A Pot Noodle enthusiast has transformed his home into a festive shrine celebrating his beloved snack, complete with a Christmas tree adorned with Pot Noodle-themed trinkets. Dean Pugh, 56, a devout fan who's consumed over 4,700 pots and possesses an extensive collection of Pot Noodle memorabilia worth £4,000, has opted for a unique Yuletide decor. His living room dazzles with Pot Noodle Christmas crackers, collector's edition pots, and an angel fashioned after Ned The Noodle, the brand's 90s mascot.
Dean's twelve-year tradition of daily Pot Noodle indulgence isn’t taking a backseat for the holidays; he is even set to tuck into a Christmas Dinner flavoured pot on the big day. He hopes to receive a hamper filled with his favourite quick meal from loved ones this year. Adding to the eccentricity, his living space features three vending machines, retro signage, and a Chicken Korma pot autographed by model Caprice - his most treasured item.
The Pershore-based plasterer expressed: "I just thought it would be a bit of fun although the wife doesn't quite agree. I've spent years building up this collection and have become known across the world as the Pot Noodle King, so I thought I should show it off at Christmas too." He endeavoured to break the monotony of traditional decorations, saying "People always have the same old decorations up each year so I thought I'd do something a bit different.
I think it looks fantastic but the wife thinks I'm nuts. She's just learnt to tolerate it.
