Nearly one one every three pediatric admissions for burns is due to scalding from a hot bowl of noodles. This from a University of Chicago review of 790 children under 18 years of age. The data showed that 31% of the burns were due to instant noodles, that those with ramen burns compared with those due to other causes were slightly older, 5.4 yrs vs 3.8 years, that boys were more often burned than girls, that black children were more likely to be injured than those in other racial groups, 91% vs 75%, and that unsupervised children were more often burned, 37% to 21%. If you plan to serve instant noodles to your kids, check the temperature and supervise the meal.
