    There are sugar free tic tacos that are 98% sugar since the rule for sugar free is less than x grams per serving and they set that so low.

    I tried this, for some reason the water wasn't hot when I took it out of the freezer. Waiting for further instructions.

    You have to reheat it obviously. But it saves you time because it’s already boiled.

    Can I just take out a few chunks of boiling water and put the leftover back into the freezer, or do I have to use the whole bag once I take it out? Like when I want instant noodles, I won't need the whole bag.

    In india, we boil our water, so he must be boiling the water to purify it. Then keep it in the fridge so when he uses it, it's safe to consume may be ?.

    I realize this is a joke post, but before hurricanes my freezer looks like this. In a power outage the frozen bags act like freezer packs for the freezer and fridge so your food has a chance of not spoiling before electricity is restored.

    Funny caption someone added but this is to make the refrigerator use less electricity when it’s empty. The food being cool helps maintain the temperature. If it’s empty the pump will run longer and more often. Never keep a refrigerator empty.

    He was probably thinking "I'm sick of measuring 8 cups of water and 1/4 cup of salt every time I make pasta...i should just set up a bunch of them and that will save me time later for when I'm making my daily buttered noodles!"

    My step-dad would never do something this insane, but he's the kind of person who actually measures out the amount of water the box of pasta recommends pretty precisely. He can't be the only one, so I gotta assume its something like that.

    Plus you have to bring the water to boil before adding pasta anyway! Wtf lol

    Can you freeze pasta? I think the wording is just misleading and that feels like the intent.

    Doesn't it make it easier to boil if the water has already been boiled before? I know it being g ice will make it take longer, but I swear I remember water that has been boiled will get hotter quicker and boil faster than water that hasn't been boiled. Please correct me if I'm wrong as I feel as if I didn't learn anything from graduating highschool

    No, water takes the same amount of time to boil if starting from the same temperature assuming same impurities/salts. Water doesn’t get better at boiling with practice.
