CJMYInstant noodles have taken the world by storm, with demand for quick and easy meals skyrocketing. According to recent data, in 2021, 118 billion servings of instant noodles were consumed worldwide, with the market size estimated at USD 51.65 billion.
While they may taste delicious and be cheap, they are packed with harmful ingredients such as sodium, preservatives, artificial flavours, and monosodium glutamate (MSG). High levels of sodium found in instant noodles can lead to health problems, and a recent recall of a popular Indonesian instant noodle brand due to the discovery of a cancer-inducing substance raises concerns. It is important to be cautious about what we put in our bodies and choose health over convenience.
