      My friend, none of this makes sense. Archeology says that people have similar eating and drinking habits in every geography they spread to. In other words, even before wheat or seeds were ground, some grained legumes were ground and there were already various bread and pasta-like food flavors. It has probably existed since the beginning of humans. There is no harm in using recently discovered places as references today. It is also normal that it was its founder who gave it its names, beautified it, and ensured its spread to society. However, this definitely could not have been discovered by a nation. We do not know how many thousands of years trade has existed.

    I think the reason why Italy never did noodles in soup is that, without adding alkaline, they become soggy and lose their al dente texture. The other cultures that does soup pasta, Japanese and Cantonese also like adding alkaline (kansui) so that they come out more firm. Places like Sichuan which historically didnt use alkaline also prefer thick sauce instead of soup. The other soup culture are mostly in SEA which all use rice instead of wheat.

      I am from Canton and I must say soup noodle is all about the soup, and noodle quality comes second. That's why in Canton you get to choose flower noodle, rice noodle or just soup itself with some protein and veggies that match the soup.

      Man. You know stuff has been around for a very long time if the word for alkaline water (kansui) is almost the same in three different regions (Mainland China, HK / S China, Japan) with very distinct histories!
      Not a coincidence (!):
      JP: Kansui
      Cantonese (HK / Canton province): Gaansui
      Mandarin: Jianshui
      Notably, the JP and Cantonese pronunciation sound more similar. Cantonese as a language, historically speaking, goes much further back in time than Mandarin. There are many words in the modern Japanese language that in Cantonese also sound similar, i.e. JP "borrowed" these from China, so they did not only adapt the written Kanji characters! As a Cantonese (and trilingual) speaker, this made picking up the JP language a bit easier.
      This is less so the case with the Mandarin language, which makes sense because it as a language only spread in China much later.
      The magical pairing of alkaline solution and noodles has been enjoyed by many generations and influence reaching far.

      In reality, there was already some kind of pasta in Italy more than 2000 years ago, much before any contact with China. Roman soldiers used to eat Lagana, which was a sheet shaped pasta not too far from today's lasagna. Also, in some Etruscan tombs there are graffiti representations of daily life, where women hand roll and stretch threads of dough of some kind.

      China is definitely a good country because of its culture, attractions, food and language, but the politics made everything different from what they were meant to be. Chinese people always act in a way to not show their political views but instead politics is everywhere because it came from the education we(I was born and raised in peking) received. Hating the western world and Japan(sometimes South Korea) is etched into most ppl's mind. So it's understandable for westerners to hate Chinese ppl for the latter showing their prejudice against the former. But yes some ppl wherever they are born and raised, tend to show prejudice against a different ethnic group which is a sad fact and cannot be changed ever. Just hope ppl could judge others as an independent human being, not as a person grew under a hostile political environment or of a different ethnic group.

      @@jacopohan6731 Firstly the amount of people that hate Japan is not as much as you think. Sure they may not like Japan, but they don't necessarily hate. Japan is one of the most visited tourist destination from China. Secondly, I understand people who hate, I mean there is a reason, I think you forgot what Japanese did, you should visit Nanjing museum. Also I think you need not worship western countries, to know why you just need to visit Beijing summer palace. That's all I am going to say. I understand todays people are not responsible for the horror, but the fact is people forget history. That's not good. I don't advocate violence, but one cannot forget the history!
      To give you the context, German kids are taught about what they did in WW2, but kids in Japan are not! history is being rewritten in Japan. Its not just China, but also Korea, SE Asia has been complaining about this to Japan for years and nothing changed. Secondly, Germany paid war reparations to allies and Poland. But Japan did not. Third and most importantly, Germany publically apologized and even chancellor willy Brandt, fell on his feet and apologized in Poland, you can look at the video on you tube, but Japan still does not admit to its war crimes.
      Secondly, this sentiment was there since Japanese war of aggression on China including in 2010s when west was in love with China, but at that time west did not care because they were making money in China and Chinese companies were not competitive. Now that China in many sectors are surpassing western counties, they are spilling anti China hate. So China's hate comes from historical wounds, Western hates is pure greed and money.
      I am not Chinese, but I am a history buff!!

      @@roro-v3z about the first part I agree, Chinese ppl's hate against Japan mostly come from Shouwa time when Japan was under imperialism monarchy, this part of history no Chinese people could ever forget. Yet in the 1980s our leading politicians came to Japan asking for support from them, to build up mechanics and vehicle industry. Japan lent us a help hand then, and even until now a majority of electronic parts used in electronic devices in China's market are still either invented or manufactured in Japan. This part of history of mutual benefits however is not widely acknowledged by Chinese ppl. I would presume that during your stay in China the side you witnessed is mainly from most modernized part of the country and from middle class people who have a better view of their environment or simply just doesn't care that much. On China's TikTok(it was developed by a Singaporean company and China's version and server is independent from universal version) there's a group of little pinkies(China's version of political correctness supporters) always spreading chauvinistic views and hates against the west, Japan and South Korea, and they gained quite an audience. Though as you put there are not that much Chinese people still holding prejudice against the west, in percentage true but in number, well, that's a lot. In the past half year 4 tourists from the US was wounded by ultranationalist(s) in Jilin, 2 Japanese pupils(there are schools built in China providing education solely for foreign children living there)attacked by 2 other individuals, in the case happened in Suzhou the pupil lived after medical treatment but a Chinese employee who tried to stop the murderer were badly wounded and lost her life after inappropriate treatment. In the case happened in Shenzhen recently though, the pupil didn't make it. Now it's far more than just hate.
      China's education won't emphasize that during the past thousands of years of China every time a new dynasty was founded a massacre would take place, most of the times started by their own kind, not to mention there's cultural revolution and the great famine before it. They are told to remember the incidents only fitted for political correctness instead of those which are equally tragic. I'm not saying that what imperialism Japan did to Chinese people was a lesser evil compared to the other things I mentioned above. It's just, hatred may not be solely their fault, still it's a sad fact we could not ever change.
      About the second part, it may seem that in some main industries China has surpassed the rest of the world, but it's like a similar version of USSR during the cold war when new findings and technologies merged from the earth like new born plants but could hardly benefit its people as much as expected. Using electric vehicle industry as an example, the industry is thriving greatly that it has already taken the largest share of electric car market all over the world. Yet the need for electric car is still not to be compared with traditional gas powered cars and over half of the sales of China's electric cars actually took place solely in China. Plus, the industry is unable to provide as many jobs for graduated students as compared to other traditional industries like education, internet, architecture, manufacture and housing, which, of the above 5 industries provide 57% jobs for newly graduated students in 2023. As for the reason that western enterprises chose to leave China's market...well, it's complicated, but in short, because of the policies and economic crisis happening in China these years. 2 or 3 days ago the gov has announced to cut interest rate...
      Well that was a lot to explain what I know. My thought, it's somehow acceptable to have westerners hating China for Chinese people holding similar prejudice against them, though it's not totally logical and not solely both parties' wrong thinking. Only thing I can do is get myself better educated and not to judge others easily by their appearance. Friendly people deserves an amicable treatment, compatriots or not.

      @@roro-v3z I missed the apologizing part when first read your comment. About Germany former chancellor Brandt, most Chinese people learnt it already from either textbook or propaganda. True that most history textbooks used in Japan was rewritten, when WWII was concerned. Still there are textbooks telling the true history, of the crimes committed by Japanese army back then. But true only a minority of children were told about that history in Japan, a treacherous political intervention that is.
      Summer palace though, I think you've been mistaken it for Old Summer Palace or Yuanmingyuan Imperial Garden. The history went like this. During the second opium war in 1860 an emissary delegation of 39 people sent by British French army were held in prison and tortured, 20 died only because they refused to kneel before the Qing emperor during the audience. This may partially because of the crime those imperialism army did back then so the court held grudge on the delegation team. The French general first proposed to burn the forbidden city as vengeance but James Bruce suggested that they burn the Imperial Garden, which was located out of the city, to avoid too much casualties. They posted an announcement on city walls to warn common folk to avoid the Garden in advance, but ppl knew better who were a greater evil back then. The Garden was truly burnt first by British and french army but later on local people living nearby and bandits also came to rob it for fortunes and to set fire on it. After Qing Dynasty fell, some warlords also took treasures and quarry materials from the Garden. During cultural revolution, the Old Summer Palace was once again badly sabotaged by its own people. Again, imperialism and colonialism are always to be blamed, which is a righteous thing to do, there's no doubt about it. But what most people forget is who did the most damage to the Old Summer Palace, that's a taboo to be mentioned in China.
      Plus, I'm not worshipping the western world. Since I live in Europe for nearly 4 yrs until now and I have already found some quite disappointing aspects of western society. Still I choose to stay here because in comparison it's a relatively better place for me to live. Fewer people would judge me because I took a gap year at university, or because I have long hair as a man, or because I have tattoos on me, I go to the bar very often, or I hold a different political view on the war. Life is definitely harder here, but there's more I can get.

      Italian pasta is said to come from the Greeks. But there is also historical record that the Greeks got it from the Arabs. That is where the historical evidence was broken. Perhaps the Arabs learned it from the Chinese and bought it from the Silk Road. But there is t any evidence of that so it’s purely speculative. So based on available evidence the Italians developed their noodle (pasta) based on Greek/Arab influence. But that doesn’t mean there is absolutely no connection between pasta and Chinese noodles. It’s just we can’t prove it.
