Momofuku Ando's birthday
« on: March 05, 2015, 09:29:22 AM »
Google Doodles is telling us today is the 105th birthday of the inventor of instant noodles and cup noodles.
He actually died in 2007.

Just thought you should know...     8)

For the modern man who lives in the city, riding a bike might be one of the only ways to escape the humdrum monotony. To take off and ride. To be both at one with nature and one with the bike. To feel masculine. Adam Piggott

I thought "Rosie is into birthdays- this is right up his alley"!  AND he has probably had the odd cup of instant noodles on the train.

Actually I'm not into instant noodles so I don't take them to work
And as he is not a member of OzSTOC so I didn't wish him a Happy Birthday this morning :thumbsup

Not overly keen on noodles, I'm waiting for someone to invent instant steak!

I know what would help a lot with that...

It could result in some strange outcomes though...
