HONG KONG: Hong Kong customs has blocked one man’s attempt to introduce a new Asian fusion dish into the country – hash noodles.
On Sunday, a 49-year-old “businessman” (so he calls himself) was arrested for trying to smuggle about five kilograms of cannabis resin (hash) into the country… inside 14 packets of instant noodles.
Credit to the gentleman for his creativity on the culinary front, but customs were probably a little suspicious of a well-to-do business man bringing hordes of shitty noodles to Hong Kong. They’re not exactly hard to come by here.
The man arrived in the territory from Kolkata, India, and had flown via Kunming, Yunnan. He appeared in Tsuen Wan Magistrates’ Court yesterday, after being charged with one count of trafficking in a dangerous drug.
Don’t hold out for weed noodles to appear on menus any time soon then. You’ll just have to keep making your own.
