ramen

Unless it's spaghetti casserole. And then it really doesn't exfoliate well at all. Plus it doesn't taste good.

Also, dried spaghetti doesn't come in square or rectangular cakes..... Or... it *shouldn't*, anyhow.

Sure beats dried spaghetti. Too rough.

I wonder if bouillon has exfoliating properties... ;-)

I first read the "soup" below as "soap" and got confused, imagining uselessness scrubbing away with blocks of dried fried noodles.

Also, a tasty and ridiculously inexpensive soup.

Ramen (singular raman) are strangers from another species who are capable of communication and peaceful coexistence with humanity, even if they do not pursue the latter. We are able to exchange ideas with "ramen", but would have little or no common ground with them, at least not initially.
