Pot Noodle

[remember]

I remember when these first hit the shelves in the 70s. They were so radical at the time, almost like space food! My parents bought a load of Pot Noodles to take with us on a caravanning holiday and i can still remember the excitement and anticipation of waiting for them to rehydrate in the boiling water. Chow mein flavour with a sachet of soy sauce was the best! In the 80s, the Pot Noodle brand must have been on a roll, because along came Pot Rice and Pot Pasta.

They also did Pot Spagetti for a time.

My mum refused to buy any for years as she thought they looked like warmed up sick, so I got the chance to have one at a friends years later.

I managed to persude my Mum to start buying them when I was at college as I had half days & could make my lunch at home.

I also used to have when I first started work, as I was working long shifts & needed a bigger lunch.
