Default Pot Noodle...

What have they done! Had one last week, thought I got a bad one... just got another and its also pants. Tastes rubbish.. apparently 50% less salt = tastes like old socks.

Whereas before they presumably tasted like Raymond Blanc himself had prepared it?

Check your pot - apparently the "Old Socks" flavour and the "6 days old underpants" flavour look very similar -maybe you just picked up the wrong one?

I has one the other day, there does indeed seem to be something missing.

Lesson being, dont eat Pot Noodles.

How dare they mess with this student food of the gods!

Even the the most obnoxious food snobs cant deny having revelled in the noodlillic splendour that is a pot noodle at some point in their perfect lives!

Taking the salt out of a pot noodle is like taking sugar out of coke or the alcohol out of beer. It is wrong and should be outlawed

i havent had a pot noodle in months n months. Does anywhere ever have a good few very tasty pot noodles followed by a dirty rotten one which puts you off ever eating them but then after a few weeks/months you try them again and BANG you get a good 'in and the cycle of pot noodle starts again.

I used to go out with someone who worked in Pot Noodle development. Indeed I think she was instrumental in the development of the "Bombay Bad Boy".

She was an absolute lunatic.

Years ago when I was a *little* heavier than now, I went on a 'Pot Noodle diet' for a week and lost about a stone.

Just didn't like the Chow Mein ones, smelled like cat fud.
