Disappointing

These have had mixed results in the past but here we go again with another flavour. Mild curry appears to be a very popular flavour with a variety of noodle manufacturers so I'm guessing these should be alright.

As usual I love the packaging on these Pot Shots, a good size and totally recyclable.

“How do they taste?” The answer is grainy. It's like the mixture hasn't all dissolved but that can't be the case, I'm an Instant Noodles expert and I always make sure that everything is mixed properly, for the right amount of time. What makes this doubly weird is that the noodles seem to be super saturated and are really watery. Plus there is no residue left when I'm finished so where is the graininess coming from???

“Do they remind me in any way of a mild curry dish?”  The answer is a little bit. There is a bit of spice coming through but no real curry flavours and that's not surprising looking at the ingredients. There's turmeric in there but no cumin, no coriander - honestly, what did they expect.

“How do I feel now I’ve finished it?” The answer is dry mouthed, not quite full enough and a bit cross at the overall poor quality of this product.

Conclusion – Very disappointed.
