Interesting that there is absolutely no link to the information source. Then again, what can you expect of this propaganda machine?

The story is pretty much the same as the press release.      Yawn 

 

But I did find this. It's old hat

Yeah quite a broad spectrum of items there.  As I recall, Ando Momofuku wanted to promote instant noodles as a solution to world hunger, which I think is quite a noble cause.  Whether the other items on the list have the same utility, I don't know...
