You could buy those cheap value noodles, discard the sachet of chemical flavouring and add your own flavour. I often do this and have used miso paste, tom yum paste, chicken bovril etc as well as adding various sliced veggies (mushrooms, spring onions, mange tout etc) and prawns or shredded chicken etc.

You're right, of course - I do this with Thai curry paste for a quick noodle soup - but then it stops being a 'guilty pleasure' and just becomes a pleasure - it's the chemicals that make it so special!

dream topping:o

I NEED to get some of that, I didn't even know they still made it.
I used to use it for trifle, a layer of jelly, a layer of blancmange and a layer of dream topping sprinkled with a crushed cadbury's flake.

ambrosia rice pudding (ideally eaten from the can - depends on company) i hate hot milk or rice pud skin - so ambrosia is the answer.

also heinz tomato soup - i can make soup and often do - but i can not make tomato soup like this.

i was introduced to both these foods by my grandad so nostalgia plays a big part.

Butterscotch Angel Delight (although we used to call it whip, did anyone else?)

And Pringles, but they are far, far too addictive to eat these days.

Chow mein flavour Super noodles with southern fried chicken bits is a guilty pleasure of mine.

And a burger is not a burger in our house without a slice of plastic cheese - somehow using proper cheese isn't quite right!

Steak Canadians

In perfectly square cotton wool bread.

With bottled ketchup.



Will deffo try the noodles in miso though, sounds good and lush!

bluebag

Frozen mash with a fried egg on top and a blob of butter big enough to form a pool.

Toast made with the cheapest white plastic bread ( used to be mothers pride but haven't seen it in ages) and slices of cold from the fridge butter.

Can't believe my cholesterol is fine ??!! Mad.

Just thought of another one which I've not had for a very long time. Might have to remedy that soon

Hot pork pie in a bowl of mushy peas with onion slices which have been marinated for a few hours (or overnight) in vinegar & sugar :drool:
