Anyone who has ever had a hostel life will know how integral a part of it is noodles. Those days would just not be the same if we hadn’t found noodles as our saviour. It has saved us from many a midnight cravings and from starving on those days when the canteen food looked like mush. Point is, noodles is bae.
But how much of bae is too much bae? For someone in Georgia, USA, almost ₹70 lakh worth of noodles sounded like the right amount of bae.
Georgia has found themselves with a peculiar crime in their hands after noodles worth more than ₹68 lakh was stolen from a large truck parked outside a store.
A local sheriff's office says that nearly $100,000 worth of Ramen Noodles was stolen #fox5atl https://t.co/ytLL14XTi1

The owner of the 53-foot trailer reported the theft to the police saying that he had left it parked there in Fayette County, Georgia between July 25 and August 1, loaded with $98,000 (₹68,69,310) worth of noodles.
This curious incident has left the internet perplexed on multiple counts. What was he doing with that much noodles in the first place? Exactly how much noodles is ₹70 lakh worth of noodles? And more:

4. That’s a loooot of noodles.
I’ve already done the math. That’s 337,931 packs of Ramen, if the said stolen ramen is of Manchuran variety purchased at Target. Which is enough lunch and dinner for 1.26 years.
You’re welcome. https://t.co/DbW9HvlVso

9. The thought of an all noodle diet does make me a bit sick tbh.
Apparently it was on a truck that was left unattended. But holy hell, his backseat must have been FULLY of it.
But, could anyone eat that much ramen? You would get so sick of it. And it's not like you could sell it for much of a profit…

10. FYI, it isn’t. But when has that stopped anyone?
Is marijuana legal in Georgia? Because this would be one crazy case of the munchies. https://t.co/dMDzYRpddc

I wonder what the thief will do with all that noodles. Throw a noodle party? Swim in a pool full of noodles? Find a cure for world hunger? Or just have noodles for breakfast, lunch and dinner to gradually become the Noodle Man?! Exciting prospects for this guy.
