- "My auntie makes the most delicious clear-noodles with sliced yobshrimp and squeezed greencitrus. You'd probably have to fight off four dozen cousins to get some, but it's worth it."
- ―Zyle Keem attempting to distract Driggit Parse
Clear-noodles were a type of noodles edible to Zabraks. During the High Republic Era, the aunt of the aspiring pirate Zyle Keem cooked the noodles with sliced yobshrimp and squeezed greencitrus at family gatherings. When served, the dish was well-received by the Iridonian Zabraks in the Keem family.[1] In 229 BBY,[2] Keem encountered the Nihil recruit Driggit Parse on the Outer Rim planet Valo. When Parse sought to take them into custody for being out past curfew, the pirate began trying to distract her by engaging her in a rapidly paced conversation about mundane aspects of their life, including how their aunt made the clear-noodle dish at family gatherings.[1]
