This cute bowl of Ramen noodles is a rescue Poodle Mix named Koda. Look closely and you’ll see Koda’s costume is no traditional bowl of noodles. His pet parent included fake peas, carrots, corn, meatballs, seaweed, pork belly, chicken, dumplings, narutomaki, and a big boiled egg. Koda even has garnishings of faux green onions and cilantro.
