Newly promoted managers at Nissin Food Products need to survive three days on a tiny, uninhabited island where they will dig their own toilets, make fire from dry leaves, catch their own fish and even carve their chopsticks from local bamboo.

And if they get really, really desperate and hungry, they'll eat their own Ramen noodles.

Futon island

Well at least they'll have something to sleep on.

We should nuke Japan every 30 to 50 years, just to knock some sense back into them.

Ramen Noodles = 15 cents per package = more money for beer in college.

I knew a guy, and this was all he ate for an entire semester.

I've been out of college for over 15 years and I still love Ramen noodles. I guess some things you just never outgrow.

This isn't a boot camp. 3 days? So, if they have a hard time coping with it, they can call it a bad week-end. Send em out for 8 weeks. then we know they are serious.

This would be a good thing for politicians and ceo types to have to do just to shock them back to the "real world"

Just don't give them any supplies at all(well maybe some flint...)

I came pretty close to that once. I had so many carbohydrates in me I had to run a couple of times a day just to burn off the energy.

Survival hint: If you use iodine tablets to purify your water, don't be surprised when your ramen noodles turn blue. (If it's chicken ramen, though, the flavoring turns everything a very lovely bright green.)
