This week we took a trip to Yokohama to visit the Cup Noodles Museum! Yes, I mean these things:
The inventor of Cup Noodles was Japanese. He invented Cup Noodles during war times in Japan when people were poor and hot meals were hard to come by. He invented a way to dehydrate a standard Japanese bowl of ramen so that those poor people could have cheap, hot meals. (Spoiler: it involves boiling the noodles in hot oil...one of the reasons Cup Noodles aren’t very healthy for you).
We had lots of fun at the museum! They had a little theater that showed a cute little video about the history of Cup Noodles, and they even had translator devices that allowed us to hear the video in English so we could actually understand it. They had several kid-friendly exhibits. One of the most popular activities at the museum is where you can help make your very own custom Cup Noodles, so we had fun designing and filling a cup with the ingredients we wanted. Watch the video below to see all the fun stuff we did at the museum!
We love sharing our adventures with you!
Love,
Brittany and Christian
