noodle

Description

A noodle is a boil-and-rescue carbohydrate artwork that only reveals its value when plunged into hot water. Accompanied by the cultural ritual of slurping, it fills the stomach in an instant like an edible first-aid kit. Yet, left unattended, it abandons its own character and degrades into a sticky mass of regret. Tempting us with cheapness and convenience, it is in fact a time bomb demanding precise negotiation with the clock. Ultimately, its worth is determined by the popularity of its sauce or broth, a fluid and fickle existence.
