A friend from school would bringnthe uncooked noodles innher lunch and eat them crispy. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-do-you-call-this-2#post-1192018 Sat, 02 Nov 2013 05:39:37 +0000 StrawberryBee 1192018@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Ha, we called it curly noodles growing up, too! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-do-you-call-this-2#post-1192015 Sat, 02 Nov 2013 05:23:17 +0000 BananaPancakes 1192015@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I called them oodles of noodles growing up, and ramen noodles now. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-do-you-call-this-2#post-1192012 Sat, 02 Nov 2013 05:17:47 +0000 delight 1192012@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@MrsB2012: totally Mr. noodles for me too!

Just like Ichiban (which translates literally to "Number One" or "The best"). Seems to be a bit of a theme with the Ramen brand naming! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-do-you-call-this-2#post-1191986 Sat, 02 Nov 2013 02:11:45 +0000 Boogs 1191986@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Top Ramen.
