Cooking with blue.

That's far too many carbs for one sitting - 53.7gms. That's almost as many as I consume in one day. Not to mention the sodium - YIKES - 2338mg!! We only need 500mg/day.

You ought to see what I eat. *Way* worse than that. Well, if a large Big Mac with sweet tea for lunch is worse than that.

Ill put hot sauce or mustard on anything, I think.

I put hot sauce on most anything. Not mustard, though. Mustard tastes phunny.

Me too! Especially now.... bring on the hot sauce!!!!!

Ow, Blue! You lost me after the hot'n'spicy noodles and the hot sauce! I need some water to cool my taste buds! I like those Asian noodle mixes for lunch at work, because they're quick and warm; but they all have lots of sodium.

I have a recipe for chicken and noodles in the style of chicken Satay, for which you use peanut butter. It's not bad!

You know, you can always use the noodles and ditch the "flavor packet" and add your own lower-sodium spices! Or some chopped up veggies - small pieces will cook in the hot water and add flavor.

Make up a ziplock with a teaspoon or so of onion flakes, some rosemary and thyme, and whatever else you might like, add a little soy or salt - you control the amount - and there you have yummy, healthier noodles. Still warm, still tasty, less sodium!

Sure Karen if he wanted to take all the fun out of it

Ugh!!! Blah!!! You really do need to improve your diet.

And were you really serious about adding peanut butter to that?????

THe peanut butter adds MUCH to the taste and enjoyment. Spicy Thia food and peanuts go hand in hand.

Even cake and ice cream - or pumpkin pie?

Ice cream or pie, Ill try with the Franks, not so much with the Frenches.

I thought hackers survived on nothing but Hot Pockets?

Green onions are really good and so are carrots.

Has anyone ever tried a can of 'toona' in the mix? Water packed tuna works the best-drain well first!

A lesson I learned pretty quickly?

I bought some noodle bowls that were on sale at my Phillipino fish store. The size was a bargain-I feel like a pig when one CoS does not fill me up- the label was mostly printed in Japanese and the picture on the front made me want to eat more than one!

The words Hot or Spicy on the package mean that you are in for a spicy, lip burning, stomach scorching, brow wetting event like no other. I muddled through the first one I tried and the others sat in the cupboard for months afterwards.

I grew up on spicy, but this stuff should have been illegal.

We still eat Hot Pockets (and mountain dew) a lot more than normal. You ought to see my desk :P.

We spicy food lovers came up with something called the Scoville scale, basically measures how hot something is. What you ate is probably around the level of a Tabasco pepper. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Scovill...oville_ratings

Ok, now lets see someone try pure capsaicin.

I do tabasco all the time.....This stuff was nuclear!

I really hurt the next day!

Okay, that does not sound good to me at all. I had a bowl of homemade chicken noodle soup for lunch because my stomach has not been happy so far today for some reason.
