While the plural is common, it is a plural form rather than the only form. SilkTork (talk) 14:12, 17 March 2014 (UTC)

But our definition refers to "instant noodles", and doesn't define a single "instant noodle", so work is still needed on the entry. Equinox ◑ 10:03, 29 March 2015 (UTC)

 Done Fixed the def to read as a singular ("one of a mass of..."). Equinox ◑ 20:22, 16 June 2015 (UTC)
