Instant noodles are one of the world’s most popular foods. It’s been estimated that about 95 billion servings of instant noodles are eaten around the world each year. That’s a heck of a lot of noodles but if you’ve ever had instant noodles, its popularity really shouldn’t come as much as a surprise.

And unfortunately, it gets far worse than that…
