Recently I learned about two loves of @old-guy-photos: popcorn and Ramen noodles. Now @marxrab loves popcorn! I could eat popcorn in my sleep I love it so much...Ramen noodles however...lets just say my philosophy is...
Friends Don't Let Friends Eat Ramen Noodles
When Marx the rabbit learned her dear friend was addicted to Ramen noodles like a college kid I knew he needed serious help. When there are so many delicious foods in the world, Ramen just won't make the cut in this Rab's book. The rabbit sprung into action to feed one addiction to save her friend from another.
@old-guy-photos is addicted to popcorn! He told me so right here. I decided to help my friend by popping up as much popcorn as possible to lure him into the diner. Sure enough old-guy-photos comes in and says "Something sure smells good!"
"Come over here my friend! I have a special area for you set up so you can pig out on all the popcorn you can eat!"
As old-guy-photos started munching on a humongous tub of popcorn he failed to notice it was a trap. BAM!! A cage came down from the ceiling trapping him and his popcorn inside. So busy with his buttery, salty goodness he didn't even notice the cage.
Onto phase two
@marxrab ran down the street to old-guy-photos home in Steemit City to rescue him from his Ramen addiction. As the rabbit entered his house and headed towards the kitchen she saw Ramen noodles everywhere!!! My goodness his addiction is bad!
Ramen All Over The Kitchen!!!
A Bank Vault In The Basement Full of Ramen!!!
It took hours to steal...I mean intervene and rescue my friend from horrible Ramen noodles. I replaced every pack with delicious foods I cooked in my diner from scratch. His favorite is Chinese food so I made him lots of Chinese dishes (sesame chicken, dumplings, egg rolls, fortune cookies, etc.)
As I made my way back to the diner with hundreds of packs of Ramen noodles I hoped my friend wouldn't freak out too much and would enjoy my replacement food. As I entered the diner @old-guy-photos was sleeping peacefully in his cage, his popcorn all eaten and belly bursting with food. I quietly removed the cage and let him sleep. In the morning he woke up looking like he had a hangover.
"What happened last night? I ate so much popcorn!" he said while rubbing his belly with one hand and his face with the other.
I gave him a cup of coffee and called him a taxi to take him back home. Hopefully he'll enjoy all those wonderful meals I left him! Now what am I to do with all these packs of Ramen noodles!! Ewww....guess the garbage collector will have their work cut out for them.
Thanks @old-guy-photos for being such a fun steemer to interact with. Hope you enjoyed my little story and all that popcorn! And for those readers who don't know him go check out his work! He's got some great writing and photography skills.

LOL well this is just fabulous!
First, I must say the trap worked splendidly! I love popcorn and I went right for it. I ate way too much, but I always do.
Oh yes Chinese food is by far my favorite! With all the variety, I can eat it every day of the week. You did such wonderful Chinese dishes, I couldn't believe it. Just like being at my favorite buffet! YUM!!!
So is it the pasta part that you are against or the flavor? I must admit, I prefer the Oriental flavor over the others! (Imagine that LOL) Plus melting a few slices of pepper jack in them is divine.... Oh look at me, still trying to convince my friend @marxrab to try Ramen dishes. How silly of me.
I love and truly appreciate all the time and effort spent in cooking those lovely Chinese offerings! I am thankful for friends that care enough to do an "intervention" on my behalf!
Oh and I may have forgotten to mention that I like to go trash picking ;)
It is so nice meeting cool Steemers like you @marxrab. You are the best in my book!

I'm so glad you saw it! I knew you hadn't been around much. This was my favorite story I've written so far. The thing I didn't like was the flavoring. The noodles I didn't mind much. Maybe if I could make homemade I might like it. Maybe that'll be a future recipe I'll seek. And trash picking? lol. I think you need to tell a story about that. :) Thanks for the resteem and I'm happy you enjoyed my silliness.

This is the best steemit diner you've done so far. I tend to love things that start with p and end with orn. Old-guy-photos is awesome. Also I'm not sure if you're aware, but ramen noodles are not unhealthy unless they are the instant kind that we use here in the states. In Japan there are plenty of ramen shops that don't use instant noodles and those aren't bad for you.

This is my favorite one too! I think I'm getting into a good creative groove with them now. I was talking about the instant kind. lol. I made a post a while back complaining about the instant kind and old-guy-photos sent me a photo of his instant Ramen collection. That's what inspired this story.

Corn is rich in fiber, vitamins and minerals that play an important role in the digestive system. And especially the fibers that regulate the intestinal movement and avoid inconvenience type constipation. They also reduce abdominal inflammation.
Contrary to the received idea No. 1 concerning them, popcorn are not poor from a nutritional point! The natural fibers of popcorn (finally corn) cleanse the blood vessels and arteries and thus reduce excess lipids and improve blood circulation. Popcorn therefore has a strong impact on the entire cardiovascular system: they reduce cardiovascular disease, arteriosclerosis, stroke as well as heart attacks.

Had a good laugh with this post. Very creative. Even more entertaining was running into this post and seeing it's on an old social media friend. Oh and yea, instant 🍜 noodles is horrible for the digestive system, since they can't be broken down. Bad, bad Paul! 👎 😜
