This happened to me over the weekend when I was craving pizza. When the delivery arrived and I answered the door, I was wearing my home clothes. I mean what else do we wear these days if we're not going out?

These were pajama bottoms and my favorite Shin Ramyeon t-shirt. I had not consciously realized I was wearing the shirt but did when the delivery guy said he ate the noodles. It made me wonder just how popular these noodles really are.

You'll be pleased to know that I didn't throw the pizza in the trash like it appears in the cartoon (what a terrible waste of food that would have been). But I did indulge in Shin Ramyeon for dinner. There's nothing a bowl of it cannot cure.

Shin Ramyeon is an instant noodle brand produced by the Korean food giant Nongshim. It is exported to over 100 countries and is the bestselling brand of its kind in Korea.

I was really in awe of the delivery man. He was going from house to house delivering pizza in these really strange times. I told him to stay safe, be careful and wash his hands.

This also goes to all key workers who are out there daily working to make everything run as well as it can be in these unpredictable times.

So everyone, stay safe and eat pizza and Shin Raymeon to your heart's content, but wash your hands before you do.
