Noodle Love

On January 6th, 2007, Momofuku Ando, beloved creator of Cup Noodles and other delicious ramen concoctions, died of a heart attack at age 96 in Japan.

This is old news, but I happen to be having a chicken Cup Noodles for lunch today so I was reminded to pay homage to this great man.

Who would have thought that hydrogenized noodles in a waterproof polystyrene container could bring so much joy to post WW2 families and poor college students (me) everywhere.
