Instant noodles used to have a reputation of being low cost and low in nutritional value but a wave of brands are redeveloping easy-to-make noodle products for a new generation that's looking for convenient yet healthful meals—and Westmill Foods does so with its uniquely infused noodle cups. The brand's Noodl Plus products are infused with ingredients like charcoal, turmeric and other super nutrients, which not only add nutritional appeal but also interest to the familiar and comforting category of noodle products.
Appealing to the Instagram generation, Noodl Plus offers colorful noodles that are packed with protein, fiber and interesting flavors like mushroom, Thai red curry and harissa. While there are foodies who will be familiar with inky black noodles, Noodl Plus also offers boldly colored pink beetroot noodles and blue noodles tinted by spirulina.
