Japanese Udon noodles VS the world's longest parasite
“To challenge to Guinness Book Record and to gain worldwide acclaim, six Kagawa students spent three hours to create this 60 meter long udon noodle” shown on the right. Oddly, the world’s longest udon noodle looks a lot like and is the same length as the world’s longest parasite which can be seen at the Meguro Museum of Parasitology in southern Tokyo.
For more about the 60 meter round worm, refer to my drinking buddy, Captain Japan, and his report: Museum Tour: The Meguro Museum of Parasitology.
