The University of Tokya’s professor Masayuki Nakao has created the world’s smallest bowl of ramen…kinda.

A 1-micron wide bowl (the bowl was carved from silicon using a metal particale beam) was filled with the “noodles”.

To give you an idea of how big this 1-micron bowl, you could fit 100 hundred of these bowls of ramen in a human hair follicle.

The noodles themselves are 20-nanometers thick and are made of a soup of ethanol and catalyst to form carbon nanotubes.

I doubt they are as delicious as the real thing.
