History & Origin of Cup Noodles
It was in 1958, when the world’s first instant noodle, Chicken Ramen, was made in a research shed in Ikeda by Taiwanese-Japanese inventor Momofuku Ando. Then in 1971, he invented Cup Noodles, the world’s first ramen served in a cup.
Later in 2005, Momofuku invented Space Ramen that can be quickly eaten in space! You can get to learn all this and more about the history of cup noodles in this interactive museum.
