About
Grandpa loved to tell stories from his past. Whether it was about the silliness he and his buddies got into in high school, or the early days of him learning how to farm, he'd always start it out with "back in my day." We'd tease him for it, but we thoroughly enjoyed it, because he was so good at storytelling and keeping it interesting. He also loved to eat noodles. So, naturally, we had to name Back-In-My-Day Noodles after him. This simple, savory bowl of bouncy noodles is a perfectly comforting main that's ideal to enjoy while reminiscing about the good ol' days. These take just about as long to make as it took for him to get from beginning to end of his narrative (which wasn't too long, but just long enough), and we love that little nod these Back-In-My-Noodles bring to him. Good food and good stories go hand-in-hand, it's a tale as old as time!
