Girls Go Crazy for Ramen

This is a noodle shop. Full of flustered young ladies. And a chef with buttons for eyes. On TV. In Japan.


Comments:
reminds me of a certain shampoo commercial in america...
 
No, the girls are saying, "can't stop." Yamerarenai is the potential form in a negative, non-past, casual conjugation. The subject is implicit and can be understood as "I."

"Don't stop" would be, "Yamenai" (negative, non-past, casual), "Yamenai de kudasai" (prohibative polite) or "Yameru na" (prohibative casual).
