      Oops I didn’t know that being Japanese & teenager were prerequisites. Am just lazy and agree that dry ramen blocks are a fine snack.

      I did not know this was a thing in Japan, but I have done this as basically a dare back in college.

      Its doable, but … less than fun, can cut your mouth.

      … either that or I was too wasted to chew properly, lol.

    This is true. I’ve been eating noodles like this for years. My esophagus has long since disintegrated and I have smelled nothing other than the rich umami soaked glory of “chicken” for 15 years, but I am feared by all who gaze upon me.
