I actually mentioned scurvy because a friend of a friend had this happen to them in college. (Maybe we're talking about the same person.)
Friend thought they wouldn't have gotten scurvy, if they prepared the instant ramen with the seasoning packet, but they ate only the noodles brick. I don't know what brand ramen it was, but the Maruchan and Nissin nutrition info I looked at just now doesn't show any Vitamin C currently.
- cogman10 2y agoWhat's sort of crazy is it takes a very small amount of vitamin C occasionally to avoid scurvy. Basically, if once a month you get the RDA of vitamin C you are unlikely to get scurvy. Throw some broccoli or brussels sprout into a meal rotation and you'll be scurvy free.
