I knew my dad was hopelessly wicked by the way he always smashed up the ramen noodles before cooking them

3@suquili At least that’s relatively orderly. Not my dad. He’d strangle the package
As a kid I thought "maybe it makes it more fun or something? Why didn't they just make the noodles tiny if that's how it was supposed to be made!?
Didn't realize until I had another when I was much older "OH HAHA THAT'S NOT ON THE INSTRUCTIONS OR ANYTHING MY DAD IS JUST A NUTCASE"
(I love him, but what a goober)

43The ramen part of the recipe calls for crushing up the noodles into small pieces. She'd have me whack the ramen package with a mallet while she did other stuff lol
"normal" coleslaw is good if you make it yourself
cole was slawwed
And even worse.. I know it's Dutch
Koolsla
Kool - cabbage
Sla - salad
lit. Cabbage salad
Originally Americans DID call it Cold Slaw, eventually changing it to Cole Slaw, cole coming from Caulis, latin relating to cabbage, coming full circle
very nice
This is prolly what happened to @bajax
I dunno how they dont get what Im trying to do for them
it's alright.
don't care for it now. can't tell ya
They've changed the packaging a couple of times since. Before it was easy to break the bag, but now you're stretching it until the seam suddenly splits open and scatters broken noodles all over the kitchen
(I'm most definitely *NOT* speaking from personal experience
@scenesbycolleen @suquili I suspect my dad did it because of the Biblical commandment not to eat strangled food. I certainly wouldn’t put it past him.
Tbh I’m always relieved when people are still in good with their parents.
I smash my ramen packets with a hammer to break up the noodles I am completely in control and don't have anger issues at all and will smash anyone that says otherwise in the face with a hammer.
