Cup Noodle Is Selling Caffeinated Ramen
If you're bored with your morning coffee, here's a weird new option: The company that makes Cup Noodle just announced the debut of CAFFEINATED RAMEN.
Their target market isn't really the breakfast crowd. They're going after hungry gamers who stay up late playing video games online. They even put the word "Gaming" in the product name . . . "Gaming Cup Noodle".
There are two different flavors: A black pepper-and-garlic one, and a ginger-curry version.
They'll start selling them on September 18th. But sadly, you'll need a plane ticket to get that sweet ramen buzz. They're only selling them in Japan for now.
It's not clear how much caffeine they're packing, but supposedly enough to give you a nice big energy boost and keep you alert.

New Trend: Putting Tea Bags in Sprite
What's your gut instinct on this? Good or bad? The newest food trend on TikTok is to add tea bags to bottles of SPRITE.
You can use 7 Up too, or any lemon-lime soda. Basically, you're just making caffeinated iced tea with a citrusy twist built in.
You can use any tea. But the TikTok hack specifically suggests two bags of Lipton Black Tea.
You open a 20-ounce bottle of Sprite . . . drink a little bit to make room . . . add two tea bags . . . turn the bottle over . . . and let them steep in the fridge for 20 minutes. Then you squeeze some lemon juice in, and pour it over ice.
A restaurant in Malaysia posted a video recipe in July. But TikTok just latched onto it in the past couple weeks.
