Change The Mind of Instant Noodles: I want to design my own cup noodles

Nissin Cup Noodles with Shrimp By LG Phone

My breakfast By LG Phone

Today...

Today, I made a Nissin Cup Noodles with Shrimp for my breakfast. Since I woke up late, I just brought it to school and made it in the cafeteria. This one is the forth one I have tried in Nissin Cup Noodles in original series, and it is also the last one. Actually, I bought this with other flavor of Nissin Cup Noodles such as chicken flavor, beef flavor and Shrimp Picante style with I tried in the experiment together. However, I tried this one after other three since I don't like plain shrimp flavor instant noodles. You can find that this one is the first one which is plain shrimp flavor in my experiment.

This time I cooked it in microwave, but I think I poured too much boiled into the cup. So, the soup tastes a little slight. For the price, it costs only $.33. It's very cheap, but I think I will feel hungry very soon. For health, its amount of calories and fat may excess some other bag size of instant noodles. It contains some amount of cholesterol. Also, the content of iron excess the standard for daily value. For common absorption, we should not absorb more than 18% of iron for daily value.

Do you know...

As I mentioned in the previous blog about The Instant Ramen Museum in Osaka, Japan, I found more information and some pictures inside the museum.

On August 25, 1958, Momofuku Ando invented the world's first instant noodle product, "Chicken Ramen" after hours of research using common tools in a small shack which he had constructed in the backyard of his house in Ikeda. "The Momofuke Ando Instant Ramen Museum" conveys the importance of inventin and discovery through the history of instant noodles, which have become a new food culture.

There are some picture about the museum which I found from the online forum.

Here is Instant Noodles Tunnel. Various types of the major Nissin products over the years are displyed in a large volume. The display is in the shape of a half-tunnel, and the products soar up above your head. The develpment of instant noodles is expressed systemicallt through the history of the products.

This is the vending machine. As I mentioned before, people can make their own original cup noodles in the Handmade Chicken Ramen Hands-On Workshop in the museum. People first need to purchase a cup from the vending machine and then wash their hands.

Here just like the place people have buffet that there are some many food for people to choose. People can choose the soup flavor and the ingredients for their own cup noodles.
