How did Ramen Noodle become popular?

               Where in the world did Ramen come from?



   After World War two , Japan had a shortage of food. The United States gave Japan wheat flour to make bread. I man named Momofuku Ando decided why not make noodles instead of bread? That is their traditional food. So he tried to figure out how he could make noodles that would preserve for a long period of time and not spoil. Momofuku discoverer his creation when his wife was cooking dinner one night. He decided to boil the noodles in a hot pan of tempura oil which dehydrated the noodles. Then he put them in hot water to recook the noodles. Momofuku idea worked so he introduced Chikin Ramen to Japanese consumers. It was first marketed in August 1958 by Ando's company Nissin.  So next time you cook a late night snack of Ramen thank Ando.
