LOL, used to grab one of those after my late shift at Sainsburys when working there as a student, 30 odd years ago.

Used to love seeing the crispy noodle things curl and puff up in the hot oil, don't think I could stomach one now though!

Know your guilt - did the same about 6 months ago on a whim. Was reminded why I had not tried one in over 10 years

I felt equally grubby recently when I purchased, and ate, one of these microwave Big Mac type burgers from Aldi:

It was awful.

Wow, didn’t realise these still existed!

We used to have the beef curry when we were kids, how the hell did we survive?

Light switch from the same era.

Remember these being “exotic” 30 odd years ago. No idea you could still get them.

Used to make one then make sandwiches out of the sludge bit with crispy noodles on the side.

I remember the little "meat" pellets that looked suspiciously like rabbit droppings.
