I had the idea while in the grocery store, walked by and sodium on the shelf there.

You need to hire a former baseball player as a cook. You can call him the Wholly Ramen Umpire.

From yesterday’s WSJ article on same subject ...

It will be written that Otto Habsburg lived and died a democrat, but sometimes I wonder. There is a story, perhaps apocryphal, that one morning, one of Habsburg’s aides in the European Parliament came to him and asked for the afternoon off. Habsburg asked why. The aide confessed somewhat sheepishly that he wanted to watch a soccer game.

Habsburg consented, then inquired. “Who is playing?”

“Austria and Hungary,” his staffer replied.

Habsburg is said to have looked up from his desk and asked: “Against whom?”

I’ll whack a bunch of your dried noodles with a baseball bat, and give you some Stimulated Ramen Scattering.

Only if he knows absolutely nothing about the game of baseball. ;’)

Probably would hire a pitcher for the kitchen, but I’d have to hire three more, in order to schedule the rotini, er, rotation.

Goes without saving.

I would buy a pitcher if I needed one in the kitchen. How do you hire a pitcher? Do they have lawyers? Agents? News to me.

You’re right. It was a reach, but I’m a ratatouille. (sick rat)

It’s wise to be a little wary of a pitcher, in case he’s a plant.

That would be a recipe for disaster. A plant would really stir the pot and cook up a lot of trouble.
