Fucking Ramen

We have a ton of ramen just lying around and I wanna eat it, but I'm on a diet. I read somewhere that ramen got its caloric density from being fried and I thought that if I boiled the ramen and drained the water then the majority of the calories would go with it (assuming the calories came from the fat). Would I be correct in this assumption or do the calories come from noodles being carbs? Are carbs that fricking calorie dense?

    370 calories is not a lot, and you should drink the broth because the water will satiate and hydrate you

      lol, so I did the math for myself and found that fat makes up about 126 calories since 14g of fat and 9 cals/1g. Carbs make up 216 cals (4cals/1g) and protein 32 (4cals/1g). So carbs aren't that dense (at least not like fat), but there are a lot of carbs in noodles.

      this sum F teir bait but I'll allow it.

              moron. Hes saying its a lot for what youre getting out of the ramen, which is basically nothing.
              Also I can speak from experience, but Ramen does not fill you up in the slightest, which is similar to most pasta. You need to eat a ton of it to feel satieted (300g of spaghetti is around 550-700 calories compared to 220 calories for 300g of mash) while the OP ramen is 370 calories for less than 100g.
              Normies get fast as frick off of pasta because you have to eat so much of it to feel full.

                my savior has arrived.

                What do you think about my theory?

                that HAS to be a joke. If I pour out the VISIBLY floating grease, aren't I not consuming THOSE calories? And wasn't that grease previously ON THE NOODLES? How can I be consuming the same number of calories if grease I saw myself drain isn't on the food I'm eating anymore? How the frick does that work? Is fat a calorie poltergeist? Isn't it gone now?

                Am I crazy?

                bumping for OP cause I genuinely want to know too. I love ramen but am cutting calories where I can

            Cook the noodles and divide them between meals.

            2 meals with noodles, dressed up with chicken and veggies or eggs goes a lot longer and healthier.

    That's grade A nonsense, but you insist put it in the frying pan with only about a cup of water, tweaking as needed. What isn't absorbed is simply boiled off.

      but doesn't fat float to the surface of the water after boiling? If I drain that, shouldn't the fat go the frick away? How does fat work? Does it stay in the noodles even after it floats to the surface???

        Actually kinda curious about this. Would be pretty easy to collect the fluid in a fat separator and then weigh how much fat has actually come out of the noodles.

    >fried and I thought that if I boiled the ramen
    Its fried before hand dummy. It'll still have 370cal. Also not all ramen is fried but they honestly have the same ballpark cal count. Pasta is dense, that's why it makes normies fat if they eat it every day.

      I know it's fried before hand, jackass. that's implied. the shit is dry and hard. We can all see that. But does fat still remain in the noodles even after it gets hot and "reanimated"? Doesn't fat react to heat in some way like leaving the vessel it inhabits?

        If you eat everything that's in the packet, you're eating 370cal. No matter how you prepare it, it's going to be 370cal. Raw, its going to be 370cal.

            Am I crazy?

            The answer is that you really wouldnt know how many calories youre taking away with your process. You can make guesses for sure, and can take steps to remove as much of the grease as possible, but at the end of the day, the bulk of the calories are going to be in the pasta itself.
            One thing I have done before, is cook the ramen, then put it into a sieve, wash it, and then stick it in a pan with some veggies i'd been frying previously and add the spice packet then.
            I still counted the ramen as the full calorie count though, and took any calories I got rid of by not drinking the broth and washing it as bonus for losing weight.

              thank you for this reasonable answer. Yeah, i knew I couldn't geiger count the caloric drainage, but I just wanted to know SOMETHING was leaving. Yeah, it is smart to count full calories regardless. Like prudence in accounting.

    Why yes, removing the grease from your food really is an effective weight loss strategy.
    Here's a guide from one of the old masters showing you how.

      lol, I think this is where I got the idea from. But isn't that common sense? It's not that I wanna eat less caloric noodles to lose weight, but that I don't wanna gain as much as I would if I ate them normally. Every calorie counts and the more I drop the number the better. But doesn't that make sense? The grease he ISN'T eating is the fat he ISN'T absorbing. Isn't that grease ON THE TISSUE NOW and not IN HIS FRICKING MOUTH? Doesn't that make sense?

    I know the shit can never be healthy. I'm simply trying to reduce the caloric intake AS MUCH AS POSSIBLE.
