along with other elements of the Chinese culture much much later on. Originally called 'lamen' in Japan, the dish is later referred to as 'ramen ' as there are no distinctions between the 'L' and 'R' sound in the Japanese language. Today, practically the entire Asia region eats ramen or 'la-mian' and after the invention of packaged ramen by the Japanese, ramen-eating became even more popular due to the ease in cooking the noodles, not only in Asia, but also in many Western countries like America. Ramen Flavours Generally, ramen in Asia is very spicy and seasoned with vegetables, seaweed, boiled eggs, and other assorted ingrediants to create a relatively more exotic flavour. Ramen in America, however, is mostly chicken flavored and tastes much milder. Moreover, American ramen usually has a high amount of MSG (monosodium glutamate) to make up for the lack of authentic Asian ramen taste. Ramen could well be the most popular food choice among college students because it is cost effective and easy to prepare.
