Yours was obviously an example, and I liked it! I'm teasing the parent post for totally missing your point and/or creating a false dichotomy that students have

  Well, one thing I always found the the difference between "bad" Ramen and "good" Ramen tends to be the content of the package and how well it holds up with water being added, poor Ramen tends to have loads of air pockets between the Noodles, whereas good Ramen will be packed in tight, and when you add water to good Ramn, it tends to keep it's consistency, poor Ramen tends to become overly liquid. That aside, if you have, say, The Nations Noodle (UK), it's cheaper than "Super Noodles" but still a quality Ramen - the price difference is 300%, but when we are talking about $0.60, it's not much to be honest. As for spices, I tend to add a bit of Mixed Spice, otherwise it would spend the next 20 years sitting on my top shelf, and Hot Chilli powder gives a nice kick, especially if you add it to the meat during preparation.
