How did this Native American invention become such a staple of Italian kitchens?
All you need is some eggs, water and flour.
And China is full on protein rich eggs.
Boiling dough in various shapes is pretty straightforward.
The method of squashing dough into strips and drying it for sea voyages was developed in the Mediterrean, when Tripoli was conquered by the Sicilians and Italian sea power grew after the crusades it became popular in Italy.

Adds flavour and a rich scent of lemon to the protein rich chinese eggs that are 100% natural.

>all actors are Japanese
Yes, I know they found some human remains in Britain with Asian morphological features, but there's a difference between acknowledging the presence of what may be East Asian traders and thus the commercial ties binding West and East and another is having the whole fucking Roman Empire portrayed as an extension of Japan.

It ain't cultural appropriation if said culture is white.

>It ain't cultural appropriation if it isn't just an excuse to use a whole culture as a costume without learning about it.

Seems legit.
noodles/pasta came from the Tarim Basin where Central Asian Indo-Europeans lived before being past east to China and then further west from China to the Mediterranean through the Silk Road. Ramen was originally called Laghman by Central Asians before becoming Laomian by Muslim Chinese Hui then Ramen adopted by the Japanese

The actors are Japanese because it was made in Japan ya dingus. I bet you think you're anti-SJW.

>Nomadshits who can't fucking farm invented pasta
Also.
>Lamian is a type of Chinese noodle. Lamian is made by twisting, stretching and folding the dough into strands, using the weight of the dough.[1] The length and thickness of the strands depends on the number of times the dough is folded.[1] This unique method of making noodles originated in China.[1] The Songshi Yangsheng Bu (simplified Chinese: 宋氏养生部; traditional Chinese: 宋氏養生部), which was written by Song Xu and dates back to 1504, has the earliest description of the method to make lamian.

What a worthless thing to get miffed about. The movie clearly isn't going for historical accuracy.
You made it ten seconds into that trailer didn't you?
>>1866707
Also Lamian is the name of the fucking historical region where it came from, not the noodle dish, faggot.
>In Central Asia the dish has thicker noodles. Lamian is known as läghmän (leghmen) (لەغمەن, лӓғмӓн)[3][4][5][6] or längmän (lengmen) (لەڭمەن, лӓңмӓн) in Uyghur and lag'mon (лaғмoн) in Uzbek, both derived from the Chinese word lamian. It was noted that words that begin with L are not native to Turkic so that läghmän is a loanword as stated by Uyghur linguist Abdlikim so it is of Chinese derivation and not originally Uyghur.[7][8][9][10]
>>1864961
it's probably not worth it to find western actors for a small japanese comedy film

Pasta noodle isn't really a Chinese invention. Shit just occurred everywhere wheat was produced and there were sophisticated civilizations with time to play with food. Romans had pasta dishes.
>>1867352
so different civilisations discovered noodles independently throughout history?
doesn't mean anything when the chinese discovered it first
>>1867368
China "inventing" it means x idea came from China. Gunpowder was invented in China, Noodles weren't. Chinks having the first noodle dishes doesnt automatically mean they influenced others. Doesn't mean opposite as well. There is simply no evidence for it. Only similarity being sophisticated wheat growing civilization + playing around with dough = Noodles.
>pasta
>Chinese invention

how the fuck did this myth even get spread so far? Are people really so dimwitted that they think boiled dough is an invention and are they so mystified by ancient chinks that they think they were the first to develop this shit?
>>1864961
anon the movie is literally "hot spring time machine"
it's a fucking comedy movie
>>1867388
I thought gunpowder was invented by the muslims.
