raaandom question...

who decided to make dough into long sticks and cook them?
in other words,
why is there noodles?
is it because mankind got tired of stuffing food into their mouths by the spoonful...so out of boredom they made noodles/paste/ramen so eating can be more interesting....
because the sound of slurping seems more exciting than nom-ing.
.
then eating noodles with spoons seemed ridiculous...
and hence the invention of chopsticks.
.
i....wonder.
.
but europeans don't slurp their noodles,
they twirl them into balls with their forks before engulfing the yummy elongated flour...
so what difference does spaghetti has, compared to macaroni and other kinds of dough-made food?
you know...since they don't slurp them like the japanese...
why do you make noodles if you're not planning to slurp them?!
(i'm serious.)
.
but i still think that the japanese can be a bit too enthusiastic about the loud noodle-slurping thingy...
they're too loud.
then again, japanese are usually extremist anyway...
i think they're motto should be: go big, or go home.
be the best/most outrageous, or not do it at all....
which i kind of agree, to a certain extend..
because if you're passionate about something, you might as well excel in it,
or there would be no point of your participation in it, no?
so........slurp lo....slurp loud loud lo.
.
the chinese have mee suah,
where we're encourage to slurp as lonnng as we liked, with the hope of not breaking the strand(s) of noodle(s),
to signify longevity.
.
if mee suah=long life,
then doesn't eating mee suah= eating your long life?
so....doesn't that make our lives......shortened?
......hmm.

i can't believe i'd thought about such things earlier in the morning, while gobbling up my bowl of instant noodles,
when i should be concentrating my mind on thermodynamics...(test this coming friday +_+)

random random statement:
1) cucumber+lime juice= mind-boggling....
it tastes so wrong, so weird in so many aspects, it messes up my palate.....but strangely i still drink it whenever mum bought it...

2) has anyone tried the Chicken Parmigiani from the Bumbledee western food stall(anjung budi)?
it's awesome.
just saying. XP
