Perhaps I should've read the box first

Glad I’m not allone in recycling boxes way too quickly.

Just double-checking how long I’m supposed to boil this ramen for.

Yup. Still three minutes.


This needs to be repeated 2 or 3 times for full accuracy


Yeah …. after many years of throwing away the package … I now carefully unwrap the package to not destroy the instructions (sometimes I even just snap a picture of it all if the design means I have to tear open everything) … then keep the package on the counter until after supper when everything is done.

And no matter how many times I’ve cooked the same type of prepackaged rice for the 100th time …. I’ll still check to see how many minutes I’m supposed to boil the damned thing.


Putting paper+cardboard in a different bin makes this a lot less gross.


I don’t come here to be attacked like this


Take a picture of the box before tossing
