日本科学家发明霓虹色面条
A man who created neon noodles is being scrutinised as he's refusing to reveal what exactly has given them their crazy colours.
由于拒绝披露关于“五彩面条”的上色细节，霓虹色面条的发明者受到严厉审视。
The fluorescent foodstuff is unbelievably bright to look at, but has sparked heated debate over exactly what they might taste like.
The udon noodles, were given a special treatment by a Japanese scientist who has declined to say exactly what it was that he did to get the electrifying effect.
But it appears to involve colouring the noodles with a special dye, and then shining what appears to be ultraviolet light onto them in order to produce the special effect.
Ultraviolet radiation is known to cause many substances to glow and it is believed this is how the scientist achieved this effect.
The Japanese are well-known for their love of colourful food, which in the past has included black and bright red burgers, deep blue curry and all sorts of other exotic variations on traditional dishes.
