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

if you don't like the juice, then don't put as much water in!! I like a thicker consistency for mine so either use less water, or add a bit of flour. I love it on toast or with Doritos crushed in, partner thinks i'm gross, but i'm pregnant atm so i can use that excuse!

Broth??! It's noodle juice

No, it’s pot noodle flavour shot!

Wow what a response! I should have added the caveat that we are of course both disgraceful for eating one. It appears I’m unreasonable so may give it a go next time.

@polpotnoodle
Exactly right! Love your user name was it a special one just for this thread?

I wait for it to cool then down the whole thing like a pint.

Yeah you eat the noodles then drink what's left

Slice of bread and butter for the juice. I do the bread first so the rest if nice and concentrated.

FAQs correct

I'm with you, the thought of drinking the juice turns my stomach.

However, supermarket own brand supernoodles are better than pot noodle and don't have as much juice

I even add less water so that the juice at the bottom is thicker.... it's the best bit! (And mopping up with bread is essential)

Christ, do they still make / sell these?!

@OlaEliza Dear God - like... how ... what... egg!?

Eggs in noodles are very popular in many Asian countries where noodles are a staple. Cheap protein source.

The snobbery about pot noodles is insane. They're probably nutritionally similar to instant ramen and that's an exotic foreign delicacy.

Yanbu the pot noddle juice is grim. The noodles are yummy though

I use less water to avoid this problem entirely
