1 00:00:00,480 --> 00:00:07,600 Speaker 1: Sober Ramen, rice or kim udon. Maybe your noodle preference 2 00:00:07,760 --> 00:00:11,000 Speaker 1: is two minutes. So what types of noodle do you 3 00:00:11,080 --> 00:00:13,520 Speaker 1: enjoy best? Because there are so many types available with 4 00:00:13,520 --> 00:00:16,800 Speaker 1: the supermarkets that it can be a little bit confusing. Hi, 5 00:00:16,840 --> 00:00:19,160 Speaker 1: I'm Susie Burrow and amiian Wood and as two of 6 00:00:19,200 --> 00:00:22,080 Speaker 1: austraighta is leading dieticians, we bring you the Nutrition Couch 7 00:00:22,120 --> 00:00:25,160 Speaker 1: Product Review, a weekly chat on new products and old 8 00:00:25,160 --> 00:00:28,360 Speaker 1: favorites that you can find in supermarkets. And I know 9 00:00:28,480 --> 00:00:31,040 Speaker 1: that this is a really popular meal choice. I know 10 00:00:31,080 --> 00:00:34,360 Speaker 1: Ozzie's love their noodles and so we've chosen three very 11 00:00:34,360 --> 00:00:38,239 Speaker 1: different varieties to discuss the pros and cons of each 12 00:00:38,280 --> 00:00:40,440 Speaker 1: in a big shout out and thank you to our 13 00:00:40,600 --> 00:00:43,600 Speaker 1: dietitian help out Amy who has gone and done the 14 00:00:43,640 --> 00:00:46,280 Speaker 1: research for these and really helps us with our products. 15 00:00:46,280 --> 00:00:47,960 Speaker 1: So a big thank you to her. Now what I 16 00:00:48,040 --> 00:00:51,240 Speaker 1: need to know straight away, Lean is what noodles did 17 00:00:51,320 --> 00:00:53,840 Speaker 1: Sophie buy in the I don't know what your maiden 18 00:00:53,880 --> 00:00:55,760 Speaker 1: name was, I know your Ward that was your name 19 00:00:55,840 --> 00:00:57,400 Speaker 1: in the Ward household. 20 00:00:57,040 --> 00:01:01,920 Speaker 2: Yeah, wady bow background. Mum would always bar either Russ 21 00:01:02,080 --> 00:01:05,280 Speaker 2: or hockn or occasionally we do sober, but my dad 22 00:01:05,280 --> 00:01:07,880 Speaker 2: would hate it. He'd be like, what's this crap? So 23 00:01:08,040 --> 00:01:10,280 Speaker 2: mostly we did either a rice noodle or a hockey 24 00:01:10,360 --> 00:01:12,720 Speaker 2: noodle I think grown up. My brother definitely liked the howkin, 25 00:01:12,800 --> 00:01:13,520 Speaker 2: he didn't like riss. 26 00:01:13,800 --> 00:01:15,800 Speaker 1: I don't do a lot of noodles now. I'm not 27 00:01:15,840 --> 00:01:19,120 Speaker 1: a massive noodle fan myself, and of course, if we're 28 00:01:19,120 --> 00:01:20,960 Speaker 1: areing tie, who doesn't love to pad tie? But I 29 00:01:21,000 --> 00:01:23,480 Speaker 1: don't ever cook them myself. But you've just jougged my 30 00:01:23,520 --> 00:01:25,600 Speaker 1: memory that my mum would cook a hokin noodle stir 31 00:01:25,720 --> 00:01:29,160 Speaker 1: fry every week. In the nineties, the noodles were new 32 00:01:29,200 --> 00:01:31,120 Speaker 1: in the supermarket. It was like the latest thing. So 33 00:01:31,160 --> 00:01:33,440 Speaker 1: we would have that sturf fry every single week, and 34 00:01:33,480 --> 00:01:36,560 Speaker 1: I think I had my over full fill with it 35 00:01:36,760 --> 00:01:39,400 Speaker 1: growing up. So anyway, we've got some interesting ones to 36 00:01:39,400 --> 00:01:43,160 Speaker 1: talk about. The first is that and will include images 37 00:01:43,200 --> 00:01:45,080 Speaker 1: of this on our social media, so if you haven't 38 00:01:45,080 --> 00:01:47,520 Speaker 1: followed us on the Nutrition Couch podcast, you can actually 39 00:01:47,520 --> 00:01:50,279 Speaker 1: see what they look like. These ones, I'm not really 40 00:01:50,320 --> 00:01:53,080 Speaker 1: that familiar with them, but they're called the Haku Baku 41 00:01:54,000 --> 00:01:58,320 Speaker 1: organic sober Noodles. Now they retail about four dollars or 42 00:01:58,360 --> 00:02:00,960 Speaker 1: they were on sale at this point for just under 43 00:02:01,000 --> 00:02:03,200 Speaker 1: three dollars it calls at the time we recorded this. 44 00:02:03,960 --> 00:02:08,360 Speaker 1: Now they recommend it is three servings per pack. And 45 00:02:08,440 --> 00:02:11,440 Speaker 1: I think one of the big discussion points with noodles 46 00:02:11,520 --> 00:02:13,680 Speaker 1: is serving size, because it's like anything, A small amount 47 00:02:13,680 --> 00:02:15,680 Speaker 1: of anything is probably not a big problem, but the 48 00:02:15,760 --> 00:02:18,160 Speaker 1: serves I've noticed in general can be quite large. So 49 00:02:18,560 --> 00:02:20,720 Speaker 1: this is suggesting for a packet of these you do 50 00:02:20,880 --> 00:02:23,880 Speaker 1: three serves per pack and then lean that will come 51 00:02:23,960 --> 00:02:26,320 Speaker 1: in at twelve hundred and ninety six kilo jules, which 52 00:02:26,360 --> 00:02:29,120 Speaker 1: is over three hundred calories per serve just coming from noodles. 53 00:02:29,120 --> 00:02:33,320 Speaker 1: If you stick to that portion size, you're getting just 54 00:02:33,400 --> 00:02:35,960 Speaker 1: almost ten grams of protein per serve, so not insignificant 55 00:02:36,000 --> 00:02:39,400 Speaker 1: coming from the base of that noodle, coming from the 56 00:02:39,440 --> 00:02:43,160 Speaker 1: actual great cereal itself. At nine point eight grams fat, 57 00:02:43,200 --> 00:02:44,880 Speaker 1: low as you would expect in a noodle, one point 58 00:02:44,919 --> 00:02:49,360 Speaker 1: six grams one point eight per hundred point three saturated, 59 00:02:49,440 --> 00:02:51,480 Speaker 1: very low as you would expect, but it's a high 60 00:02:51,480 --> 00:02:54,440 Speaker 1: carbohydrate food noodle similar to rice or pasta. So this 61 00:02:54,520 --> 00:02:58,200 Speaker 1: is sixty one grams per serve, so about two thirds 62 00:02:58,240 --> 00:03:02,000 Speaker 1: of it is carbohydrate. Sixty exactly two thirds sixty seven 63 00:03:02,000 --> 00:03:05,880 Speaker 1: point eight per hundred. It hasn't listed the dietary fiber 64 00:03:05,919 --> 00:03:08,200 Speaker 1: on here unless you were having kind of I would 65 00:03:08,200 --> 00:03:11,000 Speaker 1: assume something like a legume based pasta or noodle, You 66 00:03:11,000 --> 00:03:12,919 Speaker 1: wouldn't get a huge amount of dietary fiber. It does 67 00:03:12,960 --> 00:03:15,440 Speaker 1: tend to be more refined and eight hundred and three 68 00:03:15,440 --> 00:03:18,760 Speaker 1: milligrams of sodium, which is not insignificant. When you think 69 00:03:18,800 --> 00:03:22,079 Speaker 1: it's sort of a plain food, you wouldn't necessarily imagine 70 00:03:22,080 --> 00:03:24,120 Speaker 1: that it had some sodium matter, but it certainly does. 71 00:03:24,600 --> 00:03:26,920 Speaker 1: The first ingredient was organic wheat flour, which is where 72 00:03:26,960 --> 00:03:29,680 Speaker 1: that protein's coming from its sixty nine percent, followed by 73 00:03:29,919 --> 00:03:32,519 Speaker 1: organic buck wheat flower twenty nine percent, and some salt 74 00:03:32,520 --> 00:03:35,440 Speaker 1: in there to flavor it up. So it's not insignificant. 75 00:03:35,440 --> 00:03:37,400 Speaker 1: Eight hundred milligrams. I have to say I would be 76 00:03:37,440 --> 00:03:39,800 Speaker 1: a little bit concerned with some clients having that, particularly 77 00:03:39,800 --> 00:03:41,920 Speaker 1: when it's often included as part of an Asian meal 78 00:03:41,960 --> 00:03:44,120 Speaker 1: where you're having a lot of extra sources through that 79 00:03:44,160 --> 00:03:47,000 Speaker 1: will end up being a really high sodium meal made 80 00:03:47,040 --> 00:03:48,960 Speaker 1: in Australia from at least seventy one percent of Australian 81 00:03:49,040 --> 00:03:51,760 Speaker 1: ingredient so oh, what do I give it? I'd probably 82 00:03:51,800 --> 00:03:53,680 Speaker 1: give it maybe a seven. 83 00:03:54,000 --> 00:03:54,240 Speaker 2: You know. 84 00:03:54,440 --> 00:03:56,680 Speaker 1: I like the ingredient list in the sense it's got 85 00:03:57,480 --> 00:03:59,720 Speaker 1: a really good quality wheat flour and buck wheat flour. 86 00:04:00,040 --> 00:04:01,720 Speaker 1: I'd love to see a fiber on it. We don't 87 00:04:01,760 --> 00:04:04,200 Speaker 1: have that on the label. I think the sodium's a 88 00:04:04,240 --> 00:04:06,840 Speaker 1: bit high, which would steer me away. But with any 89 00:04:06,880 --> 00:04:08,839 Speaker 1: of these noodles that I would make it last sort 90 00:04:08,840 --> 00:04:10,920 Speaker 1: of doubleout serving, and I'd make it last six per 91 00:04:10,960 --> 00:04:13,640 Speaker 1: serve and then dilute that and have a lot more 92 00:04:13,720 --> 00:04:15,760 Speaker 1: being protein and veggies as part of a meal. And 93 00:04:15,800 --> 00:04:18,640 Speaker 1: then of course you're only getting four hundred milligrams of sodium, 94 00:04:18,680 --> 00:04:21,800 Speaker 1: so a bit better nutritionally. So yeah, I think it's 95 00:04:21,880 --> 00:04:24,480 Speaker 1: middle of the ground for me noodlewise. I haven't tried them. 96 00:04:24,480 --> 00:04:25,960 Speaker 1: What about you? Have you tried them before? 97 00:04:26,160 --> 00:04:28,040 Speaker 2: Yeah, I've tried them. They're not my favorite noodle. We 98 00:04:28,080 --> 00:04:29,479 Speaker 2: did have them a couple of times growing up, but 99 00:04:29,520 --> 00:04:31,040 Speaker 2: as I said my dad, my dad was never a 100 00:04:31,080 --> 00:04:33,080 Speaker 2: big fan of them, so he'd be like, don't use 101 00:04:33,120 --> 00:04:33,960 Speaker 2: these again. Soapy. 102 00:04:34,240 --> 00:04:37,320 Speaker 1: He's a Scottish man, isn't he. That is that Scottish? 103 00:04:37,360 --> 00:04:38,239 Speaker 1: No English? 104 00:04:38,279 --> 00:04:41,440 Speaker 2: What was your background, yeah, English, Yeah, great grandparents or 105 00:04:41,440 --> 00:04:45,360 Speaker 2: something heritage. So I would say that they're not delicious, 106 00:04:45,480 --> 00:04:47,160 Speaker 2: but they're also not horrible. I think a lot of 107 00:04:47,160 --> 00:04:50,080 Speaker 2: people buy these because of the cleaning ingredient list, like 108 00:04:50,120 --> 00:04:52,480 Speaker 2: you know, nearly seventy percent wheat flour and nearly thirty 109 00:04:52,480 --> 00:04:54,200 Speaker 2: percent buckwheat flower with a little bit of salt. The 110 00:04:54,320 --> 00:04:56,640 Speaker 2: ingredient list is very clean. It's a nice ingredient list. 111 00:04:56,839 --> 00:04:59,159 Speaker 2: As you said, the sodium is a little bit concerning 112 00:04:59,320 --> 00:05:01,840 Speaker 2: because you tip would put this with you know, soy 113 00:05:01,880 --> 00:05:04,679 Speaker 2: sauce or other umami type flavors which are quite high salt, 114 00:05:04,760 --> 00:05:06,719 Speaker 2: or you put it into something like, you know, a 115 00:05:06,800 --> 00:05:08,840 Speaker 2: soup like a ram and soup or something like that. 116 00:05:08,960 --> 00:05:12,599 Speaker 2: So the sodium for me is concerning definitely. The portion 117 00:05:12,720 --> 00:05:15,160 Speaker 2: size is large, like the packet of noodles is two 118 00:05:15,240 --> 00:05:18,800 Speaker 2: seventy grams and a third of it. They like these 119 00:05:18,800 --> 00:05:21,280 Speaker 2: little sort of ribbons around them, so they're actually pre 120 00:05:21,360 --> 00:05:23,919 Speaker 2: portioned into three sections. That makes it really easy, and 121 00:05:24,000 --> 00:05:26,600 Speaker 2: each section is about ninety grams. It's a very large 122 00:05:26,600 --> 00:05:28,919 Speaker 2: serving size. You could easily get two portions out of that. 123 00:05:29,279 --> 00:05:31,839 Speaker 2: But I do love noodles for the ease of they're 124 00:05:31,880 --> 00:05:34,040 Speaker 2: either ready made these days, like you can buy noodle 125 00:05:34,080 --> 00:05:36,440 Speaker 2: and or hockn already made. Basically you just put them 126 00:05:36,440 --> 00:05:38,640 Speaker 2: into whatever you're making, or you just pour boiling hot 127 00:05:38,680 --> 00:05:40,320 Speaker 2: water over the top of them. So they are very 128 00:05:40,400 --> 00:05:44,320 Speaker 2: easy carbohydrates, so particularly for kids. Though it's funny me 129 00:05:44,400 --> 00:05:47,599 Speaker 2: won't touch a noodle like she loves pasta. Won't touch noodle, 130 00:05:47,680 --> 00:05:48,720 Speaker 2: just like flick them on the floor. 131 00:05:48,760 --> 00:05:49,479 Speaker 1: I don't know what it is. 132 00:05:49,920 --> 00:05:52,600 Speaker 2: So they're an easy carbohydrate or energy serve for children, 133 00:05:52,839 --> 00:05:54,640 Speaker 2: but for adults, I think, as you said, we need 134 00:05:54,680 --> 00:05:57,200 Speaker 2: to watch the portion sizes. So I definitely recommend these, 135 00:05:58,240 --> 00:06:00,240 Speaker 2: but I think the portion size is key and the 136 00:06:00,279 --> 00:06:02,400 Speaker 2: amount of salt, particularly what you're putting it with if 137 00:06:02,400 --> 00:06:04,600 Speaker 2: you're using them. My mum used to make this as 138 00:06:04,640 --> 00:06:06,760 Speaker 2: part of an Asian chicken salad. So she'd use the 139 00:06:06,800 --> 00:06:08,880 Speaker 2: cold sober noodle. You just pour hot water over them, 140 00:06:09,040 --> 00:06:10,400 Speaker 2: she'd cool them down a bit. She put a bit 141 00:06:10,400 --> 00:06:12,800 Speaker 2: of chicken breasts, some fresh herbs and veggies, and then 142 00:06:12,839 --> 00:06:14,960 Speaker 2: a little bit of like atamamael sesame through the top 143 00:06:15,000 --> 00:06:16,719 Speaker 2: of that, which you can put like a nice sort 144 00:06:16,720 --> 00:06:18,640 Speaker 2: of soy citrus dressing on it. So it makes a 145 00:06:18,640 --> 00:06:21,560 Speaker 2: beautiful salad. Great and so good for a stir fry 146 00:06:21,560 --> 00:06:23,320 Speaker 2: as well, but you really got to be careful of 147 00:06:23,360 --> 00:06:25,480 Speaker 2: what you're putting it with, particularly if you do have 148 00:06:25,720 --> 00:06:27,560 Speaker 2: sort of cardiac issues, or you do need to be 149 00:06:27,600 --> 00:06:28,880 Speaker 2: aware of your sodium intake. 150 00:06:29,240 --> 00:06:31,400 Speaker 1: True, very very true. All right, I'm just having a 151 00:06:31,400 --> 00:06:32,800 Speaker 1: look at the next time which I actually find very 152 00:06:32,839 --> 00:06:34,919 Speaker 1: interesting products, so I'll be interested in your thoughts. This 153 00:06:35,040 --> 00:06:38,040 Speaker 1: is the Walker Ramen noodle, four hundred grams two or 154 00:06:38,120 --> 00:06:43,719 Speaker 1: seventy it Willies recommending four servings per packet. So the 155 00:06:43,720 --> 00:06:46,799 Speaker 1: the quantity or the calories per service just over one hundred, 156 00:06:46,960 --> 00:06:49,679 Speaker 1: five hundred and six Killer jeels, five point five grams 157 00:06:49,680 --> 00:06:52,760 Speaker 1: of protein. I get low fat, one point one grams 158 00:06:52,760 --> 00:06:56,920 Speaker 1: of fat, very little saturated, twenty one point nine grams 159 00:06:56,920 --> 00:07:01,119 Speaker 1: of carbohydrate which is very very lowly, and and twenty 160 00:07:01,120 --> 00:07:03,479 Speaker 1: six miligrams of sodium, which is also very low. So 161 00:07:03,520 --> 00:07:05,919 Speaker 1: when we take a look at the ingredient list, the 162 00:07:05,960 --> 00:07:10,800 Speaker 1: first ingredient is water, followed by wheat, flour, thickener, vegetable oil, egg, 163 00:07:10,840 --> 00:07:16,520 Speaker 1: white powder, salt, acidity regulator, and turmeric. So this is 164 00:07:16,640 --> 00:07:19,920 Speaker 1: quite a low calorie, low carbohydrate noodle. 165 00:07:20,040 --> 00:07:22,760 Speaker 2: So we went with this one, and it's interesting because 166 00:07:23,040 --> 00:07:25,400 Speaker 2: if you've ever bought these, they taste delicious. But show 167 00:07:25,440 --> 00:07:27,800 Speaker 2: me anyone who's getting four serves per pack. So look 168 00:07:27,840 --> 00:07:29,640 Speaker 2: at the ood on needle that we previously did, A 169 00:07:29,720 --> 00:07:32,559 Speaker 2: serving size was ninety grams. In this one, a serving 170 00:07:32,560 --> 00:07:35,200 Speaker 2: sizes one hundred grams. But they're ready made noodle, So 171 00:07:35,280 --> 00:07:37,360 Speaker 2: even though the serving size is it seems on par. 172 00:07:37,680 --> 00:07:39,280 Speaker 2: The others were like a raw noodle you had to 173 00:07:39,280 --> 00:07:41,120 Speaker 2: cook at first, and this is a ready made one, 174 00:07:41,480 --> 00:07:43,680 Speaker 2: so most people would get they'd eat the whole packet, 175 00:07:43,720 --> 00:07:45,640 Speaker 2: or they don't get two servings out of it, So 176 00:07:45,720 --> 00:07:49,760 Speaker 2: I think realistically it's a great product. I like that 177 00:07:49,840 --> 00:07:51,960 Speaker 2: a lot of these sort of yellow hock and style 178 00:07:52,000 --> 00:07:55,040 Speaker 2: noodles are sort of artificially colored as well. I like 179 00:07:55,080 --> 00:07:57,400 Speaker 2: that this brand uses tumeric to add that kind of 180 00:07:57,560 --> 00:07:59,720 Speaker 2: yellowness into it, and it uses a little bit of 181 00:07:59,760 --> 00:08:02,480 Speaker 2: egg powder as well. So I like it from a 182 00:08:02,640 --> 00:08:05,240 Speaker 2: I guess an energy density perspective. It's got a good 183 00:08:05,240 --> 00:08:07,880 Speaker 2: amount of protein in it. It's not too high in carbohydrates. 184 00:08:07,880 --> 00:08:11,240 Speaker 2: If for anyone with engine resistance or worried about, you know, diabetes, 185 00:08:11,280 --> 00:08:15,240 Speaker 2: gestational diabetes, it's a good carbohydrate controlled product without you 186 00:08:15,320 --> 00:08:17,640 Speaker 2: feeling like you're eating something that is, you know, like 187 00:08:17,680 --> 00:08:20,040 Speaker 2: a fake noodle, like a zucchini noodle or something like. 188 00:08:20,080 --> 00:08:22,200 Speaker 2: It's actually the real deal. So I quite like it 189 00:08:22,240 --> 00:08:25,120 Speaker 2: from that perspective. But I would struggle to see anybody 190 00:08:25,120 --> 00:08:27,360 Speaker 2: sticking to one of these serving sizes. I think most 191 00:08:27,360 --> 00:08:30,640 Speaker 2: people would use that packet between two people very easily. 192 00:08:30,800 --> 00:08:33,160 Speaker 1: Like three or four noodles. Is the serve not a 193 00:08:33,160 --> 00:08:36,200 Speaker 1: big pack because twenty grams of carbohydrate perserve is pretty 194 00:08:36,200 --> 00:08:38,840 Speaker 1: low for a noodle, like I would assume that's a 195 00:08:38,960 --> 00:08:41,720 Speaker 1: very small pinch is a mixture of stir fries. 196 00:08:41,760 --> 00:08:43,840 Speaker 2: But even if you doubled that, you know, forty four 197 00:08:43,880 --> 00:08:46,600 Speaker 2: grams and a serving is still great. 198 00:08:47,040 --> 00:08:49,000 Speaker 1: Yeah, it's a good one up. Yeah, So I actually 199 00:08:49,080 --> 00:08:51,520 Speaker 1: quite like it. Actually, probably if someone asked me, I'd 200 00:08:51,559 --> 00:08:53,559 Speaker 1: be inclined now to say, actually, that's quite a good 201 00:08:53,600 --> 00:08:56,240 Speaker 1: choice if you can stick to a reasonably small portion 202 00:08:56,440 --> 00:08:59,360 Speaker 1: and make it last two or three people. So yeah, great, 203 00:08:59,400 --> 00:09:00,959 Speaker 1: find very interesting. 204 00:09:01,000 --> 00:09:02,680 Speaker 2: This is really the allergies we have to watch with 205 00:09:02,760 --> 00:09:04,079 Speaker 2: the egg and the gluten. 206 00:09:04,120 --> 00:09:06,360 Speaker 1: True, and it's very long sodium, which is beautiful, but 207 00:09:06,400 --> 00:09:08,000 Speaker 1: it is made in Taiwan. So if you're keen to 208 00:09:08,440 --> 00:09:11,240 Speaker 1: stick to Australian products, it's that sort of a downside 209 00:09:11,240 --> 00:09:14,280 Speaker 1: of it all right. Now, last, but not least, land 210 00:09:14,920 --> 00:09:15,679 Speaker 1: two minute noodles. 211 00:09:15,679 --> 00:09:16,760 Speaker 2: You had to put them in. I had to put 212 00:09:16,760 --> 00:09:17,600 Speaker 2: them in though I had to. 213 00:09:17,880 --> 00:09:19,600 Speaker 1: Have you even been a student if you haven't eaten 214 00:09:19,640 --> 00:09:22,040 Speaker 1: two minute noodles. Now, this is the magic two minute 215 00:09:22,080 --> 00:09:24,880 Speaker 1: noodle instant whole grain variety in a twelve pack for 216 00:09:25,160 --> 00:09:27,640 Speaker 1: ten dollars, which is incredibly affordable at the moment, in 217 00:09:27,679 --> 00:09:29,760 Speaker 1: particular with the cost of food through the roof coming 218 00:09:29,760 --> 00:09:31,840 Speaker 1: in at what is that but eighty cents per packet 219 00:09:33,320 --> 00:09:35,160 Speaker 1: and the serving size when you add the water, So 220 00:09:35,240 --> 00:09:36,760 Speaker 1: this is in the case where you haven't used the 221 00:09:36,760 --> 00:09:39,640 Speaker 1: sashet yet and it's just the actual noodle bulk, the 222 00:09:39,679 --> 00:09:43,480 Speaker 1: sort of dry noodles people sometimes will snack on. And 223 00:09:43,520 --> 00:09:45,719 Speaker 1: the serve is three eighty grands when you've made it 224 00:09:45,800 --> 00:09:48,440 Speaker 1: up with water and consume it as the soup and 225 00:09:48,440 --> 00:09:51,080 Speaker 1: add the sashe in. So that's good that they've included that, 226 00:09:51,120 --> 00:09:54,120 Speaker 1: which is where all the salt is. So the energy 227 00:09:54,160 --> 00:09:56,520 Speaker 1: is nine hundred and sixty kilodules. So that's just sort 228 00:09:56,559 --> 00:09:59,559 Speaker 1: of two forty calories, or so seven point eight grams 229 00:09:59,559 --> 00:10:02,480 Speaker 1: of protein in one point three grams of fat, less 230 00:10:02,520 --> 00:10:05,080 Speaker 1: the one saturated to a low fat product forty five 231 00:10:05,120 --> 00:10:08,880 Speaker 1: point two grams of carbohydrates, so roughly three four slices 232 00:10:08,880 --> 00:10:12,360 Speaker 1: of bread worth in that packet, less than one gram 233 00:10:12,360 --> 00:10:14,560 Speaker 1: of sugars two point six gramma dietary fiber which they 234 00:10:14,559 --> 00:10:17,000 Speaker 1: have listed, which is coming from the whole grain flour 235 00:10:17,040 --> 00:10:19,959 Speaker 1: going through it, and then the sodium as we would expect, 236 00:10:20,040 --> 00:10:22,240 Speaker 1: nine hundred and thirty five milligrams, so just shy of 237 00:10:22,280 --> 00:10:25,320 Speaker 1: half our recommended upper daily intake of sodium, which does 238 00:10:25,360 --> 00:10:27,480 Speaker 1: come from the sachet, which if you've ever tasted, is 239 00:10:27,520 --> 00:10:30,600 Speaker 1: pretty pretty flavors. Somebody dealt with a nice dose of MSG, 240 00:10:30,640 --> 00:10:33,120 Speaker 1: as we will check in a second time. So the 241 00:10:33,160 --> 00:10:35,800 Speaker 1: noodle itself is wheat flour, wholemeal flour just ten percent, 242 00:10:35,840 --> 00:10:37,360 Speaker 1: but they are giving a little bit of fiber from 243 00:10:37,400 --> 00:10:40,800 Speaker 1: that tapeoca starch, water mineral salts quite a lot of 244 00:10:40,840 --> 00:10:44,920 Speaker 1: different flavors through their vegetable oil. Salt stabilizes vegetable gum, 245 00:10:45,000 --> 00:10:48,839 Speaker 1: but then our sachet first ingredient idol salt followed by 246 00:10:48,840 --> 00:10:52,880 Speaker 1: flavor enhances MSG six' two one and another flavor enhans 247 00:10:52,880 --> 00:10:54,520 Speaker 1: are sixty three, five which is why it tastes So 248 00:10:54,600 --> 00:10:58,800 Speaker 1: moorish mineral, salt multi dextrin, flavors sugar onion, powder so the, 249 00:10:58,960 --> 00:11:01,680 Speaker 1: ingresk the. Ingreen this goes on and. On it's pretty 250 00:11:01,720 --> 00:11:04,680 Speaker 1: processed and certainly not One i'd be recommending for small 251 00:11:04,760 --> 00:11:08,600 Speaker 1: children at, all given the addition OF. Msg oh, yeah 252 00:11:09,080 --> 00:11:10,880 Speaker 1: what would we give? It six out of? 253 00:11:10,920 --> 00:11:14,880 Speaker 2: Ten the noodle itself isn't that bad a flavor mixed. 254 00:11:14,880 --> 00:11:17,280 Speaker 2: Sense we're adding in flavor enhancers which we don't. Love 255 00:11:17,320 --> 00:11:20,080 Speaker 2: we don't LOVE. Msg and there's a huge sodium, amount 256 00:11:20,160 --> 00:11:22,360 Speaker 2: like nearly nine hundred and fifty milligrams for the. Block 257 00:11:22,559 --> 00:11:24,599 Speaker 2: if you were just to use the noodle, ITSELF i 258 00:11:24,600 --> 00:11:27,120 Speaker 2: think the problem lies in that people add the hot 259 00:11:27,120 --> 00:11:28,880 Speaker 2: water and they eat this as a snack or they 260 00:11:28,920 --> 00:11:31,120 Speaker 2: eat this as a lunch versus if you just Took 261 00:11:31,200 --> 00:11:32,839 Speaker 2: my mum used to buy these from a budgeting or 262 00:11:32,840 --> 00:11:35,520 Speaker 2: affordability perspective for us growing, up and she would just 263 00:11:35,640 --> 00:11:37,880 Speaker 2: use the noodle in the. Sturfry she'd never ever add 264 00:11:37,880 --> 00:11:39,840 Speaker 2: this sashe to. It she'd, use you, know a base 265 00:11:39,880 --> 00:11:42,720 Speaker 2: of chili and garlic and soy and fresh ginger and 266 00:11:42,760 --> 00:11:44,760 Speaker 2: some fresh, herbs and that's how she would make the 267 00:11:44,840 --> 00:11:47,400 Speaker 2: sauce for a sturf. Fry SO i don't have really 268 00:11:47,480 --> 00:11:50,319 Speaker 2: a big problem with the noodle base itself BECAUSE i 269 00:11:50,320 --> 00:11:53,760 Speaker 2: think from an affordability, perspective eighty cents for you, know 270 00:11:53,800 --> 00:11:55,679 Speaker 2: the cake of noodle and it actually goes quite a long, 271 00:11:55,720 --> 00:11:57,880 Speaker 2: way is not too. Bad but it's when you're kind 272 00:11:57,880 --> 00:11:59,719 Speaker 2: of eating that as a meal itself or as a. 273 00:11:59,760 --> 00:12:02,640 Speaker 2: Snap there's nothing really there in terms of. Nourishment you 274 00:12:02,679 --> 00:12:04,920 Speaker 2: don't have the. Protein we want more, Fiber we of 275 00:12:04,960 --> 00:12:07,120 Speaker 2: course want some, vegetables we want a little bit of 276 00:12:07,160 --> 00:12:10,400 Speaker 2: healthy fat there. Too you're just eating a, salty carbohydrate based. 277 00:12:10,400 --> 00:12:14,040 Speaker 2: Product BUT i will disclose that in my first trimester of, 278 00:12:14,080 --> 00:12:15,920 Speaker 2: PREGNANCY i couldn't get enough of, These LIKE i was 279 00:12:16,000 --> 00:12:19,000 Speaker 2: just so. Nauseous ALL i wanted was, salt and SO 280 00:12:19,080 --> 00:12:20,880 Speaker 2: i was using these AND i was adding the salt 281 00:12:21,160 --> 00:12:23,679 Speaker 2: the salt, thing And david was, like what is wrong with? 282 00:12:23,760 --> 00:12:25,880 Speaker 2: You like who are? You and that was ALL i 283 00:12:26,000 --> 00:12:28,000 Speaker 2: craved the steam minute, Noodles SO i had to have, 284 00:12:28,160 --> 00:12:32,080 Speaker 2: that in full, disclosure very, funny but, YEAH i don't 285 00:12:32,120 --> 00:12:34,400 Speaker 2: think the noodle itself is that. Bad they're. Not it's 286 00:12:34,400 --> 00:12:36,960 Speaker 2: not the cleanest ingredient, list let's be. Honest but from 287 00:12:37,000 --> 00:12:40,000 Speaker 2: an affordability and a budgeting perspective and a taste, PERSPECTIVE 288 00:12:40,480 --> 00:12:43,319 Speaker 2: i think they're good, for you, know big families on a. 289 00:12:43,360 --> 00:12:45,360 Speaker 2: BUDGET i just would be very careful about adding the 290 00:12:45,400 --> 00:12:48,280 Speaker 2: flavor sachet mix into. There use the noodle base as 291 00:12:48,320 --> 00:12:50,640 Speaker 2: part of a. Recipe don't give your kids it as a. 292 00:12:50,679 --> 00:12:52,080 Speaker 2: Snack that's WHERE i kind of draw the. 293 00:12:52,080 --> 00:12:54,040 Speaker 1: Line, yeah and this is where big companies have got 294 00:12:54,040 --> 00:12:55,480 Speaker 1: a big role to, play you, Know, matgine it's a 295 00:12:55,480 --> 00:12:57,600 Speaker 1: big company OR i don't even know who's the main, 296 00:12:57,640 --> 00:13:00,760 Speaker 1: owner but the, brand you. Know, so SO i think 297 00:13:00,760 --> 00:13:03,160 Speaker 1: they've got responsibility to be getting those kind of flavor 298 00:13:03,200 --> 00:13:05,800 Speaker 1: enhancers out of the food. Supply the issue is that 299 00:13:05,880 --> 00:13:08,560 Speaker 1: because two minute noodles have got such a cult following 300 00:13:09,160 --> 00:13:11,760 Speaker 1: that if you change the, formulation all the die hard 301 00:13:11,800 --> 00:13:14,280 Speaker 1: old users of it get really cranky and it really 302 00:13:14,280 --> 00:13:17,000 Speaker 1: affects their sales because they're so. Programmed it would be 303 00:13:17,080 --> 00:13:18,720 Speaker 1: like if you took it out of chicken, Crimpies, like 304 00:13:18,760 --> 00:13:21,560 Speaker 1: the consumers just don't respond, well even though it's better 305 00:13:21,559 --> 00:13:24,160 Speaker 1: for health long. Term SO i think it's just really 306 00:13:24,200 --> 00:13:27,640 Speaker 1: important for mums of young children to be aware of 307 00:13:27,760 --> 00:13:30,560 Speaker 1: keeping our younger children off flavor enhances is. Important it 308 00:13:30,600 --> 00:13:34,439 Speaker 1: really drives, appetite it's very stimulating because it's such an intense, 309 00:13:34,480 --> 00:13:36,600 Speaker 1: flavor and there's evidence to shot lights the brain up as. 310 00:13:36,640 --> 00:13:39,800 Speaker 1: Such SO i would definitely not be adding those saschets 311 00:13:39,880 --> 00:13:42,680 Speaker 1: or anything WITH msg into the diets of small. Children you, 312 00:13:42,679 --> 00:13:44,319 Speaker 1: know it's like, Anything it's probably not going to really 313 00:13:44,400 --> 00:13:46,440 Speaker 1: hurt a teenager in the scheme of. Things but, YEAH 314 00:13:46,480 --> 00:13:48,360 Speaker 1: i wouldn't. MYSELF i don't ever buy, THEM i don't 315 00:13:48,360 --> 00:13:50,719 Speaker 1: ever use, them AND i wouldn't recommend. Them but if 316 00:13:50,800 --> 00:13:53,360 Speaker 1: it's from a budget, perspective per noodle, packet they're very 317 00:13:53,360 --> 00:13:55,080 Speaker 1: cost effective and if you can use them as a 318 00:13:55,080 --> 00:13:57,440 Speaker 1: base to your own meals and cook, it Absolutely i'm with. 319 00:13:57,480 --> 00:13:59,240 Speaker 1: You so you, know i'd give it six and a 320 00:13:59,280 --> 00:14:02,720 Speaker 1: half seven minus the flavor, sachet which we'd really Encourage 321 00:14:02,760 --> 00:14:06,319 Speaker 1: maggie to consider the use of ADDED msg into products long, term. 322 00:14:06,160 --> 00:14:08,040 Speaker 2: And we definitely prefer the whole grain base of the 323 00:14:08,040 --> 00:14:10,080 Speaker 2: two minut noodles as well the extra couple of grands 324 00:14:10,080 --> 00:14:13,320 Speaker 2: of fiber it's not the white refined product like the 325 00:14:13,360 --> 00:14:15,719 Speaker 2: normal two minut. Noodles so if your kids need to eat, 326 00:14:15,760 --> 00:14:17,520 Speaker 2: them if you need to buy, them definitely off for 327 00:14:17,559 --> 00:14:18,800 Speaker 2: the whole grain variety if you. 328 00:14:18,840 --> 00:14:21,160 Speaker 1: Can like it's still wheat four with a bit of wholemeal, 329 00:14:21,160 --> 00:14:23,360 Speaker 1: added it's still quite. Refined there's a little bit of 330 00:14:23,360 --> 00:14:24,160 Speaker 1: health halo with. It. 331 00:14:24,280 --> 00:14:26,000 Speaker 2: Yeah, yeah it's still a little bit, better a bit. 332 00:14:25,880 --> 00:14:27,320 Speaker 1: Like we've added a bit of, fiber but still have 333 00:14:27,320 --> 00:14:29,960 Speaker 1: a nice whack OF msg in.
