Abstract

See full text

Provided is a bundle of fresh noodles which become less-wavy, straight noodles when the instant noodles are cooked with hot water, while maintaining an existing manufacturing line as much as possible. The noodle strings are stacked on a conveyor such that adjacent noodle strings are in a non-parallel state and each noodle string bends to have a substantially spiral shape. The plurality of noodle strings are arranged to overlap one another and form a substantially flat bundle of noodle strings. Each of the noodle strings forming fresh noodles bends and repeatedly forms loops on the conveyor. The loops are arranged to be sequentially shifted in a direction opposite a conveyance direction of the conveyor.
