Answer 1

"raw-men"

Answer 2

I have always wondered the same thing. Since I didn't know the correct pronunciation, I always referred to them as "those little packages of hard noodles with the little packet of stuff you mix with water." Last Saturday, I was working at a food pantry. They had lots of Ramen Noodles. I heard people refer to them as "ray-men," "rah-men," "row-man," and "romaine" (like the lettuce!) noodles! I think I will just keep buying and eating them and refrain from talking about them.

Answer 3

I've always said it "Raw-Men" and have always heard it pronounced "Raw-Men" as well. I've never heard of "Roman Noodles" so I'll go with mispronunciation for 200.



And I'll bet it all with Rock n' Roll

Answer 4

I've never heard of roman noodles. RAHmen. My mom calls em Raymen, but that's just her. I think that the "men" means noodles, so I think that saying ramen noodles is like saying spaghetti noodles or macaroni pasta...the noodle part isn't really necessary.



MP: What the heck. I'm in a hippie mood today.
