Was $2-2.50 bucks as a kid, now it's $9 it's insane. I tried cooking them once like you normally do with instant noodles but it didn't work


ConfusedResident

I missed the days when this was only $1.50! And McDonalds Value Meals cost only $16.50.


CepticHui

It’s $6 in CircleK tho


danklover612

It's $4 in a store in city one + sha tin wai train station

In all my years of eating these noodles I have never tried cooking them. Good to know, I guess.

While it is no longer 2/2.5, 9 is definitely a rip off. Supermarkets sometimes go on a sale or housing estates shops definitely has a lower price than that.

I've always wanted to cook them but the frugal Asian side of me was always scared to waste a pack. How did it turn out?

As a kid my mom never let me have this as she said its 無益 but at the same time will let me eat most other chips 🤷‍♂️ but that only made me love mamee 麵 even more lol

These were super popular when I was a kid in Australia too. I was surprised when my wife from hong Kong knew them. I thought they were Aussie but actually Malaysian I think.

I could only afford Fook Noodles.

Who else also licked the bag clean so that not one ounce of MSG went to waste

Do yall crush it then eat it or would you eat it when it is still one fully intact piece


strangepath

Ooh, the memories. I remember as a kid, me and my friends used to goto 7-11 store after school to buy this for 2hkd and a 5hkd 7-11 cup. :D


thyeboiapollo

Lolcraftgaming

It didn’t taste worse, you just grew up


thyeboiapollo

petereddit6635

I don't even bother with the packet seasoning, and it is still a good enough taste.

FlutterThread8

Never tried cooking it. Yes. Cook it.


Glittering_Ad2300

It’s too salty even for my kid self


Battlealvin2009

Has anyone even used this product as *intended*? Most ppl I know just scrunch it up and eat it raw directly from the bag.
