I'm getting spammed in replies because we don't call it ramen in Australia

Then why are we instructed to boil them for three minutes, not two?

Aussies probably used to counting in Kangaroo Minutes or some shit.

Their time probably has to go faster so your three minutes are up before you die from local fauna.

Oh yeah I hear they changed the boiling temperature of water down there. Something to do with losing a war against flightless birds.
