Ramen noodles? What are They?


You know what a piece of crap my long-term memory is. That’s why I’m going to hedge this reminisce so that I don’t unjustly accuse any female relations of being classist.

I distinctly remember being in the grocery store with a female relative. I was young, young enough that I could easily see things on the bottom shelf. Old enough that I could read the labels.

“Older female relative,” I asked, “What are Ramen Noodles? Why don’t we ever eat Ramen Noodles?”
“Because only White Trash eat Ramen Noodles” was the answer.

I remember this conversation every time I see Ramen Noodles. Gary, for example, loves Ramen Noodles. I don’t eat them, of course.

I have no idea what cranked me up to 10% – oh, wait, yes I do:

  1. Of all my blogfriends who have taken this quiz, I have scored the highest. No. I am not proud of this and my only excuse is that I smoked for years. But I maintain that because I work in theatre (Shakespeare, no less), I can shave off at least 10 of my white trash points. That’s my story and I’m stickin’ to it.

  2. I scored 8%, and I will agree that I was lucky there are no Kraft Mac & Cheese questions. I made that last night.I hang my head in shame because I have a non-working TV on the floor in my bedroom. At least I don’t have a non-working car on blocks in my driveway.
