  sure there are artificial flavourings and edible chemicals stuff lah..
  
  but one thing that is surely true... dont eat too much cup noodles esp if they are on foam cups..paper still ok
  
  if have to eat, pour out into a proper bowl.
  
  U are lining ur stomach with a layer that came off from the heating of the noodle while in the cup.
  
  anyway up to individual to believe,..
  
  too much of anything is always no good anyway.

  heard that there is this layer of wax on the noodles. the wax is used to prevent the noodles from sticking together during the cooking stages. otherwise, lots of oil needs to be used. think this wax thingy is the stuff that causes cancer. cos heard they take a week to be fully digested. So, no more den a packet of instant noodles a week. Duno true anot, but dun quote me. I choose to believe.
