    Gruel powders my face all by itself.
    It’s beautifully, heathy for bady.

    No need for cosmetic surgery!

    Actually, that should be noodle made from RICE flour. (i.e. Pho, but the flat kind) Blame the Chinese for simplifying the characters. It used to be that the character for “noodle”, or “mien”, is separate from “face” (which is either lien or mien). With the simplification, it’s the same character. Eeek.
