I think I'm going to attempt to experience the ultimate in flavor this weekend and gorge myself on some pizza rolls. I've read this thread in its entirety over the years, and I've had pizza rolls in the (distant) past, but I don't remember the specific Rerolled requirements. Please forgive me.
What brand do I need, and what are the preferred flavors (hoping pepperoni, as that is my favorite)? Am I going to nuke them, or bake them, or eat some of them cold while the rest are cooking? And what is the minimum number consumed in one sitting to be considered a pizza roll connoisseur? What quantity is honorary McCheese?
Thanks in advance!

There is no other pizza roll in my mind than Totino's. The pepperoni is a staple and one of my favorites. Don't get too crazy for your first go at it. If you really, really want to spice up your life get a can of parmesan cheese to sprinkle over the rolls after you take them out of the oven. The dusty parmesan works better than the shredded. And yes you will be taking them out of the oven not the nuker.
When I was in Hawaii getting ramen and asked for a fork I was pretty sure they blew dust off it before giving it to me. Fork is the superior instrument to chop sticks.

You have to eat at least a 40 count bag of totinos in one sitting, as you're a novice this is acceptable for the first time. Subsequent attempts must be 40-80/120.
I like the pepperoni ones because it's just a classic taste. The three meat is ok too. I haven't tried the exotic flavors like buffalo yet.
If you cook them in the microwave I will ban you from this thread, you have to oven them. You might want to monitor them. There's a split second window where the rolls get cooked just enough before they all start bursting, try to minimize bursting. Make sure you spread them out so they can all get a decent crunch going on.
I eat mine plain, but I guess you could dip them in ranch or franks or something. Putting parmesan cheese on them is about the worst thing I could think of.

Parmesan isn't even a super taster thing - my father forced us to eat it on spaghetti every week. It was some sort of abuse.

Chopsticks in your dominant hand, spoon in the other. Any other way of eating Ramen is wrong.

The way god intended ramen to be eaten was out of a cup with a goddamn fork. I don't live in some blurred-out genital loving country and don't shove squids up my ass
I find using a fork in the dominate hand (and still the spoon) to just be easier. I honestly find chop sticks to always be inferior to the fork.

As someone who doesn't like to eat, you're hardly one to cast the first stone in a thread about eating.
I never got the chop stick elitists. It's easier to use a fork...so use a fork. Use two hands to eat noodles so I can use a spoon in the other hand? Man...if only there was one thing I could use that would free up that other hand to allow for easy consumption...
Oh wait, there is, a gosh damned fork.

A good ramen place is just as fast as a Wendy's considering all they do is pour the broth and assemble the bowl. Place I go it's usually like 5 minutes from walking in to eating.
Also, a good pho or ramen is perfect for a hangover.

When you figure out how to eat soup with a regular fork, let me know. Chopsticks in one hand in order to gather up noodles + ingredients quickly and easily for slurping. Spoon in the left hand for mouthful of soup between the noodles.
Also Ramen is fast food. You're in and out in under 10 minutes. There's no tables, just a counter, and the guys make it with military precision.
A Chipotle-esque Asian place that has been popping up all over the place here is Bibibop. Its ok. I wasn't blown away when I went there.

Is there anything worse than listening to someone slurp their noodles, get me out of this twilight zone
