“Ramen.—Scooby Doo ending a prayer”

Some jokes identify the word “amen” in “ramen” (noodles).
     
“ramen - Scooby Doo ending a prayer” was posted on Twitter by Andy on April 6, 2022. “‘Ramen.’ ~ Scooby-Doo ending a prayer” was posted on Twitter by SheridanFolger on January 27, 2014. “‘RAMEN’-SCOOBY DOO ENDING A PRAYER” (shown on a restaurant sign) was posted on Facebook by El Arroyo on February 17, 2023. The dog character of Scooby-Doo in the cartoons of the same name often adds an “r” to the beginning of wors.
   
“How do you end a prayer to the Noodle God?”/“Ramen” is a similar joke.
     
 
Wikipedia: Ramen
Ramen (/ˈrɑːmən/) (拉麺, ラーメン, rāmen, IPA: [ɾaꜜːmeɴ]) is a Japanese noodle soup. It consists of Chinese wheat noodles served in a meat or (occasionally) fish-based broth, often flavored with soy sauce or miso, and uses toppings such as sliced pork (叉焼, chāshū), nori (dried seaweed), menma, and scallions. Nearly every region in Japan has its own variation of ramen, such as the tonkotsu (pork bone broth) ramen of Kyushu and the miso ramen of Hokkaido. Mazemen is the name of a ramen dish that is not served in a soup, but rather with a sauce (such as tare), like noodles that are served with a sweet and sour sauce.
 
Wikipedia: Scooby-Doo (character)
Scooby-Doo is the eponymous character and protagonist of the animated television franchise, created in 1969 by the American animation company Hanna-Barbera.[1] He is a male Great Dane and lifelong companion of amateur detective Shaggy Rogers, with whom he shares many personality traits. He features a mix of both canine and human behaviors (reminiscent of other talking animals in Hanna-Barbera’s series), and is treated by his friends more or less as an equal. Scooby often speaks in a rhotacized way, substituting the first letters of many words with the letter ‘r’.
