六、 选做题
What do a student in China, an office worker in the UK and an astronaut in space all have in common? They all eat instant noodles(方便面). And they're not alone—over 100 billion servings of instant noodles are sold around the world each year, making them one of the world's most successful industrial foods. But how did this happen?
Put simply, they're cheap to produce and cheap to buy, which was exactly what their creator expected. Momofuku Ando, a Japanese businessman, spent a year improving the recipe just after the Second World War. He wanted to make something similar to traditional Japanese ramen noodles(拉面). He used the wheat flour(面粉) donated to Japan by the US government. His creation was quickly popular, playing an important role in Japan's economic rise after the war.
But Japanese people are not alone in their devotion to instant noodles. According to the World Instant Noodles Association, the sales of instant noodles in China, Indonesia, Vietnam and India—in that order—were all bigger than Japan in 2021. Instant noodles' popularity abroad simply depends on how easy they are to adapt to local tastes. In Thailand, for example, you can get green curry flavour, while in Mexico the noodles are garnished(装饰) with lime and salsa. And it seems that buyers have grown to expect new creation. Nissin, the food company set up by Ando, created over 300 products yearly, just in Japan, according to employee Kasura Suzuki.
Different from those who love instant noodles, some people do not like the noodles very much. Their rise in popularity has come at an environmental cost—they're made with palm oil. As a result, more trees are cut down. However, more than 60 years after their invention, instant noodles have become the popular food for anyone short on money, time, or even a kitchen.
