Instant noodle!! The last packet I have at home - Maggi Mee!
While Maggi is actually the brand name of the instant noodle, it is the most commonly used word to describe instant noodle in Malaysia. This is because once upon a time, the only instant noodle available was Maggi. Now there are tons of different brands out there, and Maggi is actually one of the least tasty one. Haha, but I still like the Curry flavor from Maggi as most of the Thai made instant noodles that are spicy has a sour tinge to it. The best instant noodles are the Korean made ones like Shin Ramyun. That one has a larger serving size and will definitely fill me up real fast. The worst instant noodle is the Maruchan Ramen that is very popular here in the US.While instant noodles is on the 'top 10 most unhealthy' list of foods (one is basically drinking a bowl of diluted monosodium glutamate/MSG and preservatives/coloring), it can be made pretty tolerable if you add some healthy ingredients to it. I always add some combination of fishballs, baby shrimp, egg, dumpling, carrots, and of course, the most important - some green vege!!
By the way, daddy, the chopsticks I bought from Bali cannot withstand heat at all. Those that I have used to cook noodles are now 'krekot'. So they can only be used when eating sushi or cold dishes only. This one is the one I bought from Wang Fu Jing when I went to Beijing.
