Unless they changed what's in them in the past couple of years, they used to be loaded with MSG.

Agreed. Why would anyone use that mystery powder anyway? ??? They are a tasty little noodle though (for a noodle) when used as part of a recipe.

Ramen and similar products are often criticized as being unhealthy or junk food. A single serving of instant noodles is high in carbohydrates but low in fiber, vitamins and minerals. Noodles are typically fried as part of the manufacturing process, resulting in high levels of saturated fat and/or trans fat. Additionally, if served in an instant broth, it typically contains high amounts of sodium, usually in excess of 60% the U.S. Recommended Dietary Allowance (1,200-1,440 mg). Some brands may have over 3,000 mg of sodium in extreme cases.
The most recent controversy concerns dioxin and other hormone-like substances that could theoretically be extracted from the packaging and glues used to pack the instant noodles. As hot water is added, it was reasoned that harmful substances could seep into the soup. After a series of studies were conducted, various organizations requested changes in the packaging.[3]
Another major concern on the health drawback of consuming the instant noodles is that the products can be manufactured with oxidized fat and oils if the process is not better managed. Oxidized fat and oils are health hazard substances which induce neurotoxins and which make neurocells hypoactive.[4][5][6]

If you are just looking to add calories to your diet romen noodles is a very effective and cheap way of doing this.
Else if you don't want to become a fat ass, buy some real food.
However if you do eat romen, I highly recommend the beef noodles. Then add 1 tablespoon of butter to them, for an awesome ( but not healthy ) meal.

Worst advice EVER.
If you need more calories, add some olive oil to your meals, but why would you want to add transfats and saturated fats to your diet? You get enough from real food, no need to add this garbage.
