[[Image:Ramen.jpg|thumb|right|300px|Two types of ramen noodle soup, including the traditional Japanese kind]]
'''Ramen''' are [[Japan|Japanese]] [[noodles]] of [[China|Chinese]] origin. They are very popular snacks in the [[Pacific Rim]] and in [[United States|America]]. They are stereotypically associated with American college students because they (or at least their instant form, such as manufactured by Nissin) are typically very inexpensive.
==Ingredients==
A typical bowl of ramen consists of wheat noodles in a [[soy sauce]] broth. Usually, it is accompanied by a raw egg, ''naruto'' (a spiral fish paste), ''katsuo'' ([[bonito]]) flakes, and ''tonkatsu'' (a piece of barbecued pork). There are many different variations of the dish.
Instant ramen bowls and cups, the most well-known type in America, come in many different flavors. [[Chicken]] broth and [[beef]] broth are very popular. In [[South Korea]], one of the most popular varieties of ramen, [[Shin Ramyun]], is a spicy beef-flavored ramen that has gained popularity not only in its native country, but also in Japan and Korea.
