Pot Noodle Sweet & Sour - 90g

Pot Noodle sits in a very particular corner of British food: halls of residence, tea breaks on a building site, the bottom drawer of an office desk. It is the snack that pretends to be a meal and mostly gets away with it.

People in Canada search for it by name because the flavour is the memory. Sweet & Sour has its own loyal crowd, the ones who will tell you, unprompted, that it is the best in the range and that they will not be taking questions.

It comes in the familiar 90g pot and sits happily in the cupboard until the moment strikes. Boiling water to the line, a wait, a stir, a bit more of a wait. Eating it straight from the pot is not optional. That is the law.

Pot Noodle makes a whole line of flavours, and most regulars buy a few at once so there is always a backup. It also sits nicely next to a bag of crisps and a fizzy drink, which was the balanced diet of a certain age.
