As any starving college student will tell you... Cup Noodles can be a real lifesaver! When I lived in Philadelphia in the mid-90's... I barely had two pennies to rub together... one of the big things I ate was CN... by the case!

Were it not for Ando-san and his dream... I'd probably of starved to death!

Tonight... I will dine on a CN in his honor... THANK YOU, SIR! :asian:

Your Brother in the arts,
