Ramen: Safe for Dogs and Cats?

Ramen should not be offered to dogs. Instant seasoning and restaurant broth are usually very salty and commonly contain onion or garlic, while the noodles add calories without useful canine nutrition.

Ramen is not suitable for cats because the broth and seasoning are high in salt and commonly contain onion, garlic, or chives. Plain noodles are still carbohydrate-heavy and nutritionally unnecessary.
