I don't know why anyone would choose ramen as a poverty meal. Beans cost about the same and are far more nutritious.

Because it's easier to make, easy to clean up, and NOODLES!

Wait, you're saying you can get the same "nutrition to cost" value out of wet beans? I assumed you meant dry beans (and this would need to soak and actually cook them).

This might just be location specific, but wet beans are much more expensive (in terms of calories per dollar) compared to ramen every where I've seen (lived in South West and Mid Atlantic of US).

Are you saying that's not the case where you're at?
