Nabeh! This piece of information is untrue, thanks aw and earl-ku.
This is a very important information for lazy bum (too lazy to go out for dining on weekends) like me.
Normally, we cook the instant noodles by putting the noodles into a pot with water, throw in the powder and let it cook for 3 minutes.
Believe it or not, 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. The other thing that you may or may not realized is that, 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.
The Correct Way (which you may or may not know)
boil the noodles in a pot with water.once the noodles is cooked, take out the noodles, and throw away the water which contains wax.boil another pot of water till boiling and put the noodles into the hot boiling water and then shut the fire.only at this stage when the fire is off, and while the water is very hot, put the ingredient with the powder into the water, to make noodle soup.however, if you need dry noodles, take out the noodles n add the ingredient with the powder and toss it to get dry noodles.
Hope this piece of information is of importance to your health in relation to eating instant noodles and please apply this cooking method with immediate effect.
Eh I don’t think that the “wax” takes 4-5 days to exit your intestines. No such thing, this is a medical fallacy.
What you do get if you toss the cooking water is that you get rid of the oil that the noodles were fried in.
