Forget stocks, cryptos, property and what have you, this company is sure to be the next hyper rally bubble
Nissan Foods has created a noise-cancelling fork to mask the sound made by slurping down noodles
- The giant fork is 4.4cm wide and 15.2cm long
- It has a microphone to detect offending slurps
When the slurp alert is triggered, the fork sends a signal to the user's mobile phone, which plays the soothing sound of flowing water to mask the noise.
Nissin will however only sell the gadget if it receives 5,000 pre-orders by mid-December - at the price of 14,800 yen (US$130)
