Nah, this was a deliberate effort of mine to try all the junky crap I basically never eat, so this haul is entirely representative of me trying to eat crappy and basically the opposite of the local diet that I've been enjoying so far.

I only ever see Indonesians eating freshly prepared, unprocessed food, and their produce/meat sections have very fresh, varied ingredients.

Everyone is pretty thin here, I don't actually think I've seen an overweight Indonesian yet now that you mention it.

Thanks, there are an absurd selection of instant noodles, so I got three, and then my friend instantly told me I should have gotten a different brand haha, so I guess I'll have to try them also.

You know what's really interesting though? Indonesians put the boiling water into the cup of noodles for 3 minutes but then they poke a small hole at the top and drain out the water and then mix in the seasoning, so you get a much stronger flavor and the noodles don't go crazy mushy after one extra minute in the soup.

I don't think I've ever come across that practice before, and I eat instant noodles very rarely, but I definitely like this preparation method much more than leaving the water in after the noodles are boiled.

Haha, yea, the instant noodle aisle here is ridiculous, so I thought I'd try a few since I never eat instant noodles, and then I figured I'd just get all the other terrible snacks I never eat.

It's been fun.

Funny answer: Who's asking? Details, please.

Actual: sorry I don't get it. The sukiyaki meat?
