    RIP Noodle Man

    Inventor of Instant Noodles Dies

    I owe many a non-hungry day to this man, be it on a backpacking trip or an all-nighter spent studying for physics or calculus.

    Instant Noodles + Hot Water + leftovers(chicken, pork, or beef in the fridge and some vegetables) = Quick & easy meal.

    Thank you, Mr. Ando.
    Defend mediocrity... because excelence is just too hard to achieve. :p

    One of the sister companies of the group I work for is the Sole UK agent for NISSIN NOODLES.

    They are a sponsor of Super Aguri did you know:

    My boss is organising some paddock passes for the British GP 07 owing to the relationship

    RIP Mr.Ando

    Certainly a brilliant man for inventing a way to quickly feed the hungry and then convincing the Americans that this is a proper way for humans to eat.

    Ripity-rip, Mr. Ando, we never knew thee.

    On a side note - Chairman of his company until the age of 95?! In my part of the world, we would have buried him at age 90, dead or alive. Oh well, cultural differences. :
