"냉면 (Cold Buckwheat Noodle)" is popular food in Korea. In every cold noodle, there is half an egg on the top of it. Since I like egg, I always eat it at the last. Today, I got to know that it is not the right way to eat cold noodle. The egg has its usage here:
The cold buckwheat noodles are made from a mixture of buckwheat and flour. As buckwheat is high in cellulose content, eating this dish on an empty stomach can be harmful for the stomach lining. The addition of egg to cold buckwheat noodle is designed to protect the stomach lining.
I will sure to eat the egg first next time when I eat the cold noodle.

Wow, it's quite scientific!
But why do they provide only a half egg, not an entire egg, to protect the stomach?
Well, the half egg is said that it wont let people too full to enjoy the cold buckwheat noodle. How do you think? ^^
