They have the means. Watch your back!
how is the information half accessed? you mean you don't know the functionalities of those minerals he mentioned? do you need world research to know most industrial flavours and seasonings are not nutritional and are injurious to health over a long period?

People are always looking for immediate reaction of what they have eaten.... you need like I 0-40 years to pay for what you had eaten in the past.
all these diabetes, kidney failures, heart attack , arthritis etc do you think they just happened?
no, it is as the result of exposing the body to one nutritional or environmental danger far back...when the body can no more handle, it gives way to their outright manifestation... so if you want to see what indomie does, wait when you get old,
your mate will walk fine, you will be bending and shaking, complaining of body pains here and there.
Eat well friends

all that you wrote up there can only happen if you eat only noodles morning, afternoon and night and just eat it the way it comes in a pack.


When you cook it well, garnished with carrots, tomatoes, cabbages, green beans, egg, onions, meat. Then you have nothing to worry about
some mothers give their kids indomie morning,afternoon and night everyday .just ordinary indomie with no vegetables,no fish nothing.

Indomie happens to be the first Instant Noodle in Nigeria and it has been in the country by way of export since 1978. This means that Nigerians has been consuming Indomie even before you were birthed.

Until you mention 1 person who has died due to the content of Noodles or someone who suffered complications after taking noodles, your research is as useless as the poo in your soak away.

I and other staff, both Indians including the superiors eat Indomie noodles daily for lunch at the office.

You are a fool. You posted rubbish and you are threatening someone about spending time in jail. How much do you have to go to court? You don't come online to slander a brand and think your life isn't at risk. And you even spewed another trash by asking some to "watch your language online". The rubbish you posted is not enough bad words to bring out from your dead brain?

Just like almost everything's. Too much of it is bad. My advice is, don't use all the seasonings that comes with it. Instead add your own to it, like onions, peppers and any other vegetables.

No brainer!

Every prepackaged food is bad for you.

Cancer, kidney failure, stroke, etc once called oyibo ailments have taken over Nigeria because morons with money believe eating poison and microwaving food put them in a higher social class. Yes. Graveyard class.

The local fruits and vegetables they shy away from are used to extort from oyibo under the guise of "organic food". Give a Nigerian a bottle of honey from Nsukka and a bottle of sniper from London, s/he will drink the sniper because the label says "Made in UK".

At the detriment of people's health?
So you wouldn't mind if someone makes money off your back just to quench hunger.

I feel it is highly encouraging if these sort of articles are produced to advice people against certain behaviour.
With these sort of thing going on it will make the companies go into more research and produce more health-friendly consumables.
If you recall some years back when groundnut oil were have high cholesterol in them, but today every groundnut oil producing company are now producing Cholesterol-free products.
This is better for the citizens and as well as for the country.

Instant noodles is not nutritiously as bad as some of our own local/ native meals. I hope u know noodles is a native meal to some countries before it was imported to Nigeria? Bramen noodles has been a staple student meal in America, Asians have been eating noodles before creation of Nigeria.

The problem are our government and multinational companies. We refuse to regulate what and how they prepare and package the noodles. Indomie is one of the most eaten meals in Nigeria and it has been for more than 20 years.
