Did you know soy sauce Top Ramen is vegan? Maruchan isn’t so don’t get em confused!

The greens are raw sweet peas and green onion.

    I was in my 30 before I realized not everyone gets a massive headache to the point you can’t see straight from eating raw onions. I thought everyone just loved onion so much that they dealt with the pain, like eating really spicy food and having a burning butthole later. That is to say, this picture hurts my head.

      I think this is one of the better pictures here. Most pictures have sad lighting and show some depressing, unidentifiable brown mass.

      They do need a shaper knife however.

        1. Less greens. This looks like a salad. Uk, one of those “healthy” dishes ur mum made/makes.
        2. Finer chopping.
        3. Mix the greens with the spaghetti properly (except for the spring onion greens).
        4. Better bowl to eat from.
        5. Less amount. This amount of stuff in this bowl looks like two cows are going to graze on it.
        6. Put this in a nice little mound in the middle of the serving plate/bowl.
        7. Garnish using chopped spring onion. Remember… “GARNISH”. This is NOT A SALAD.

          While I do agree with a couple of points, the amount of greens isn’t a problem. Especially in Japan they like to load heaps of spring onions onto their food. Okonomiyaki often has a mountain of spring onions.

          And this isn’t a photography community. While most pictures here are just plain sad, this one has some color in it. And it’s about the food I guess.

            Wow, didn’t know that. I just have a lot of PTSD from my mum shoving a shit load of veggies where they weren’t supposed to be cuz they were “healthy”. Like not in salads n stuff lol. Just everywhere!

          My vegan food signal group (just me and two close friends) often send one ‘nice presentation’ pic and one ‘this is how it actually looked before digging in’ pic. Sure, little spring onion in the middle looks nicer and shows more of the rest of the dish, but spring onion slaps so I heap it on after taking the picture.

            Hehe yea spring onion is magical. Uk, if u like a lot of spring onion, u could mix it and then serve nicely, no? I dunno, for me the visual aspect is also very important when I eat.

              I’m bigger on temperatures and textures than visuals, so I like to leave them on top so they stay cold and as crunchy as possible. Different strokes!

          Interesting, to me, those points all except 4 would have made it look way worse.

          Yeah I totally just throw this together every night before bed, I could have presented it better. Mixed the onion in instead of leaving it on top, used a real knife instead of scissors, you raise good points.

          Tasty though.

          Also it’s not spaghetti! It’s a noodle soup. Very important.
