I'd argue the way that ramen noodles are made is different enough. Spaghetti is just flour, water, and salt whereas ramen noodles can have an alkaline process (kansui) among other things. Spaghetti is also one type of noodle whereas ramen is a category with a fair bit of variety.

I’d argue the way that weebs are made is different enough. People are just flour, water, and salt whereas weebs can have an alkaline process (kansui) among other things.

If you're saying I'm a weeb, that's actually a first. I do live in Japan but don't give a shit about anima or manga and have plenty of criticisms about life here.
