Why? He invented instant noodles:

His most famous product, Cup Noodle, was released in 1971.

Its taste and ease of preparation - adding hot water to dried noodles in a waterproof polystyrene container - have made it popular around the world.

Mr Ando said the inspiration for his product came when he saw people lining up to buy bowls of hot ramen noodle soup at a black market stall during the food shortages after World War II.


Instant noodles are cheap, tasty and fill you up. Thanks for the invention and rest in peace Momofuko-san.
