"The consensus by most learned Italians is that Marco Polo brought the idea of noodles to Italy from China. Some claim convergent evolution," a second person said.

"Not sure if there is any historians arguing for Italians brought noodles to China. The debate seems to be usually about whether noodle went from China to Italy, or Italians had it on their own or from other Mediterranean countries," another added.

The widely held belief is that China is where noodles were first invented, but not all are sure of their origin. Irrespective of their birthplace, we can definitely say, "Thank God for noodles!" It has a special place in all of our hearts.
