# Hilarious! Chinese Instant Noodles Become Status Symbols for Rich Americans! "I Ate Them in the Forbidden City! Only China's Upper Class Can Afford Them!" Chinese Drinks Also Make Americans Feel They Had No Childhood!

> A Chinese internet celebrity tests how Americans react to Chinese instant noodles and drinks in Beverly Hills, leading to hilarious over-the-top claims and enthusiastic responses. The video shows Americans paying top dollar for cheap noodles and drinks, sparking amused reactions from Chinese netizens.

**Chinese Cuisine**
Ha! Ha! Ha! Ha! Ha!
Who would have thought that Chinese instant noodles
would become a tool for foreigners to show off!
It's absolutely hilarious!
"These noodles are super expensive in China!
I ate them in the Forbidden City back in the day!"
When it comes to the daily life of foreigners in wealthy American neighborhoods,
it starts with showing off.
You'd almost think you were the reincarnation of Empress Dowager Cixi!
(Click to watch the video ⤵️ )
This video about instant noodles is amazing!
It was filmed by a Chinese internet celebrity
in the famous Beverly Hills area of the US,
with the goal of showing foreigners
China's instant noodle culture.
Despite the guy wearing a unicorn mask,
which looks a bit odd,
he pays great attention to plating when selling instant noodles.
The ham sausage and pickled vegetables are arranged like French cuisine.
For a bowl of instant noodle set that costs no more than 5 RMB,
the guy shamelessly sells it for a whopping $19.99!
He even gives the ordinary instant noodles
a fancy, high-end name.
So, will foreigners actually buy it?
Hurry up and read on!
**The Show-off Guy**
First to be introduced
is this successful-looking man with exaggerated expressions and words.
As soon as the noodles arrive,
Tie Guy's performance begins!
I don't know if it's because people in Beverly Hills are used to showing off,
but Tie Guy gestures wildly and says:
"I've eaten these noodles before, right in the Forbidden City!"
The guy with glasses across the table
is clearly stunned by such an emotional narration!
Tie Guy sighs with emotion, almost in tears:
"Oh my god! It's really authentic,
this is exactly the taste I had!"
To show off, you need to set the stage first.
Now comes the key part!
Tie Guy drops his bombshell:
"These noodles are super expensive in China,
only the upper class can afford them!"
Glasses Guy is completely fooled and echoes:
"They do smell pretty good!"
Tie Guy then says proudly:
"Yeah, people there love them!"
And adds coquettishly:
"I can still vividly remember eating them in China!"
But being too cocky can backfire.
Tie Guy calls the waiter over:
"Please bring me a glass of sake~"
**The waiter says:**
**"We're a Chinese restaurant; we don't sell sake!"**
**Awkward!**
But that's not the climax!
When the guy from Northeast China comes out with the instant noodles,
Tie Guy probably wishes he were dead.
The Chinese guy tells the two that
what they just ate was Chinese instant noodles,
which is exactly what he's holding.
Glasses Guy looks at Tie Guy speechlessly:
"In a high-end restaurant? A world-class Chinese chef?"
Then he apologizes to the Chinese guy:
"I'm really embarrassed for my friend; he's just an idiot!"
**The Selfie Sisters**
Next up are the two sisters who are hilarious.
As soon as the noodles arrive, they take a photo for Instagram!
They think they look great.
But the strong, rich flavor of the instant noodles
is not suitable for foreigners who can't handle spicy food.
One sister says:
"These noodles are making me sweat!"
Even though it's spicy,
the blonde sister can't help but finish the whole bowl!
Her friend, probably impressed by her challenge, decides to pay for the meal!
Two bowls of instant noodles totaling nearly $40
are successfully sold!
After they leave, the Chinese guy chases after them
and tells them they just ate Chinese instant noodles.
The blonde sister excitedly says:
"It's spicy, but super delicious! I couldn't stop eating!"
**Beard Guy**
In the whole video, my favorite is this handsome bearded guy.
First, he's curious like a child:
"Why are the noodles I've eaten before straight,
but these are so curly?"
Then he starts munching on a baozi (steamed bun),
looking very satisfied!
Chinese baozi are also super tasty!
Chinese noodles are super delicious!
Not wanting to waste a single bit of food, Beard Guy
**then has a brainwave and eats the baozi with the noodle soup**
Very down-to-earth!
One bite, two bites, three bites, four bites,
he even doesn't let the noodle scraps go,
almost licking the plate!
Unable to watch any longer, the Chinese guy comes out of the kitchen and asks Beard Guy,
"Is it really that good?"
Beard Guy laughs innocently:
"Hahaha, I can't control myself!"
In the end, Beard Guy receives kindness from the Chinese people:
a handful of instant noodles!
**Chinese Netizens Get Excited!**
Many netizens were amused by the show-off guy's claims.
Comments included:
"So this is the taste of the upper class, and I'm tired of it."
Netizen: Haha, I laughed. Only the upper class can eat this.
Netizen: What's the Instagram of the girl in pink? 🐶🐶
Netizen: That guy who drank all the soup, why did you take so many packs of instant noodles? 😂
Netizen: That guy bragging is hilarious... hahahaha.
Netizen: Only the upper class in China can afford this.
Netizen: That guy's bragging is too funny! Upper class can afford it, it's expensive! 🐶 I'm upper class now! 🐶 Mom, I made it! 🐶
Netizen: I never thought I'd enter the upper class just like that. It's expensive.
Netizen: Suddenly became upper class... very gratifying.
Netizen: I'm tired of the taste of the upper class.
Netizen: I love seeing foreigners who haven't seen the world! 😆
**Drinks Episode**
Recently, a video showed a group of foreigners
fighting over Chinese drinks on the street.
There was also a foreign girl
who tried to buy a Chinese drink from a passerby on the street,
offering as much as $20!
(Click to watch the video ⤵️ )
Is it because foreigners haven't seen the world,
or are Chinese drinks too appealing?
Don't stop me!!
Here's what happened:
The same Chinese guy had a sudden idea
to test how appealing Chinese drinks are to foreigners!
So he set up a stall on an American street,
leading to some unbelievable scenes!
**Striped Girl**
The first girl to come to the stall
was wearing a striped dress.
Let's call her "Striped Girl."
Striped Girl
chose the rock sugar and pear tea from the selection
and was immediately amazed by the taste!
She was straightforward:
"This is so good! Can I buy a bottle?"
The Chinese guy said:
"It's not for sale!"
Then Striped Girl started a crazy bargaining battle with the guy.
She first offered "$1"
The guy said disdainfully:
"$1?! You can't even buy it at the supermarket for that. Are you kidding?"
Striped Girl didn't give up and kept raising the price:
$5!
$10!
"Are you kidding me?"
$20!
"I don't believe you won't sell it to me!"
The guy was stunned,
feeling like he'd found a way to get rich!
Seeing that Striped Girl had fallen in love with the rock sugar and pear tea at first sight,
the guy finally gave her the drink as a gentlemanly gesture.
The girl was pleasantly surprised!
**The Florida Water Sisters**
The experiment continued.
Let's keep watching.
The guy's stall attracted many customers.
Next came a pair of besties.
They successfully picked out
Florida water (a type of cooling cologne) from the drinks.
Yes, Florida water!
The girl next to them said:
"I want to try it too!"
But her friend refused mercilessly:
"I haven't tried it yet! Go away!"
Without any warning,
she was about to take a big gulp!
Luckily, the guy stopped her in time,
or she would have felt a cool, refreshing sensation all over by now. 😢
After the guy explained,
the Florida Water Sisters eagerly
applied the Florida water to their bodies,
grinning from ear to ear.
**Bird's Nest Brother**
After the Florida Water Sisters left,
more foreigners were attracted to the variety of Chinese drinks.
Then this scene happened:
Two hot-blooded teenagers started shoving each other over a drink.
In the end, the guy in the cap
successfully grabbed the drink he wanted.
He looked very pleased,
with an expression of pure enjoyment.
But the Chinese guy wasn't going to let it slide.
He gleefully told the teenager:
"What you're drinking is actually bird's nest."
The teenager immediately spat it out everywhere.
It seems not all Chinese drinks are suitable for foreigners!
**The Drunk Duo**
The most impressive were these two guys.
They looked like they had just finished a drinking session
and were still in a tipsy state.
The two foreign guys asked to mix all the drinks together!
The Chinese guy didn't dare to refuse.
While thinking it was disgusting,
he quickly mixed various drinks together
to satisfy their request.
Glasses Guy even shook it before drinking,
while his buddy chose to down it in one gulp.
After drinking, he said:
"It's pretty good! I like it! It tastes like a sweet and sour martini!"
This guy is definitely not ordinary.
After trying Chinese drinks, these foreigners
almost unanimously gave positive reviews!
This sparked a heated discussion
among Chinese netizens.
**Chinese Netizens Get Excited Again**
First, many netizens were amused by the "foreigners'" cute behavior!
They said:
"I love seeing foreigners who haven't seen the world!"
Netizen: I love seeing foreigners who haven't seen the world.
Netizen: Seeing foreigners so curious about Chinese food and drinks is so fun! And bargaining? $10 can buy a whole case in China, hahaha.
Netizen: That girl who insisted on buying a bottle was hilarious!
Netizen: At school, my tai chi teacher liked me and took me to a class with foreigners. Those foreigners from all over the world each had a bottle of rock sugar and pear tea. No joke!
Netizen: Hahaha! The guy who mixed all the drinks together must have tasted awful!
Netizen: That's not how you use Florida water!
Netizen: The bird's nest part killed me!
Netizen: Why not put out a bottle of essential balm? 😂
Netizen: If you want to drink, Florida water is the best. "Sweet... fragrant...!"
Many netizens also thought they'd found a way to get rich,
saying "I'm going to quit my job!"
Netizen: I think I'm going to quit my job. I've found a way to get rich.
Netizen: $20 for a bottle of rock sugar and pear tea? I feel like I could be a CEO!
Netizen: The whole time I wanted to be tricked into going back from Dubai to sell rock sugar and pear tea!
Netizen: $20 for a bottle of rock sugar and pear tea? No way. Last time I worked hard to get back from Dubai; I'm not falling for it again!
Netizen: I've already loaded a truck with rock sugar and pear tea!
Netizen: Hahaha, let's team up and open a small shop!
Netizen: I'm buying a plane ticket right now. Don't stop me...
Some netizens also expressed regret:
"How could they miss these Chinese drinks I love?"
Netizen: Last time I saw a foreigner drinking his daughter's AD calcium milk, he was overjoyed! 😄
Netizen: They didn't have Wahaha AD calcium milk! 😡
Netizen: Why no Liziyuan? ????
Netizen: That's unscientific. Where's Laoshan holy water?
Netizen: No Arctic Ocean! That's the drink that saves summer!
Netizen: No one drank that Vitasoy! So sad!
Netizen: Stop pretending. Want Want will beat them all!
Enough talk, I'm going abroad to sell instant noodles and drinks. Goodbye!
