Abuse Your Noodle

P103
Heard an interesting report on NPR this morning about how instant ramen cups lead to a lot of horrible burns by tipping over easily, especially with children. The part I really wanted to note down for future writing reference was the reason ramen burns are so much worse than other soup or hot liquid burns. Apparently the noodles, which hold in the heat, stick to the skin, intensifying the burn.
