here's teh strat: open that packet, dump it in your mouth, get some 7-up (diet if you're trying to save calories), dump that sucker in your mouth, you get a zesty lime flavor explosion...don't swallow yet, the fun is about to start! Dump them noodles in that primordial soup in your mouth. Now jump around (house of pain). See, you don't need to cook those noodles, that's what the big guys in washington want you to believe. Bottoms up! (or should I say Sevens Up!!!)
