Statement

A night of lying is equal to a year of staying.

A good interior design must harmonize between eating and sleeping. It’s a solution to any kind of difficulty as there is a saying Better dense wood than good varnish. The main ingredient, instant noodles is desired to create a long happy dream. It’s a substantial dream or a dream of substantiality.

Statement from LIMDIM catalogue, 2009.

Where I live, people often say:

instant noodle thinking

instant noodle culture

... instant noodle.

Anything to fill in the gap.

I can have "instant noodle happiness" when I am alone (there was a time when the only food I craved for was instant noodle, on its own, without meat or vegetable toppings, and I found it really delicious).

But what would I have become if I had an instant noodle family?
