There are 3 versions:
- Made in Indonesia
- Made in Serbia
- Made in Nigeria
It used to be that the European market was getting them straight from Indonesia but recently Indomie's parent company opened a factory in Serbia which now supplies all the UK importers. The Indonesian ones are now very difficult to procure in the UK.
I wouldn't worry about it though as there isn't much difference in taste or ingredients (if any). I saw people refer to the lack of fried onion but they must be confused with a different flavour. The spicy flavour is the one that comes with fried onion. The original flavour, which is the one here, doesn't come with them in either version.
The only issue with the Serbian batches has been some quality issues with the packaging, with quite a lot of wastage due to damaged or leaking bags, which we never experienced before they made the switch. It's mostly resolved now though.
So in summary don't worry about the provenance, these are still the good old Indomie noodles and this price is actually lower than what we pay direct from the importers so go for it.
I had a leaking pack in the first box I grabbed, but was thankfully noticed before it went into the car. Lucky because I'm guessing the smell would linger on the car seat. Costco swapped the box straight out though. Already grabbed another box as well!
They Just take too long to make.
Link on costco says £9.49
Spot the difference!
Confusingly packets are similar, one is Fry and the other is Fry Spicy.
The last box I bought from Costco were the authentic Serbian version.
I cook each pack (or a single if just me) in 250ml of water and boil it away adding the packets as per instructions. Having the chilli power pack is a nice touch, without kids I’ll add it otherwise I’ll leave off.
Those are those are the ones we always get - perfect quick snack.
