Instant noodles were invented by Momofuku Ando of Nissin Foods Company in Japan. This invention made Nissin a star company in the food industry. There are many interesting stories among them. In 1959, Momofuku Ando ran his own small food workshop. He is a person with active thinking and uneasy with the status quo. He is always thinking about how to make his business better and bigger. Ando takes the tram every day, and he often sees many people queuing up in front of restaurants next to the station, waiting to eat hot noodles. One day, he suddenly had an idea: If he could produce a kind of noodles that can be eaten with just boiling water, it is estimated that home travelers would be willing to buy it in large quantities. Therefore, he resolutely determined the invention project of developing "instant noodles". Momofuku Ando immediately started experimenting with inventions. He bought a noodle rolling machine and started innovating instant noodles under everyone's suspicion. In order to achieve "convenience and simplicity", he thought of "frying", so that the noodles can be fried quickly and stored easily. Noodles will naturally have many pores after being fried. These pores absorb water when soaked in hot water, which can make instant noodles soft quickly and make the fried noodles taste better. During this period, he also invented a way to add seasonings to make his instant noodles delicious and delicious. After three years of painstaking research, Momofuku Ando finally successfully developed "chicken instant noodles". In 1962, Momofuku Ando's Nissin Company obtained the patent for instant noodles manufacturing technology, and instant noodles began to enter the market. Research and development of instant noodles began in 1959, and they entered the Japanese market in 1962. In 1971, bowl noodles were launched in Japan. By around 1980, instant noodles entered the Chinese market and are now sold all over the world.
