Good attempt.,

This review is from: Brother, Can You Spare a Dime? How to Feed Yourself for About $5 a Week (Paperback)
This book has a lot of ramen recipes. Some are exotic and interesting, but there are a few problems. There are foods that college students wouldnt touch, like goat cheese. The foods are not priced properly. Avacados for 50 cents? I live in california and they're not even that cheap. Also the recipes calls for a few ingredients that are not really used often like oyster sauce and curry.
