Chinese whispers

Tony was talking about the leftovers of a takeaway he'd seen in the kitchen. We talked at cross purposes while I forgot that I'd got a Chinese takeaway a few nights previously.
I asked him what it was.

Tony: Plastic fings, wannit. Stringy stuff...lettuce or summink. Stuff I can't have cos of me teef.

The penny dropped.

Me: You mean noodles?!
Tone: Yeah, summink like that.
