Vegetarian Miên Chay

Vegetarian Miên Chay prior to adding hot water.
(Click for more photos…)
While over at Nino Salvaggio International Marketplace in Troy yesterday I picked up a $0.69 Vietnamese cup of noodles labeled solely Vegetarian Miên Chay. Despite a tremendous 2100mg of sodium per serving, I rather liked this cup of noodles. The saltyness is a bit much and the noodles clumpted together a bit, but it quite tasty with a bit of hot spicyness to it. It even includes a rather ingenious folding plastic fork.
The whole cup had an odd air of cheapness to it, and I have a strange almost-sweet aftertaste in my mouth (communism?), but I must say that it tasted pretty decent. The rest of the photos are available by clicking either the image above, or this link (photo gallery retired).
LOL! I miss you and your comic musings, my friend. :)
I have to admit, that’s not my joke. < hangs head in shame >
But, still, hilarious, and I could honestly see you coming up with it. :)
you know your a college student when a cup of instant noodles makes you hungry…
dammit now i need dinner.
