Tesco Value Chicken Noodles

...===How did I find Tesco value chicken noodles?=== I have to admit that when I was in England; I never liked to buy any basic, value or smart price products because I always thought cheaper goods means cheaper quality….I know it's not always right but in this case I was absolutely right! I like to buy bachelors noodles because it has the net weight of 100g and it costs 44p but while my last visit to England last month (strictly for business purpose!) ...
...a friend of mine recommended Tesco value noodles to try and for only 8p Although I wasn't too sure about it, I thought why not? So in my next shopping trip I looked for it and I found them, very little to choose from because there was only 3 flavours, Chicken and curry which are both 8p and bacon which is 11p, I can't stand bacon so I picked up the curry and the chicken, Both of those packs of noodles became nightmares for me and I would never try ...

Review of Tesco Value Chicken Noodles

...== Price and Packaging == Tesco Value Chicken Flavour Instant Noodles are the ultimate concept in cheap convenience food and these Tesco chicken noodles certainly are cheap. At only 8p for a packaged ready meal (I am using word 'meal' here in its widest sense) there must be very few cheaper options out there. I would feel guilty buying these noodles for my Jack Russell. Even fish food is more expensive. They come in the now traditional Tesco plain ...
...otherwise the experience of eating Tesco Value Instant Noodles will be an even more gruesome affair. == The Mystery of Chicken Extract == So where is the chicken I here you cry. There is chicken extract contained in these noodles (or chicken debris as I like to call it). The chicken extract is listed in the ingredients as being only 1.6% of the total contents and as consisting of chicken, salt, maize starch and malt dextrin. So we really are talking ...

Review of Tesco Value Chicken Noodles

...was slightly surprised by this tesco product as a review topic. Intrigued by the mass divided opinion and the nothing to really lose price tag of 8p I thought I would try out this product. ===Finding the Product=== I must admit I normally like to cook with fresh ingredients so had some trouble trying to find the instant noodles section but stuffed down the bottom of a shelf in York Tesco store I found what I was looking for, albeit with only a few ...
...through the roof in price. Tesco Chicken flavoured noodles definitely fill a hole and haven't got a bad lasting taste that you strive to get rid of. I think there is definitely a placebo effect on many products in supermarkets where you pay a price way in excess of supermarket brand only products as you think it to be a much better tasting product but inevitably if you had a blindfold eating test you wouldn't taste much, if anything at all, different. ...

Review of Tesco Value Chicken Noodles

.... Value Noodles: Tesco instant value noodles really have to be one of the cheapest meal substitutes available to people who are afraid of cooking. 8p per pack I can't think of any other product apart from maybe bread or maybe potatoes or rice that would give a fairly filling but reasonably tasty quick meal. I have decided to compare a value pack of Tesco noodles and a non- value pack of Tesco noodles. Packaging: The value pack is a bit different ...
...is mainly orange. The Tesco brand is in yellowy-orange while 'instant' is in black and 'Noodles' in white, 'chicken flavour' is below that in white too. The overall impression is orange with creamy coloured noodles creeping up into one of the 'o's of 'Noodles'. You can see these both in the photos I have taken. Both packs are simple plastic that you tear to open, no wasteful extras in either. Non-value pack costs 27p whilst the value pack costs ...

Review of Tesco Value Chicken Noodles

...from the "value" range of Tesco products....and value they are! We have been buying these Chicken Flavour Noodles for quite a while, my son who is now 11 will eat these instead of sweets or crisps in the evenings which has to be a bonus. The packaging is the usual "value" colours of the basic range from Tesco of white, red and blue which we have not had any problems with. No rips or tears so that the noodles fall all over the floor - before you are ...
...packaging is the Tesco Value brand name. It is kept simple showing noodles in a bowl, and then some cooking instructions on the bottom Along with the Daily guideline amounts of goodness in each pack. On the back of the packet is all the detailed guidelines for cooking the noodles.They are easy enough to prepare you can boil them in a saucepan of boiling water for 2 1/2 minutes or microwave in a 650 watt microwave for 4 1/2 minutes. How to store the ...

Review of Tesco Value Chicken Noodles

...put this question how can Tesco sell this product for only 8p. ? You'd think the consumer was the one to benefit, I think not, Would a large multi-national company lose money by selling products this cheap? NO WAY... For every magnanimous gesture they make, believe you me they will be raking it back at some level. All these miraculous offers we are all seeing at the moment, cheap this, cheap that, well it makes you wonder how they can't sell it ...
...being crucified at every turn, Tesco monoplising the market and the poor farmers and manufacturers clambering to get their products on Tesco's shelves. Ultimately it is up to us the consumer to call a halt to this practice, by buying locally produced food if possible,and supporting the little guy!! Am I a hypocrite I hear you ask? Probably, I do shop in Tesco, I do Buy cheaper products, but I can honestly say that from now on I'll endeavour to make ...

Review of Tesco Value Chicken Noodles

Tesco value chicken noodles are an extremely flexible food that goes well with almost anything to form part of a tasty meal or are great as a snack on their own although I have found that there are not quite enough noodles to be used as a meal in themselves.. I first found Tesco value chicken noodles when shopping one day. While trying to find one of the leading brands of noodles I came across these so I thought I would give them a go. For 8 pence ...
...know that when people hear Tesco value they think cheap, low quality and foul tasting however these noodles are in fact the complete opposite. They are a high quality product just packed in a dull and boring package. They have a strong chicken taste that easily rivals the leading brands and you would be forgiven if you mistaken the smell of the noodles cooking for a real roast chicken in the oven. Thes noodles really are worth pushing the stereotypical ...

Review of Tesco Value Chicken Noodles

...an economy that is failing, Tesco brings to you "Tesco value chicken noodles". These noodles might not be as posh as Pot Noodles, but what they lack in the fancy design they more than make up in taste and for 8p a packet who can complain? Let's look at this realistically. £1 buys you 12 packets at 96p you can't buy a pot noodle for that price! £2 buys you 25 packets at £2.00 Students delight in the fact that you can now buy noodles instead of ...
...top of a pizza? Tesco Value Chicken Flavour Instant Noodles offer cheap convenient food that can be made in a matter of minutes. If you haven't got time for breakfast and are in a rush then the noodles will be ready in a few minutes. In fact, if you are anything like me then you will eat them out of the packet as you race out of the door. You could even spend a bit longer in bed and cook these for your breakfast. They make a tasty snack for any ...

Review of Tesco Value Chicken Noodles

I usually find myself in Tesco pretty much every day and always like to look for a bargain. My family all love noodles and when I saw the Tesco Value Chicken Flavour Instant Noodles sitting on the shelf staring at me with a price ticket of ONLY 8p, I just couldn't resist. Noodles are just noodles after all, aren't they? No matter what the price. ==The Packaging== Comes in a 65g packet in typical Tesco Value packaging, mainly white with short blue ...
...hung temptingly over a fork. ==The Taste== I couldn't wait to get home to try these noodles out. They can either be cooked in the microwave, which takes between 3 ½ - 4 ½ minutes depending on the wattage of your microwave or on the hob, which takes approximately 2 - 3 minutes. I personally prefer the hob. On opening the noodles they come out in a solid block of noodles with the flavouring in a little silver sachet. You break the noodles into smaller ...

Review of Tesco Value Chicken Noodles

These delicious Tesco value chicken noodles are the perfect thing to make when you want a light meal or snack. They can be a side dish or eaten on their own. Price: Normally when i go shopping, i get a more expensive brand because i thought the cheaper it is, the poorer the quality. When i first saw these i thought they would taste disgusting as they were a meagre 8p per pack. One of my friends who was with me though said that she had tried asda ...
...to represent Tesco. It has Tesco Value Chicken Noodles on it and also a picture. On the back of the pack, there is also nutritional information. Overall, the packaging is more in my opinion as it does not catch your eye therefore reducing the chances of you buying it. Cooking Instructions: Hob - Firstly place 200ml of boiling hot water into a saucepan and add the contents of the seasoning packet. Usually i break it down into smaller pieces as ...

Review of Tesco Value Chicken Noodles

...says she gets these cheap Tesco noodles because the kids like them and not because she is a cheap skate but I have my doubts. At 8p per packet could these Tesco value chicken flavour noodles actually be any good? Well the answer is yes they can and they are actually way better than I had ever expected them to be. They come in a 65g packet which has the usual Tesco no frills to it just white in the main but with the blue stripes known to Tesco and ...
...how I made them) or cooked on the hob. In the micro for 3-4 minutes and they are ready, take them out and simply enjoy but they will be very hot so take care. The noodles are a slightly yellow colour from the chicken flavouring which is surprisingly strong for such a cheap snack. The noodles are very soft which is how i like them, if you prefer firmer noodles then you may not like these, the taste is purely of chicken they are neither salty nor spicy ...

Review of Tesco Value Chicken Noodles

...was to start buying more Tesco Value products, of which I have been pleasantly surprised. A lot of the Tesco Value products are actually pretty good. I'd rather not know what most of the Tesco Value processed meats are made of, I just know that they taste pretty good. One product that I have been buying for quite some time now is the Tesco Value Chicken Flavour Instant Noodles. And of late, I seem to be clearing the shelves of this snack, because ...
...8p a pack. The Tesco Value Instant Noodles is not a meal, but a really good, appetising snack. In my opinion, there isn't a whole lot to choose, taste wise, between the Tesco Value Noodles and the better known, more expensive Batchelors Super Noodles. The noodles do come in a range of flavours, including curry and bacon flavour, but chicken is certainly my favourite. The noodles are quick and easy to prepare. They can be prepared simply by adding ...

Review of Tesco Value Chicken Noodles

...noodles recently in my local Tesco store. The price was 9p but I believe this changes a penny either way from time to time and I actuall saw them again last week for 10p so I can't be exact! The noodles are provided in basic Tesco value packaging which shoes noodles on the front, advises that this is chicken flavour instant noodles and then has the familiar Tesco Value logo and red & white colour scheme just to let everybody nosying at your basket ...
...get 65g of noodles for your money, place them in to a bowl, cover with 200ml of boiling water and then put in to the microwave for 2-3 minutes. I cook these noodles in the same way that I cook super noodles, I cook for 2-3 minutes, stir, cook for another 2-3 minutes and then once most of the water has disappeared I add the sachet of chicken flavouring and then put them back in the microwave for another 1-2 minutes until the last of the water has ...
