>colossal rice noodles

Is chewy the next crunchy?
The texture of tapioca bubble tea boba pearls?

What's the maximum diameter allowed for rice dough products to be classified under "noodles"?

"New year cake," Shanghai nian gao, 年糕, and Korean garaetuck, 가래떡, are chewed year-round.
They certainly look like noodles. Just really, really, fat.

Roasted, stewed, sauteed, steamed.
Cut into coins and fried, made into soup.

What would you do with them?
