Talk about brain food, now you can enjoy yourself a nice hot bowl of… 'brain' ramen?
Brought to you by a collaboration between Village Vanguard and Panda Hole (known together as Villepan), two stores in Japan that specialise in novelty items, Brain Ramen is the perfect zombie food for humans - without any humans being harmed.
These noodles, dubbed No-Men ('brain noodles'), are pink in colour and soaked in a 'brain broth' that supposedly tastes just like miso and salt, according to the makers.
What's more, because the product reportedly contains vitamin B1, there are extra nutrients for your body, too.
If you're already living on a diet of ramen while cramming for your studies, it wouldn't hurt to try some No-Men in hopes that you really are what you eat: brainy.
And if you're looking to share the experience with a friend, try a bowl together- now's the perfect time to ask someone if you could pick their brain a little.
The noodles come in a quirky pink and blue package, and can be purchased for 400 yen (S$5).
You can find more information on how and where to buy them on the Village Vanguard website.
And although advertisements show these noodles being served out of a girl's noggin, it's probably a no-brainer that you shouldn't try to replicate what you see.
