Chinese noodles are possibly superior to Italian noodles because the Chinese were making noodles looong before Marco Polo ripped the Chinese off and began selling them in Italy - called them Spaghetti! Hah, what a fraud!! Years before Mao, the Chinese in fact manufactured noodle wheels that were very similar to the later developed western "wire" wheels (I believe another Italian named Borrani ripped that concept off the Chinese as well) that were formed limp then frozen solid. They were "winter" cart wheels used only in the winter in the colder regions of Upper Mongolia and enjoyed many years of popularity (primarily purchased by peasants).
