Instant Noodles

Whilst eating my instant noodles which has become a chronic habit (count 1 year and 7 months, every other day)...and surfing...here's what i found! pretty interesting facts of my humble, simple and economic, quick and easy dinnner.

The idea of instant noodles can be traced back to the Chinese Qing Dynasty, when yimian noodles were deep-fried to allow them to be stored for long periods and then prepared quickly. However, modern instant noodles were invented in by, the founder of Nissin, one of the biggest manufacturers of instant noodles today. Their noodles were boiled with flavouring, deep-fried with palm oil to remove moisture, and dried into a noodle cake.

According to a Japanese poll in the year 2000, instant noodles were the most important Japanese invention of the century. Karaoke came second, with the compact disc only coming in fifth!!!

so much for dinner tonite.
