Teen eats almost nothing but Ramen noodles for 13 years! Has the health of an 80 year old...

"She became hooked 13 years ago and now, at age 18, claims to eat nothing but noodle packets, which her mother buys for her by the dozen."

Dr's say she has some sort of selective eating disorder. One of things that gets me is her mother goes out of her way (and has for 13 years) to buy as much of the stuff as she can.

How long is this kid going to live on a diet of mainly salt? If that was my kid I think I would have put a stop to it a long time ago.

I know kids can have food aversions, my oldest son wanted nothing but hot dogs and chicken wings for the longest and had aversions to a lot of foods but I found other things he would eat so he could have as much as a balanced diet as possible.

To think, this kid is very likely to die at a very young age due to this...death by Ramen.
