Food Review: Mac and Cheese Pot Noodle

Mac and cheese pot noodle

I love Mac & Cheese and being an ex-student I still enjoy a pot noodle once in a while so when I saw a Mac & Cheese pot noodle, well I just had to!

Opening the pot there is a sachet of tomato sauce.  To sauce or not? I decided to sauce. I thought I’d be a devil.

A few swirls of the fork and a few minutes later it was time to eat.

Aroma

 

Sweet and a bit like ready grated Parmesan in a tub but then it soon hit me, Quavers! That’s the smell!

Appearance

Looks like a diet carbonara.  Creamy coated noodles with not much colour.

Taste

It’s the usual pot noodle noodles covered in a very fake cheese sauce.  The noodles are OK, but the cheese is plasticky and not tasty at all.  The sauce is creamy and covers the noodles well.

Overall

Not for me.  Nothing remotely Mac & Cheese like.  I like a packet of Quavers now and again but Quaver flavoured Pot Noodle?  Er, no thanks!
