On a recent long overland, I carried water, red pepper flakes, Top Ramen Noodles and a small propane gas stove which I purchased at ProBass for $19.99.
These very versatile and sustaining noodles have a 900 year shelf life and are packaged in convenient individual servings which retail for 16-24 cents a packet. They are quick and easy to fix. I like the "chicken in name only" flavor and find they go well with whatever you might care to add. The "secret" to fixing good noodles on the roll is to use only half of the seasoning (which contains a lot of salt) in the little metal packet and adding the red pepper flakes.
If your nose is running, you know it's got to be good. But of course, if you're really hungry and cold, anything hot...even the north end of a south bound goat would taste good.
Since returning home, I still enjoy these little packs of noodle, except now with real chicken, slices of meat and chopped green onions added. I also enjoy them with hot Oriental Bang-Bang or Peanut Sauce....Yum, yum.
I honestly believe if you carried a supply of Top Ramen Noodles, red pepper flakes, hot chocolate mix, water and a small stove, you could survive almost anywhere or at least until you reached a five star restaurant with a good wine list.
I've tried several other readily available Brands and find them all to be equally good.
Bon Appétit
