Ah, ramen! A nice bowl of Japanese ramen is so good that sometimes we wish we could just dive in and take a bath in the stuff! Oh wait… someone in Japan is actually offering a way you can actually take a bath in the stuff. NEVERMIND.

Citing the, um, “health benefits” of soaking in collagen-rich pork broth (you know that’s not how collagen works, right?) an entrepreneur in Japan has opened a spa where patrons can soak in vats of ramen broth. They can even add noodles. But synthetic noodles. Because otherwise, that would be WEIRD.

But otherwise, we’re seriousl This is an actual business that actual people can actually go to! It sounds like a real dumb idea to us, but honestly, if you’re in the area near Hanoke, in South Eastern Japan, we kinda encourage you to check it out. Because this is frankly too weird a story to pass up on being able to tell your friends.
