Trting to find some actual gen on what's in em i found this - hilarious i think....

Superficially, it's not difficult to see how Pot Noodle might appeal to students - idle, poor, clueless at anything that might keep them alive, tastebud receptors already attuned to precooked, presauced, premasticated, predigested foods (if you are a student, open the curtains and try to imagine yourself as head of a marketing department instead). You can go out to Tesco and bring back a whole month's lunches, teas and suppers in a single black rubbish bag without breaking into a sweat, and still have money left over for some drugs. And there's no washing-up - you just keep a fork by the kettle, remembering to give it a good lick after use. Beans on toast may be cheaper and have the slight advantage of looking and tasting like food, but once you've taken into account labour and the greater capacity for human error there's no contest. The same goes for making your own pot noodles - yes, you can buy noodles and Oxo cubes but where are you going to find somewhere open after the pubs are shut that will sell you three peas and half a mushroom? Pot Noodle rules. And beware of imitations. They're horrible too.
