A thief in Tokyo, Japan, ignored the cash at a ramen shop, instead opting to steal 130 soft-boiled eggs.

The shop owner, who was unidentified, was puzzled when he discovered the break-in at the establishment, which was first reported by China Press.

Lacking eggs, the owner had to announce on social media that his shop would be closed for a day so he could replenish his stocks.

Meanwhile, police said five other restaurants on the same street also reported break-ins, and that they lost a total of ¥10,000 (around P4,750).  Katrina Hallare /ra
