“Udon is forbidden” The topic of the “forbidden noodle sign” on the ferry connecting Kagawa … Reason for the message to ask the operating company: J-CAST News

The “Forbidden Noodles” brand, which bans the introduction of udon noodles, is attracting a lot of attention on social media. The pictogram used in the guest room guide of the new ship “Aoi” prepared by Jumbo Ferry (Kobe City) for the first time in 32 years has become a hot topic. No udon is allowed in any of the cabins on board.

In an interview with J-CAST News, the manager said, “It’s not that I don’t like udon.” So why did you post something like this?

“It is strictly forbidden to bring udon noodles or pets.”

The new ship “Aoi” is a 5200 gross ton car ferry currently under construction at Naikai Shipbuilding Co., Ltd. (Onomichi City, Hiroshima Prefecture). Regular flights between Kobe, Shodoshima and Takamatsu will start on 22 October. Jumbo Ferry has released guest room information on its official website, etc.

On September 23, this guide was introduced on Twitter, saying, “I laughed at the ban on taking udon to all guest rooms” and it became a hot topic.

“Are all places forbidden noodles?”
“Are Kagawa residents made of udon?”
“Udon Prohibition Sign Rolls Slowly”

The guide uses pictograms that prohibit the use of cameras, smoking and pets. Lined up there, a unique brand was lined up that banned noodles. The notice reads: “All places are non-smoking. It is strictly forbidden to bring udon or pets.”

A spokesperson for Jumbo Ferry explained:

“It was written to tell you not to take the udon offered at the ship’s store into the guest room.”
