I went and got proper lo mein noodles. I had leftover fried chicken and used the wings for the protein.

I have one more bag of noodles. They are $2.99 for 8 ounces. I will not be buying them again. They are just a egg pasta. I’ll make my own.

Cost per person $4 Cost of I make the noodles: something close to $2.50

    This is not criticism, it’s my personal failure/weirdness: does this extreme yellow/brown color and shape of the noodles remind anyone else of worms or insects? I’m almost gagging looking at it, it doesn’t look appetizing to me at all 😅

      I don’t see it but I can see how you can see it. On the other hand, on the kind of person who would love to have a few crickets and grasshoppers in here if that were available. Because I have no issue with eating land shrimp.

        I think… I’m mostly influenced by my constant gastric issues right now. I don’t even know why I made that comment. Carry on :)
