Tom Yum paste is pretty much the antithesis of that twitter arguement, you can literally throw it in water and make a fairly decent instant soup. Theres lots of actual dishes you can make with it but tbh my most common usage for it is just to improve some lazy ramen.
I've had tom yum at my favorite Thai place, you're catching me out that by Asian I really meant Japanese, I probably won't invest in this but I'm definitely trying to develop my game of "cook instant ramen, toss the flavoring pack in the trash, and throw a lot of real ingredients at it."
counterpoint: reserve the flavouring packs and save them to use as seasoning
I wage the internal struggle each day to resist that siren's call and you're telling me to steer my ship into the rocks it'll be fine.
