I've never had, or seen. Maggi Noodles. But I love noodles. So I am neutral at this time.

Google it. I'm in debate club. But okay: 

 

First Affirmative Constructive- Where you state your arguments. Say, "Cats are cool because they're fuzzy." and I will cross-examine that.

I would like to begin my cross-examination. 

First of all, you stated that cooking time was too short. May I state that the cooking time is 3 minutes in boiling water. Are you sure this is what you did?

Second of all, please stay out of bias and personal stories. "You might as well try to find some plastic and put some salt on it and eat that rather than Ramen noodles." What a low blow! Please keep out your personal opinions!

Heck, more indgreideints = better? Yeah, McDonalds has trillions of ingriedients and look how healthy it is! For example, Maggi has flavor enchancers related to PIG FAT. Chew on that, ady!

Please answer my questions

But now that you asked, I will give quote.

 

 Also a huge number of popular packed foods such as Magginoodles, biscuits etc and even other products such as toothpaste, soaps etc contain animal fat in them, that too, mostly PIG FAT.

You see, Maggie Noodles contains MSG, and I quote " can cause many adverse reactions, including skin rashes, itching, hives, nausea, vomiting, migraine headaches, asthma, heart irregularities, depression and even seizures

Since MSG acquired its infamous reputation for causing migraines, the food industry has given it new names and new forms, including autolyzed yeast, yeast extract, maltodextrin, hydrolyzed protein, sodium caseinate, mono-potassium glutamate, and textured protein."

One serving (1 block or 100 grams) of noodles contains 1170 mg. of sodium aka salt, almost half of the USDA 2400 mg maximum. The noodles provide 10% of your daily calcium and 12% of your daily iron requirement. Other than that the Maggi brand noodles have no nutritional benefit. Clearly, Maggi Noodles have no health benefits.

 

I quote once more. "Normally, how we cook the instant noodles is to put the noodles into a pot with water, throw in the powder and let it cook for around 3/2 minutes and then it’s ready to eat.

NO, this is the WRONG method of cooking the instant noodles.

By doing this, when we actually boil the ingredients in the powder, normally with MSG, it will change the molecular structures of the MSG
causing it to be toxic." 

 

Heck, this quote is the most disturbing. the noodles are coated with wax and it will take around 4 to 5 days for the body to excrete the wax after you have taken the noodles.

To summarize, Maggi noodles make you gain weight, are coated in disgusting wax, if cooked unhealthily are toxic, contain no nutrition, and cause migrains, seizures, and other nasty effects.

Ady, you may begin your cross-examination

I vote Ramen .

since only the "Top Ramen brand Oriental flavor", is any good. out of all Ramen and Maggi Noodle flavors sold... the rest of them are posion.

in other words Ramen wins, simply because it actually sells one flavor worth eating.  

if you want to eat these type of noodles, buy only "Top Ramen brand Oriental flavor"

Why are you all debating about noodles? Pizza is boss. I hereby close this "debate" to start a new one about pizza.

Hey Hey this is actually important. There are people having war over this.

Avatar of Babytigrrr

Ramen. Obviously.

Avatar of praveenb2002

Instead of claiming that the opposing argument is unhealthy, why don't you try giving some positive things about your side. So far, you're making me think that both Maggie and Ramen noodles are unhealthy and bad.

Avatar of praveenb2002

What you should be debating about is what tastes better: eating 30 days in a row at McDonalds or eating 30 days in a row at KFC.
