So, what might you have eaten for lunch? How about during college? Or late-night coding sessions? I still eat Ramen noodles!

Momofuku Ando ring a bell? Didn’t with me either. How about “Ramen Noodles?”

At the age of 96, Momofuku died this past Friday (6 Jan 07). And to think, the day before he had Chicken Ramen for lunch with Nissin employees!

So, next time you grab that 3-minute meal while you are waiting for a compile or contemplating that next great solution, say a short prayer of thanks to Momofuku and send best wishes to his family.
