The Pot Noodle easter egg is here and people are very confused by it

Hot on the heels of the Marmite ‘yeaster’ egg, comes Pot Noodle’s Easter Egg — and it’s fair to say people don’t know what to think.

Unilever, which owns both brands, revealed the eggs to a mix response online ahead of this year’s holiday.

But, the bizarre creation perhaps isn’t as weird as many would at first think.

Rather than a nest of noodles, the egg is indeed — thankfully — chocolate.

According to its website, the Pot Noodle Mug & Easter Egg “contains a delicious milk chocolate egg inside a Pot Noodle branded ceramic mug.”

The ‘Bombay Bad Boy’ version contains chilli-flavoured chocolate.

The product, suitable for vegetarians, contains milk and soya and is retailing at £3.99.

The Marmite version, however, is a little weirder in that’s it’s an egg made of Marmite-flavoured chocolate.

One Twitter user wrote of the Pot Noodle Easter Egg: “Ma maw has got me a pot noodle easter egg, wit in the world was going through her mind when she bought this??”

Another quipped: “What kind of animal buys a Pot Noodle or Marmite Easter egg?!”

Another added: “I can assure you no one in the history of ever has wanted to receive a Pot noodle easter egg wtf”

One more said: “Someone please tell me why u would want a pot noodle Easter egg”

Some, however, were more open to the idea.
