Ah yes the humble Pot Noodle. A milestone in processed mass production with lots of health inducing preservatives and colourings! I am a longtime devoted fan. And yes Lorna you are right, the flavour has changed. but its the nanny state kicking in isnt it..they've cut out all the salt and you know what happens to flavour without salt, it disappears. You have to add your own salt now but very hard to strike that original balance. Oh the difficulties..... sigh!
I saw a big sign at M&S Canterbury at the weekend that stated all their food is being reduced drastically ( no not in price!) cutting out all the salt...but according to M&S without a loss of flavour. A massive sign it was too, you couldnt miss it. But I beleive that about the loss of flavour when I see it.
I like the curry Pot Noodles...and have you tried the Bombay Hot One...oooh lal la...very steamy. I come out in a hot sweat or is it a cold sweat, dont quite know.

...and what's wrong with formaldehyde pray??...nothing at all..it does a sterling job, put a bit of salt on it and it tastes fab. I am particularly impressed with the Festive Turkey one as illustrated by Phil above. That should do well in the run up to Christmas, perhaps not so welcome in the New Year, as a touch of turkey fatigue might set in at that point!
