buy some korean five-packet ramen

the noodles are higher quality and taste better, but the seasoning packets on those are way strong. they are often kimchi flavored, but the aftertaste and breath you get is a lot stronger than what you would get from actual kimchi.

If you're ever going to h-mart

Since miso soup and ramen broth are really different, I would highly recommend you look for these kits if you have a big Asian grocery near you. The H-Mart near me carries them and they're really good: Ramen Kits from Sun Ramen.
They're a little more expensive than instant ramen but a whole lot better, the noodles are fresh and tasty, and the broths are solid.
Also they're super easy to make.

Also was that a 99 ranch you went to? Pick up some little sheep hot pot base next time

Half of my family is Chinese and I can confirm this. Though bats are good luck, so eating would be taboo, pandas are way too illegal to eat (though I'm sure their livers sell for a fuckton) and Pekinese are not eating dogs.

btw bamboo shoots are great veggies

lotus roots are cool too

asian groceries are cool as hell, chicago's got a thai area and chinatown of course and the markets in both parts smell godawful but theres neat stuff there

also get kitchen knives at asian markets all the ones i use at work are from them, theyre cheap as hell and work as well as any other.

melon bread isnt even melon flavored, i was so disappointed.
dont buy meat buns made at asian markets unless you like eating trash meat

OP is hilariously naive to be amazed at anything pictured.

The best thing to buy at asian markets is cleavers. Cleavers dont need to be 200 dollar german steel scalpels. A 5lb iron blunt rear end cleaver works just as well.

Was going to suggest this, this poo poo owns.

Is it a ton of calories in general or a ton compared to other nori snacks? I swear I read the back and was impressed at the calories being now, but I am an American afterall.

it's around two times more than other nori snacks. by weight the crispy seaweed has around the same calories as candy bars and 80% of the calories of stuff like potato chips. you usually eat way less of the nori snacks than other snack food though.
