Meet the Pot Noodle superfan who has munched through more than 4,000 of the snacks in his lifetime - and even eats some which are 14 years out of date. Dad-of-three Dean Pugh, 53, has dined out on the popular snack every day for nearly a decade.
He's spent more than £3,000 on memorabilia dedicated to his favourite meal including three vending machines and a Chicken Korma pot signed by 90s model Caprice. Plasterer Dean loves the classic Chicken and Mushroom flavour, but also has a soft spot for the Bombay Bad Boy.
He scours the web for unopened pots of discontinued flavours, like Mac and Cheese and Brazilian BBQ Steak, and has over 50 different varieties in his kitchen cupboard. The fanatic recently bought a new vending machine from eBay for £500 which plays tunes while it cooks his noodles.
