Pot Noodles taste different?

I only like the Chicken and Mushroom one so I'm only speaking about that one but have they changed the recipe or something. They used to smell a lot stronger and taste different to be not too long ago but now they taste different and less of ... whatever that taste was. You get me?

It's possible I havent eaten 1 for a long time, but they used to be made by Golden Wonder, now they are made my Unilever so if it's been a whilst since you last had 1 I would say they altered some things.

They were sold to Unilever in 2000, so unless you have been eating 21 year old pot noodle then it shouldn't make a difference.

Times are different. Times are changing. 👁 trust your intuition I say. I understand.

It's very normal for ingredients to change in readymade goods because brands of ingredients that are being sourced change regularly.

Ring the Caroline number and ask, whatever happens if you say you’re disappointed they might send you a few vouchers. Companies are always looking for ways to improve (aka cost save) recipes and of course there’s been huge pressure to reduce salt in vile concoctions like these which makes them even worse tasting

I'm damn sure they used 2 have a meat substitute in them like quorn before, that's why I only like the BOMBAY BAD BAD BOYS NOW!!! MORE FLAVOUR!
