Pot Noodle - who’s being unreasonable?

[briebuiltthiscity]

So there’s a hot debate going on in my house over the correct way to eat a pot noodle. I believe that you just eat until the “noodles” are gone, discarding the juice at the bottom.

Dh however believes in then drinking it - sort of like a soup.

Aibu to think he’s a savage

Noooooo, don’t eat the liquid!

Just the noodles and debris! Leave the puddle at the bottom.

100% drinking it

I drink the sauce/soup BEFORE I eat the noodles

You make a sandwich with white bread and butter. There shouldn't be any excess juice. When you've finished, wash it out and use it as a tea cup.

Drink the juice first. Then add some really hot chilli sauce. Eat noodles with a fork.
The only way.

*wonders if she can get hold of a pot noodle, purely for research purposes of course

Ohh curry pot noodle followed by a cup of tea - perfect 😁

Only savages eat pot noodles.

I recently discovered pot noodle - definitely drink the broth after the noodles are gone, a waste not to, especially now. I like the "naked" brand.
If I was your DH I'd keep quiet, and finish yours off.
Pot rice is disgusting, won't be trying that again.

my dd eats pot noodles with chop sticks !

There is no correct way to eat a pot needle; there is no correct pot noodle.

Times are tough, OP. Drink down every last drop. Or give it to me, when all this is over.

Now I want a Pot Noodle.
Wanders over to the thread about what food you are missing most ....

The liquid is the best bit. I eat a pot noodle with a spoon instead of a fork so none of the juice is ever left at the bottom by the end! My OH just eats them like you do. It horrifies me every time how he can just throw away the 'soup'

Do a home made one - smashed up noodle brick with cuppa soup in a massive mug. Any flavour you like.
Drink soup, eat noodles.
You're welcome.

YABU the soup is the best bit. Especially Bombay bad boy.

I can only assume you have no other food in the house otherwise why would either of you eat them.

I put just enough water in to cook the noodles so the "sauce" is thick and sticks to the noodles. Any little bit leftover after noodles have been eaten is discarded. DH puts way too much water in then drinks what's left. I will also only eat the chicken and mushroom one, he'll only eat the beef and tomato one.

Super Noodles are however a much superior noodle snack than Pot Noodles. Not so easy to make if you're out the house but I could eat chicken Super Noodles for days. If we had any. DH only bought the gross BBQ beef flavour last time.

Those saying why eat them, they’re on as an occasional treat / snack. Crisps, sweets and chocolate aren’t good for us but most of us are eat them from time to time.

YABVU. If you are going to eat a Not Foodle, then you have already degraded yourself and slurping up the juice is an integral part of the ritual.

I'm with your DH on this one. Sorry.

But only if it's a Bombay bad boy.... otherwise, don't bother xx

Of course you have to drink the last bit. Can't waste a bit!

What a great post!! 😂 Have to agree with your husband though!!
