How to Eat Noodles
Here in Japan, slurping when eating noodles is entirely fine. Many foreigners especially from United States find this puzzling since in their country, it is rude to slurp when eating. Why do Japanese people do this? Slurping is said to make the food tastier and one can also enjoy the aroma of the food.
Try slurping your noodles even just once while here in Japan!
