The Cup of Noodles museum in Yokohama was well worth it (get there early if plan to go though, can get very busy).

If you’re in Kansai, you can take the Hankyuu Takarazuka line to Ikeda, near Momofuku Andos birthplace, where they have a noodle museum which not only has a noodle factory experience but also a recreation of his childhood home.
Maybe you meant to say Umeda Station (Osaka)?

#33Cup Noodles (and more generally instant noodles) is easily one of the most important inventions ever. It's cheap, it's nutritious, it stores well (and easily), it ships easily (read: cheaply), and it prepares simply and quickly. Most importantly, it's delicious. I know of no other food that checks all these boxes and then some.
Cheese, Hard Tack, Jerkey, Pickles, Kimche, Beer, Salt Pork, Rum, Instant Soup, Pemican, Wine, Dried Beans, Honey, Grain, Potatoes, Tons of Canned foods lets say peaches, regular pasta, Nut butter... yeah I can think of a ton of them, and everything I listed is much more nutritious than instant noodles which basically has carbs, salt, potassium lots of fat, some protein.

I didn't know that the Hankyuu Takarazuka line stretches across the Pacific Ocean! Maybe you meant to say Umeda Station (Osaka)?

#36Nissin cup noodles (Japan version with nice toppings) are the only thing I eat on airplanes, even if I am flying business.
