The magic food that cures all illness--Noodles!

     Everyone had a magic food that can cure all the illness and blow away the bad mood. For me, the magic panacea is noodles that my grandpa makes. The noodles I'm talking about is not the dry Lo Mein noodles you would order from Chinese restaurant, but soup noodles. My grandpa would always make the delicious soup first, then add in the noodles that has been boiled three times and rinsed by cold water. Meat and spinach are an indispensable companion of the noodles. Sometimes he would put in a fired egg, and the noodles will look very pleasant, with white eggs, green spinach, brownish meat and dark yellow soup. My body is warmed up when I take the first sip of the soup, as if the stomach is brain of the body and it tells the body to cheer up and get strong. There is some scientific logic behind, I suppose, like soup is good for the body, noodles is easy to digest, nutrition is balanced, etc. But emotional power is the real unexplainable magic.
