It's a Vietnamese type of very thin vermicelli. What I specifically like about them is that they are so thin they can be "boiled" just in a few minutes of water boiled in an electric kettle, no need to actually cook them in a pan. Yes, I am lazy ha ha
I guess like... "Authentic" Chinese food? (whatever "authentic" even means lol). I mean... I think the common saying is that US Chinese Food are "Americanized" so its somehow not "authentic", but I don't exactly have much memories of it, so I can't say for sure as a first-hand account.
