The only instant thing about 2-minute noodles in my kitchen is the instant gratification it brings. I don’t find myself indulging in them very often except when I don’t have the time to cook myself a proper meal. Or just on days, I think I am too busy to cook - for most of these bowls end up in a filling meal, using perhaps leftovers from the fridge or toppings that get ready in almost the same time as the noodles cook.
