I know this sub but I don't see how my post would fit in there. Yes, I could've faked it but as you already said, there's no reason to do that, especially when checking out my profile, literally no effort goes into that profile. It's also statistically just a matter of time for someone in r/mildlyinteresting to find a misplaced noodle as that's not uncommon (speaking from experience from stocking pasta in a grocery store). I just found the noodle, grabbed it for a few seconds to look at it, placed it back where it was and took a picture for the subreddit.
