Noodles on the go that you can eat on top of a mountain, or the middle of nowhere! A thought that hit me yesterday, there are plenty of student bloggers around, many probably living off a diet of instant noodles... So much potential! So many missed opportunities!

If Fantastic or Maggi started an online community for those who loved Noodles I'm guessing the takeup would be pretty good. People would share recipes, cooking tips, suggestions for new flavours and post pictures of themselves eating noodles in crazy places like the North Pole. It would be a good exercise in brand awareness for the site sponsor, allowing them to interact with their biggest customers. Pity they didn't think of that instead.

Even freeze fried noodles or cola. I'm a Uni student who lives off noodles and I love it. The problem exists when marketers attempt to build social networks around false passions, so instead of focusing on the passion around noodles, one was made up about pimping kettles. It would be like these guys trying to run a campaign about the funkiest flippers. That's not the passion, scuba diving is. Great post.
