In the UK, Pot Noodle is a specific brand of cup noodles (ramen-style snack). It consists of a dehydrated mixture of wide noodles, textured soya pieces, and vegetables, available impregnated with a variety of seasoning powders (Beef and Tomato, Chicken and Sweetcorn) and accompanied by a sachet of sauce (Soy, tomato, curry). It is packaged in a plastic cup with a foil lid.
Preparation
The sachet of sauce is removed from the cup and boiling water added to the noodles. After two minutes, the mixture is stirred. After a further two minutes, it is stirred again, the sauce added, and consumed.
Commentary
Pot Noodles are considered by some (such as Red Dwarf character Dave Lister) not to qualify as a foodstuff. They are the traditional breakfast, lunch, and dinner of stereotypical British university students.
