Nowadays, the noodle diet has become more and more popular among people of all countries. For example, the Japanese people have noodles as one of the staple foods. In Japan’s Takamatsu City, there are more than 800 pasta shops alone; Kagawa prefecture noodles consume four times the average Japanese consumption. So, how does the Chinese noodle diet pass to Japan? The noodle diet began in China in the Han Dynasty (206 BC-220 AD). Before the Han dynasty, the Chinese diet was based on grain-based foods. ancient
