Well, "own" here is relative; basking in ramen could be as routine as taking a hot shower. It does, as you say, bring amusement, alongside the many proclaimed benefits. If you think it's disgusting, it's an opinion which I can do nothing about but respect. In any case, I think it's worth trying out something for oneself to better validate one-sided opinions. First-hand experience is, sadly, something many of us lack, that's why I want to count on those living in Japan to exploit those opportunities.
