      Let me introduce you to the rapid ramen cooker, a microwaveable tray that claims to make ramen with only half the regular amount of sodium.

      You know how the cooker enables this?

      You add half the flavor packet.

      Can’t make this shit up.

          I have so many leftover packets because I always make mine with better than bullion, hoisin sauce, and chili flakes.

        Nothing better than selling a single-purpose bit of plastic intended to go into the microwave and boil water that is functionally a replacement for a bowl that you presumably already have that expressly states that you can only use it for up to 5 years.

          Yeah it’s an absolute travesty. At least it seems people have gone the opposite way and it looks like folks use it as a bowl, so there’s that.

      It’d be illegal as as those statements are regulated to a standard serving. Except for net product amount.
