You realize H Mart sells more than ramen and kimchi? Also ramen is a Japanese food, Korean noodles are called ramyeon

The post above is pretty stupid, but even though H Mart is Korean they definitely sell all kinds of Asian food.

Yeah that’s true but that person seemed to be making fun of Korean food so I wanted to point out the food they were criticizing wasn’t even Korean 😂

Pennwisedom t1_jcs7dgc wrote

Fair enough. I'm also pretty sure H Mart does sell a lot of what he's complaining about.

HMart sells a lot of actual ramen too. They might be a Korean shop, but they sell a lot of ramen.

They have an entire aisle dedicated to instant noodles it’s actually a little intimidating lol my arteries get nervous when I walk by

instant noodles are really unhealthy and carcinogenic

picklefluffer t1_jcuzgl6 wrote

The air we breathe is unhealthy and carcinogenic tbh I think the environmental toxins we are exposed to on a daily basis will kill us long before a few instant noodles will

picklefluffer t1_jcvj8lh wrote

I mean, yeah you shouldn’t eat them every day but is it such a bad thing to have them available as a convenient snack/meal?

much more heavy on packaged foods aka processed foods than other grocery stores

i’d go there for produce and that’s about it. they don’t carry traditional beef cuts that are grass fed

Don’t apologize for wanting that! Just apologize for being obnoxious and coming across a little racist!!

[deleted] t1_jcs725v wrote

instant noodles are carcinogenic but yes the store that carries 100 varieties of instant noodles is what everyone wants as their neighborhood grocery store

right right

Go to Whole Foods and stop b*tching.

You’re living on the wrong side of the country if you like sprouts. Move to Colorado

They do have dried noodles which is different from instant noodles. If only you'd educate yourself, you'd know the difference.

"Literally all the same." Actually it's not. If you'd read the ingredients on dried vs instant noodles you'd know that but guess we're all the same so it doesn't matter ro you.

Edit - had to keep clicking parent comment, apologies poster, I think I had clicked into a specific reply when scrolling. Turns out you didn’t have to scroll that far for certain perspective. I would def agree with your comment, my bad.

no it doesn’t

you can’t buy a regular ribeye steak there and definitely not one that is grass fed. they have thin beef cuts for korean dishes nothing like a normal grocery store at all

and they have very little organic produce options most of it is conventional
