It's Fast

It's Cheap

It's always available

It instantly makes me Happy

It keeps me content and satiated

When I'm stressed, I go make some ramen, and feel better immediately...



Now, addiction is a process,  and  is it not possible that something as innocent as delicious ramen, or even chocolate, are initiators of this process, by which a person makes decisions about Doing something.

I want to feel good, I want to feel good NOW..



This is what many foods,  Including ramen seems to bring to the table..   Perhaps that's why Many people (including Tp4) can not shake the mid-life   Fatness..


Because by the time MOST PEOPLE reach mid-life,  they've been exposed to this Addiction process (via food) in Some form..
