Many of us can't do without " Maggi " especially when one is away from home, in a foreign land. Here is a piece of information to share so that we can remove the potential health hazard of consuming Maggi.
Maybe you should print this e-mail to keep as a reminder, pin it up in the kitchen or dining room as reminder or in your purse if you are always travelling.

CORRECT WAY OF COOKING NOODLES'
The correct way to cook instant noodles without harming our bodies and health. `Normally, how we cook the instant noodles is to put the noodles into a pot with water, throw in the powder and let it cook for around 3 minutes and then it's ready to eat.

This is the WRONG method of cooking the instant noodles.

By doing this, when we actually boil the ingredients in the powder, normally with MSG, it will change the molecular structures of the MSG causing it to be toxic.

The other thing that you may or may not realize is that, the noodles are coated with wax and it will take around 4 to 5 days for the body to excrete the wax after you have taken the noodles.


CORRECT METHOD:

1. Boil the noodles in a pot with water.

2. Once the noodles is cooked, take out the noodles, and throw away the water which contains wax.

3. Boil another pot of water till boiling and put the noodles into the hot boiling water and then shut the fire.

4. Only at this stage when the fire is off, and while the water is very hot, put the ingredient with the powder into the water, to make noodle soup.

5. However, if you need dry noodles, take out the noodles and add the ingredient with the powder and toss it to get dry noodles.

Dietician's Note:
If you buy plain hakka noodles which you make initially need to boil in water and discard the water. This will soften the noodles but to prevent it from sticking we need to add a tbsp of oil and also the noodles are deep fried partially to make it crunchy and then dusted with flour to prevent it from sticking while boiling. Hence when you buy the noodles they are already made unhealthy and this is the type we use to make stir fry noodles and the regular Maggie too is made the same way plus they add MSG / Ajinomoto and other chemical preservatives.

A large number of patient with the ages ranging from 18-24 years are ending up with pancreatitis either as a swelling or infection of the pancreas due to regular consumption of instant noodles... If the frequency is more than 3 times a week, then it is very hazardous...

Please share this info and help save a life.

oh noes

u know what makes the noodle taste nice? the starch amount in the water its boiled in. if you follow this method then all of the starch is gone

doesnt matter what you eat or how to prepare your food. if your prone to have cancer u will get it nonetheless.

straight to the point, add a boiled water in mangkuk (though one), put maggi mee into it and make sure it sinks inside the water. cover the mangkuk, wait 2-5 mins, add flavourings, enjoice. there's no difference in between maggi, cintan or else.

lol XD

1 time job become 2 time job...thus use more time
not called instant noodle anymore

Have been practising that since years ago. Anyways, thanks for informing ts!

That's why we have nasi babi.

Instant noodles have low nutritional value(it only makes you feel full due to carbohydrates in the noodles), not worth eating empty calories.

Also when you eat out, restaurants use lots of msg that they mix in during cooking, so best is buy fresh stuff and cook.

wah....so many steps? So its not instant noodles anymore is it?

LMAO.
The continuation...

zzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzz

Monosodium glutamate, or MSG, is a flavor enhancer classified by the FDA (Food and Drug Administration) as a generally recognized as safe, or GRAS, ingredient. Likewise, the World Health Organization (WHO) has classified it as “not specified”, the safest category for a food additive, and has chosen not to set a limit on Accepted Daily Intake (ADI) of MSG.

Generally, MSG is added to foods before, during or after cooking. It is a stable food element, which means that it does not change its molecular structure when added to boiling water or with other ingredients. Therefore, it is not (nor does it become) toxic.

Furthermore, instant noodles do not contain any wax. Noodle strands do not stick together because of cassava or potato starch, one of its main ingredients. Starch is what gives instant noodles its smooth texture and chewy bite. Its removal will cause clumping among the strands.

Neither do the styrofoam containers have wax. Styrofoam is composed of 95% air and 5% polystyrene. It meets stringent US FDA standards for use in food packaging and is safe for consumers. It does not in any way transfer its odor or taste to food because it is an inert, unreactive material.

stop posting stupid chain mail ........and TS is super slowpoke

lazy to do that...

u foreget to add abalone

oh i seen this be4..
abt last year i think

Btw , if use maggie cook like that gg liao can't eat

ok ty, when i was free i did this, when in rush i didn't care

what bullshit is this....

maggi eat wax baru healthy

wax? i thot our californian red apples got lots of wax. the skin also lap lap bling bling. Eat it is so crunchy. My neighbour always give me eat one everyday.

They tell me its eatable wax. i trust them coz they are older than me, so sure is wiser.

but maggie mee, if you put MSG, sure die from cancer. My teacher always tell me that MSG is dangerous. cause loss of hair.

So means if u pour water out, u still die from MSG.

bro, you are very smart la.

my teacher also say similar way, but i forgot exactly what she said. So what you say is most likely what my teacher say.
Since my teacher is always right, and you say is most like what my teacher say is right, so means you are also most likely right, just like my teacher say is right.

right?

So sked, don't eat maggi mee la.

It's like those people going to KFC, order one fried chicken, but peel off the skin, say the skin not healthy.

Want to be so healthy, don't eat KFC LA !

stupid TS... if i receive such chainmail... i delete without reading at all

TS just copy pasta from email.
Not even original stuff and it's misleading.

rubbish, you know what kill you faster ? worrying about nonsense

so many people eat instant noodle and still ok
gov would ban instant noodle if its toxic and shiet
it is more money saving to ban than to save life of million who is toxic infected

u try ask doctor... see what he says

man you've just bumped this

By eating maggi mee you already gonna die faster, so why bother?

I've been doing that ever since; wash the noodles twice to get rid of the white/wax water.

Make sure the water is clear before adding the seasoning.

And I don't drink the gravy at all.

Then you should have bought plain noodles?

don't eat la.... so mafan
