Comment on Oodles of noodles: how a global favourite became an economic red flag
MsPenguinette@lemmy.world 8 months ago
If the entire (cooked) length of instant noodles sold around the world in a single year were laid out in a line, the resulting 6.2bn kilometre giga-noodle would stretch well beyond Pluto and into the depths of space. It is a fact as miserable as it is marvellous.
This is the most insane statistic I’ve ever heard

I’d like to see the math here. Do we even produce enough wheat (and drinking water) to produce a noodle that reaches all the way to Pluto?
