Should You Eat Ramen on Toast?

I don’t know when it happened, but at some point we—as a society—decided that it was indecent to consume a carbohydrate on or in another carbohydrate. There are some exceptions, such as Taco Bell’s now retired spicy potato soft taco and the UK’s chip butty, but in most circles, carb-on-carb is a fairly rare configuration.

Potatoes are the easiest to get away with. Both the taco and butty (which is British for “odd little sandwich”) I mention above use potato as the “filling carb,” and a wheat-based carb as the delivery system. Getting two wheat-based carbs involved, on the other hand, feels awkward—but that’s exactly what reader Kurt suggested I do.

I believe the British word is “Buddie” not “Butty”

I never got the “French dip” treatment for roast beef sandwiches.

Or, the chowder in a hollowed-out loaf of bread approach.

Love French dip but the hot Italian beef is a serious soup sandwich

Spaghetti sandwiches have been around forever. This isn’t that different.

I would NOT eat ramen on toast
I would not eat it on the coast
I would not eat it with a ghost
I would not eat it just to boast
thus ends my ramen post

I think if you are a real loser, then yes, you should eat ramen on toast.

In Japan.

In public.

There is a place here that is known for chicken. One of the menu items is chicken and noodles, which are served over a bed of mashed potatoes. Here it is from the menu:

“Egg noodles with chunks of chicken and vegetables in a thick broth over mashed potatoes, with one side.”
