    Default old food

    I am making a batch of ramen from 2002. It says so on the label. It is 'roast chicken flavor'. I didn't start eating ramen until long after 2002 I think. (maybe 2004). will I die?

    Possibly. My boyfriend had some ramen (of the beef variety, I believe) that was a year and a half old, and he had a stomach ache for the rest of the night.

    Good luck to you though, Rubah!

    Too bad it wasn't an expired canned good. You could have gotten lucky with Botulism.

    Raman is always safe and Botulism is my favorite spice.

    Godspeed Rubah!

    no, it's not very tasty though. It doesn't seem like the flavoring wants to stick to the noodles

    How about now?

    Will the flavoring act like a cholesterol's filler to the meat sugars in the boolean that rip your veins up and cause cholesterol to pool in for a patch job but thanks to the defective flavoring causes an over abundance of cholesterol to form cutting off the blood to the brain and you get that different stroke and wake up thinking you are Gary Coleman?

    No, you should be fine. The only real problem you'll encounter from the noodles is the spicy taste soaking into the noodles more easily than you might have expected. Dried stuff that comes in bags, with preservers, and spices tend not to have a serious expiration date. Or at least, that's been my experience with ramen noodles.

    still not dead >:[ remind me never to recommend suicide by ramen to anyone.

    by spicy taste soaking in, does that ostensibly make it more or less spicy? because the broth is pretty dark looking

    Are you dead yet?

    I am not sure exactly. I thought they just applied MSG like mad to the thing. So when aliens come down in 8 million years to play alien autopsy with your violated corpse (sorry, you live in the south - I read it happens a lot there) they will find a perfectly preserved rubah and be able to resurrect her as a Kerrigan like thing who will then run the Zerg and take over the universe unless the remaining humans team up with these scaly people with no mouths.

    the future is weird.

    Well, it gets into the noodles, then it gets out real quick. This usually affects the broth in a fashion more than the noodles themselves; it makes it slightly spicier (the broth). Unless you eat the noodles damn fast, then your mouth will burn itself off and you'll more or less be breathing fire all day (and something involving other orifices as well).

    A) Kerrigan never died
    B) the Zerg evolve through assimilation, not necromancy
    C) rubah isn't a Psionically-gifted individual who was trained by the Confederacy
    D) the Protoss and Terrans are not on good terms. Only Raynor's Raiders are, and he is gone (possibly wherever Zeratul is)
    E) there was a C. Live with it. Can I GOE now?
