Abstract: A die for forming an elongated strand of continuous material includes a front surface, an opposing back surface, a peripheral surface positioned therebetween, a groove, and a pair of peaks. The groove may be located on the front surface and may originate near the center of the front surface and terminate at the edge of the front surface. The groove may revolve around the center, getting progressively farther away from the center as it revolves. The peaks may be located at opposing edges of the groove, wherein the peaks of one portion of the groove contact the peaks of neighboring portions of the groove to form a blade. The die is pressed against an adhesive charge, such that the blade cuts the material to form an elongated, continuous noodle.
