I thought this is all there is,
but now I know you are so much more.
I want to upgrade from my simple eight bits,
but will you still love me when I'm sixty-four?

Unless it falls to Chex Muddy Buddies. I can understand that.
I need more ideas to help raise my normal everyday ramen into something delicious and filling! Any suggestions?

BTW: since I was a kid; I have indulged in ramen in the following manner:

1. Boil noodles as usual.
2. drain water
3. add 1 or 2 tbsp of SOUR CREAM
4. add seasoning and mix in.
5. profit

Most people tell me this sounds disgusting, but I swear, it's really quite good.

Guilty pleasure good.

Sounds kind of like a beef stroganoff. 
I'd add more stuff, but I can see it being good!

I think chopped green onion would make it awesomer. Special note: do NOT overcook the noodles, otherwise it's gross.

Richter

Agreed.  Some kind of finely cut / ground meat too.  If you had a leftover pork / beef / lamb roast, I don't think you'd go wrong tossing some of that into the stuff.

I think the idea of COOKING ramen is sort of a mistake.  I've gotten best results putting it in a bowl and pouring 1-2 cups REALLY boiling water over it. 
Mix until done, drain the water off if you don't want soup.

i've done the sour cream thing with rice instead of noodles (cause rice >>>>> noodles in both nutrition AND cheapness)

I am almost ashamed to admit that one of my horrifying "comfort foods" is a can of cream of mushroom soup and a cup of sour cream, over chicken or pork, over rice, baked.

If you're looking for the most calories for your monetary unit, it'll get you there.

I prefer to use crushed ramen as croutons. They taste better "raw." Beyond that, it's also nice to add green onions or use peanut sauce instead of the broth.

It's not true that ramen shall never die... I mean sure it has a half-life somewhere near radium, but at some point even the highly experimental and classified chemicals that they use in secret ramen labs will break down into inert materials.

The real question is what sort of toxic dump facilities need to be built to handle the Ramen Waste until it breaks down?

HAH.

Actually, at this moment I am so distracted by not having the one that I want that I, sadly, can only say I want that one, singular man. :(

I've been spayed by love.

Naw don't, that was just me having an emo moment. I kicked myself out of it.
