The first noodles in the country to contain real egg plus Vitamin A and Iron, Cherie Egglicious, has been introduced into the Nigerian market by Olam Sanyo Foods, one of country’s leading noodle-makers.
Category Head of (Beverages, Noodles & Culinary) at Olam Sanyo Foods, Mr. Sidhartha Samal, said Cherie Egglicious noodles were developed after large- scale research across the country.
Samal further stated: “We observed two things when meeting mothers – most of them added eggs to noodles and almost all cited stickiness as a major issue, especially when cooked noodles were prepared in lunch boxes for children to bring to school. Cherie Egglicious, therefore makes life easier for mothers because it’s non-sticky, they also know that they are giving their families the goodness of real egg, plus Vitamin A and Iron. ”
