Instant noodles appear to have originated in Japan in the 1950s and, today, are produced in over 80 countries worldwide. Instant noodles are dried or precooked noodles fused with oil and often sold with a packet of flavoring. Dried noodles are usually eaten after being cooked or soaked in boiling water for 2 to 5 minutes, while precooked noodles can be reheated or eaten straight from the packet. Instant noodles were invented by Momofuku Ando of Nissin Foods, Japan. Momofuku Ando was born in southwestern Taiwan when the island was under Japanese colonial rule in Japan on August 25, 1958, under the brand name Chikin Ramen. In 1971, Nissin introduced the Cup Noodles, instant noodles in a waterproof polystyrene cup, to which boiling water could be added to cook the noodles. A further innovation added dried vegetables to the cup, creating a complete instant soup dish. According to a Japanese poll in the year 2000, instant noodles were the most important Japanese invention of the century. As of 2008, approximately 94 billion servings of instant noodles are eaten worldwide every year. China consumes 45 billion packages of instant noodles per year - 48% of world consumption - Indonesia, 14 billion; Japan, 5.1 billion. Per capita, South Koreans consume the greatest amount of instant noodles, 69 packages per year.

Instant noodles have become a popular food in many parts of the world, undergoing changes in flavor to fit local tastes. Instant noodles are made from wheat flour, starch, water, salt or kan sui (an alkaline salt mixture of sodium carbonate, potassium carbonate, and sodium phosphate), and other ingredients that improve the texture and flavor of noodles.
