msg nissan cup o noodle Cup O Noodles or Cup O MSG?Starving college kids will recognize this one. The portable noodle treat in a styrofoam cup.

It can only do what it was designed to do, make your food taste great at the expense of your health. I used to eat these a lot when I was younger, but I know better now. Nissin Cup O Noodles come in many flavors but unfortunately they all include monosodium glutamate (MSG).
