Ramen is a Japanese noodle dish that consists of a meaty broth, noodles, and shredded vegetables and meats. The popular food is available fresh at noodle stands all over Japan, and also in a dried, packaged form that is widely eaten all over the world. Inexpensive packaged ramen is often associated with poverty, because it provides basic nutrition on a limited budget and can be easily dressed up with the addition of vegetables and meats. In Japan, this dish is eaten widely by all classes, and can be found in incarnations from simple to gourmet.
