Why is it...

Why is it if you eat instant ramen then take a drink soda it taste so bad? What is in the soda or ramen that makes it taste. is it because the ramen is dried or something???

lol, I guess your right but I'm going to email the makers off the instant ramen because it's not far that I can have two of my favorite things at the same time

maybe it has something to do with that fact that ramen is more of a salty thing, whereas soda is LOADED with sugar. When you're eating the ramen the salty receptors on the tastebuds of your tongue are stimulated, that's why each mouthful tastes pretty much the same, so when you take a drink of a sweet soda your tastebuds aren't expecting it, so the receptors get a bit messed up and don't really know which taste to taste I guess. Also the fizziness could affect it too probably.

Ha, that sounds intelligent...but I just made it up right now! It sounds plausible though

Ramen has salt in it

I didn't taste it, I add loads of salt to my ramen....I didn't know that it had so much salt in it already.....I'm going to die from to much salt in take

haha, well if you're eating the pre-packaged kind then ya, there is usually loads of salt in it. There was one I saw with 1029mg of sodium, which is like..a tablespoon + a teaspoon or two of salt. I was like "OH GOD!" haha I bet it would have tasted good though lol.

yea, i went ot the doctor and he told if i added all the salt from my food, then the salt I added tp it I would have a whole nother meal of nothing but salt....I thought he was joking

peach0816 · (#9 (**permalink**))

oh my god! haha that is a buttload of salt! But I must confess that I love salt too. I'm not crazy about it though, like some people put salt on PIZZA! I think it's already salty enough for my tastes! mmmm....pizza....

I don't put salt on pizza, just on everything else....
