Spagetti hoops...Is terrible

[norwegianWomen]

I am from Norway and we have got a british store called iceland food in Oslo. My british friends say that i should try spaggeti hoops because it is so popular in UK. So I did that. I don`t understand how it can be so popular. Do you like spagetti hoops? I just ate it from the box. Maybe I should add something more to it ?

You’re meant to put them in the microwave or on the hob. Did you do that?

Spaghetti Hoops are lovely.

From the box??

What box?

I hate them but I'm told they are very popular, and better eaten warm!

Did you heat them up?

Delicious on toast with grated cheese

What box?

Do you mean tin?

They need to be eaten once in a blue moon and heated hotter than the sun.

They come in tins not boxes. Are you sure you ate the right things. You heat them up. I usually have them on toast. Some people put melted cheese on top or have them on top of a baked potato instead of beans.

Beans, hoops etc come in tetraboxes in many places rather than tins.

I tried them once OP, I didn’t like them either.

They’re revolting. I’m not British though so maybe there’s a special spaghetti hoop loving gene I’m missing out on

Is this what you ate OP?

Guys, you can get them in plastic microwave boxes. It could also be that the OP’s English isn’t good enough to grasp all the English words for different types of container.

@norwegianWomen, you are right, they are revolting! My children adore them, I hate them and hated them when I was a child too.

Horrible things. Baked beans, are food of the gods though.

They’re only marginally less disgusting once heated.

Yes I mean Tin :) I warmed it in the micro. Maby I should try with some cheese. I bought 3.

An example of how some countries package what we would usually stick in a tin.

I was just concerned that OP had eaten something completely different. :o

You are not wrong OP. Hot or cold they are horrible.

I’m told they are very popular, and better eaten warm!

devildeepbluesea They’re not meant to be eaten cold They’re a hot food.

They're rank
Ditto baked beans
And peas

Heat them hotter than it says

You need it bubbling like lava

Slice of toast, spaghetti hoops and a poached egg on top. DD and I had this for tea for years on Brownies night.

Me too I was thinking cereal

Spaghetti hoops are the best!! Heated, loads of grated cheese on them. Put them on a baked potato or on toast. Eat them cold out of the tin when getting in at 3am, drunk, from a nightclub...ahhh, those were the days, waaaaaaaay back when...!!! 😆
