@bruceha2000 yes, the ramen my kidlets ate did still have a high sodium content, even with the addition of veggies and an egg. This was 8 years ago. When I got these kids they had been in state custody almost since birth and had been in more foster homes than they'd had birthdays. Food, to them, was: hot dogs, pizza, chicken nuggets, Burger King and McD's burgers, ice cream, candy, soda, candy, chips, etc. It was a victory for good health to get them to put veggies in the ramen and actually eat it. They came to me with gigantic bottles of powdered fiber to add to their fruit juice daily, stuff I thought only old people needed! I had to start somewhere! Now they both eat fruit, veggies, and whole grains. The Kid's favorite snack is frozen bananas and strawberries. The Girl makes smoothies daily with yogurt, frozen fruit and almond milk. We don't have junk food in the house. The only thing we use sugar for is the humm'bird feeder. They are fit and healthy. And they haven't eaten ramen in years. Are you feeling okay?
