The only crime here is this sodium grenade not being in my belly.

I was on board until I saw "with cream cheese" on the cup.

- I don't want to know what that poor cream cheese has been through in order to make it into that product.

- In fairness, cream + broth is pretty standard in cooking. It sounds gross but likely just adds body to the broth.

  I know a lot of soups with q creamy base, but I can't think of any with noodles. I'm sure they exist, I just can't think of them. But cream cheese is much thicker and has a specific flavor that isn't what I would expect in soup.

Just bought the breakfast ramen yesterday. It's maple flavored with chunks of eggs and sausage. Not very good.

- Gotta say part of me is disappointed in you
  
  But proud of your adventurous spirit too
  
  As long as you didn’t expect to love it I think we’re OK

- That's pretty much what my five minutes of research into this product revealed as well – the everything bagel version is apparently surprisingly tasty, but the sausage and egg version is not.
  
  But let's be honest: have you ever seen dried sausage in any instant product that actually works? As a child, I remember occasionally eating some sort this meatball soup that came as an instant powdered mix. And invariably, these pretend meat chunks always ended up tasting like cardboard and rubber and were obviously not very pleasant or satisfying.

If there was a god he'd be preparing to flood the Earth again.

- There is, but he is flooding it with Everything Bagel seasoning

They've already put everything on a bagel. So now they're putting an everything bagel everywhere.

- Ah, the Everything Bagel Theory of the Universe.

And for dessert, how about some purple sweet potato-flavored Kit Kats?

All hail Jobu Tupaki!

I've had the bagel one, it was the most disgusting thing I've ever eaten

- I honestly can't imagine it being very good, but reviewers actually seem to like it, albeit it's unclear whether they were paid to say so or not.
  
  The maple egg and sausage version they also offer, however, supposedly is awful by all accounts.

Both my daughter & wife would probably love these.

- I mean, jokes aside, according to some reviews I’ve read these are actually pretty good, albeit likely not for your health.

  My daughter has POTS; her cardiologist basically is telling us to get as much salt in her as possible. This seems like a win for her.

they ran out of shitty ideas to new flavors I guess
