Mr. Noodle - New York Times

The news last Friday of the death of the ramen noodle guy surprised those of us who had never suspected that there was such an individual. It was easy to assume that instant noodle soup was a team invention, one of those depersonalized corporate miracles, like the Honda Civic, the Sony Walkman and Hello Kitty, that sprang from that ingenious consumer-product collective known as postwar Japan.

    Your assumptions dishonor the collective legacy of Doctor Edwin Civic, Baron Sonny Manwalk and Mr. Hiro Tamaguchi “Hello” Kitty.

    For shame.
