The Japanese inventor of instant noodles, a snack[小吃] that has sold billions of servings worldwide since its launch[投放市场], died at the age of 96, according to an official at Nissin Food Products Co., the company he founded.
Born in Taiwan in 1910 while it was under Japanese occupation[占有], Momofuku Ando ran clothing and other companies in Taipei and Osaka early in his career. He was inspired to develop the world’s first instant noodle product after coming across a long line of people waiting to buy fresh “ramen”noodles from a black market[黑市] stall[货摊] during the food shortages after World War II, Japanese media said.
After his Chicken Ramen product became hugely popular in 1958, despite a luxury[奢华的] price tag of 35 yen, he went on to bring out the Cup Noodle in 1971.Providing the instant noodles in a waterproof styrofoam[泡沫聚苯乙烯] container that could be used to cook them using just hot water proved a stroke of marketing genius that made the product a hit with time-pressed people around the world.
Ando remained in the public eye until recently ?appearing on television in 2005 to promote a version of the Cup Noodle adapted[适合] for astronauts[宇航员] to eat aboard the Space Shuttle[航天飞船] Discovery. Often seen devouring[吞食] servings of the dish he invented, Ando opened a museum devoted to instant noodles in Osaka in 1999.
方便面自面世以来全球销量已达数十亿个。据日清食品株式会社的一名高层官员表示，方便面的日本发明者同时也是该公司的创建人近日与世长辞，享年96岁。
安藤百福1910年出生于台湾，当时台湾正被日本占领。在他的事业早期，安藤百福在台北与日本大阪开设服装和其它公司。据日本传媒报道，在二战后的粮食短缺时期，安藤百福碰见在黑市货摊前等着购买新鲜拉面的人龙，顿时灵机一动，创造出世界上最早的方便面产品。
1958年继其“鸡肉拉面”在市场上大受欢迎后，尽管产品价格昂贵—每个标价35日元，但在1971年他继续推出“方便碗面”—把方便面放在防水泡沫盒里，只需热开水便可煮食。这一发明显露了这位营销天才的睿智，该产品风靡一时，受到全世界时间紧迫的人们青睐。
直到最近，安藤百福仍是公众的焦点—2005年他在电视上为新型“方便碗面”做宣传，经过改良，该“方便碗面”适合宇航员在“发现号”航天飞船上食用。公众经常可见安藤百福狼吞虎咽地品尝着自己的新发明。他于1999年在大阪建立了一个方便面博物馆。
