I hadn't known that there was still controversy over who invented noodles -- I thought it was accepted that they didn't appear in the Mediterranean until Marco Polo brought them back from China.
But, so, anyway -- good confirmation. Those ones actually look quite nice. I like rice noodles in some recipes better than wheat and/or egg ones, although I think I've just been warned by RB that the rice ones turn to sugar very fast. Sigh. Perhaps millet is even superior?

An insult to Italians everywhere! Italy has had pasta since Etruscan times.
