling better?

The Mi Goreng is good for sure. I like the Saporro Ichiban Chow Mein too!
It doesn’t matter. You guys are all being idiots and arguing about dumb shit.
If you don’t know how to cook food for yourself I highly recommend learning today. Eggs for example are cheaper and cook in less time than ramen.
Ahem
No u.
They’re around 30 cents. Specific amounts don’t really matter.

How much do you weight sir
What does how much they weigh have to do with literally anything
I’ve never met a skinny person using these delivery craps.
Nobody ever died if they had to wait a bit until their next meal
Chances are if you aren’t in college anymore most people you meet are overweight.
😂 The drones carry the food to the people, not the other way around.
And you think restaurant staff is not exploited?
Good for you?
