N Korea 'develops special noodle'

North Korean scientists have developed a new kind of noodle that delays feelings of hunger, a Japan-based pro-Pyongyang newspaper has reported.

The noodles were made from corn and soybeans, the Choson Shinbo said.

They left people feeling fuller longer and represented a technological breakthrough, the newspaper said.

North Korea is dependent on foreign food aid. Last month the UN warned that residents were experiencing their worst food shortages in a decade.

But the communist country remains reluctant to allow experts to fully assess the scale of the problem or give them adequate access to deliver aid.

Another bogus N. Korean crap in all likelihood.

By the way, what did they do with all those giant rabbits from Germany?

The noodle is made of cement.

I’m sure the Obama administration would license this technology. He’s already told us we cannot go on eating as many calories as we want because the “world” will hate us if we do. So this is the perfect solution — forced calorie reductions for all Americans, but you get to eat the noodle that makes you feel full.

All totalitarians think alike.

Last month the UN warned that residents were experiencing their worst food shortages in a decade.

However, they do have the smallest carbon footprint in the world.

George: I’ll tell you what. Why don’t we just get a couple of dishes and we’ll just share ‘em.

Kramer: Okay. What are you getting?

George: I’m gonna get a Chow Fung.

Kramer: What’s a Chow Fung?

George: It’s a broad noodle.

Kramer: What do you mean, a broad noodle?

George: It’s a big flat noodle.

Kramer: Well I don’t want a big flat noodle.

George: What kind of noodle do you want?

Kramer: Who says I want a noodle?

One problem. There's only one noodle machine in Korea and here's a photo of it:

Ahhh, the glories of Communism. There are those who would have us experience those “glories” here.

[antiRepublicrat]

Hey, that’s exactly the machine I have!

"Special Noodle" was my CB handle back in the '70's.

So they will feel full as they are starving?

[TigerLikesRooster]

Yes, let's name it ‘Obama Noodle.’

[TigerLikesRooster]

That's the idea.

Betcha you could sell that baby on NK-EBay for a goodly sum. You lucky devil.
