RIP.

I saw this on another site:

Unilever, which now owns the Pot Noodle, produces 175 million pots each year in its factory in Crumlin, south Wales. The company estimates that 300 of the hot snacks, containing noodles, textured soya pieces and vegetables, are eaten in the UK every minute. Unilever says that four Pot Noodles are sold every second and make up 95 per cent of the UK's £105m hot-snack market.
