Muddled 乌龙

Singapore

新加坡

I was dumbfounded today when I saw the large pack of instant noodles I had bought earlier.

今天看到之前买的一大包快熟面,目瞪口呆。


Once opened, the individual packaging inside was identical to the outer packaging.

打开后,里面的独立包装与外包装完全相同。


I was also speechless upon seeing the seasoning packet.

看到那个调料包时,我也无语了。


I clearly bought udon noodles—how did they become "wulong" noodles?

明明买的是乌冬面,怎么变成了乌龙面?


This is what the cooked "wulong" noodles look like—I wonder whether eating them will turn me into a "wulong"?

这就是煮好的“乌龙”面——不知道吃下去会不会让我变成个“乌龙”?


Japanese udon noodles are also known as "wulong" noodles in Taiwan.

日本乌冬面在台湾也被称为“乌龙”面。

P/S: "wulong" denotes a muddle-headed person or a blunderer.

注:“乌龙”意为糊涂、冒失鬼。
