Bachelors Super Noodles Fiery Vindaloo

If I can eat these then so can you. Super Noodles are no longer crap, they are now officially pretty decent. This is a warm and spicy job, but it aint vicious - you can eat these and still walk, talk, and shit.  There are noodles, there is flavour. Easy to make, and no dogs were harmed.

Tasty Bite Asian Toasted Sesame

We tried this side by side with the same company's Asian Pad Thai. We both preferred the Pad Thai. There is little actual sesame flavour - its mainly a vague savoury taste, a little dry, with some vegetable pieces more for vague texture than real flavour. It's  OK - I mean, it's edible, but that that interesting or yummy. You can eat it without complaint, but you don't derive much pleasure from it.

Instructions and ingredients

Tasty Bite Asian Pad Thai

I'd not seen these before, and they were on offer at my local Tesco, so I grabbed a few. Made in India in the form of those sealed Indian meals, except that these are non-Indian Asian dishes. I like the idea. You simply open the packet slightly, heat in the microwave for 60 seconds (actually needs longer as that doesn't quite get it warm enough, and then eat. Quicker and easier than the traditional dried instant noods, but also more expensive. Of the two we tried today I liked this one the most. It had a pleasant but vague savoury / tomato paste flavour with little pieces of vegetable and peanuts for texture and variety.  But we weren't overly impressed - certainly not enough to buy them again. Edible, but not that yummy. And while being moist, the overall impression was that it would benefit from more moisture.
