Not that I complain but, why do they put the boiled egg on ramen?

It just seems weird to me to eat a soup with eggs, I asociate them with breakfast.

>> No.14768970

it's cheap and filling and adds perceived value

i usually eat the entire thing rather than chopping it up, people that do that are weird

yeah, putting eggs in shit like that is wrong

Normally it's ajitsuke tango, a runny egg seasoned for a couple of days in soy sauce, sake and mirin + optionally dashi and/or miso and/or tonkotsu broth and/or tare depending on the soup base it's being served with. Never seen a fucking hard boiled white egg in ramen. 100% the people who run that place aren't japanese.

Ohh! stracciatella soup is a proud Italian heritage! Next you'll be saying the Chinese invented spaghetti. Did you know an Italian invented the telephone?

Associating certain foods with certain meals is a total marketing meme. I eat bacon and eggs for any meal I want. Eggs are in plenty of foods you probably don't eat for breakfast, especially baked goods.
Plus ramen eggs are marinated overnight in chink sauce, so it's not just a straight up plain boiled egg.

associating food with a certain time of day is the dumbest shit. I get that its a cultural thing, not your fault, but it doesnt make any sense.

eggs are nutritious as fuck, and their protein absorbs slowly. great for breakfast to get to work, great before bed for muscle recovery.

cereal and pancakes are garbage at any time, but especially breakfast, fucking tanking your HGH and you're liable for a sugar crash as well. they should be desserts, really. I guess in countries other than the US pancake-like items are usually reserved as a dessert afaik

it is a bit weird considering slowly putting raw scampled egg into a boiling soup makes the most declicious delicade egg stands in your soup and improves it tenfold.

What I remember as chinese food growing up as a young kid in Hong Kong

>turtle/shark fin soup
>fried chicken feet
>pig uterus noodles
>fried rice with pork knuckle gristle
>unidentifed fish balls on a stick
>boiled dog meat
>one time, monkey brains

Americans have no idea how bad it really is. No one in china knows what the fuck beef and broccoli is or sweet and sour pork. Chinese food is disgusting. Literally the worst parts to eat of any animal. Makes sense because chinks are the race of humans closest to animals. They make disgusting noises when they eat, slurp everything, men in the streets lift their fucking wife beaters over their sweaty stomachs while laughing and chewing with their mouths full of food. Like what kind of idiot decided 2 sticks is the most practical way to eat grains of fucking rice. Starving Nigerians who eat grass have a better diet than the average chinese.

This feels wrong. I also eat it whole, I like it better when its two halves as opposed to just one, its nice to be able to have one at the start and one later
