Pot Noodle

I once fed the family poodle
With some leftover stale apple strudel
The dog promptly shat
and the texture of that
Was exactly like Chicken Pot Noodle....

Author notes

I'd just woken up, and my wife said the radio station wanted something funny on Pot Noodle, so I scribbled this out and was just about to ring in, when she read it, laughed, and THEN told me they were looking for something to use to advertise the durn thing!

    Hahaha! I don't think that's quite what they had in mind for advertising, but it's funny nonetheless. However, the mental images . . . ick! This is a cute limmerick. Thanks so much for entering my contest!

    Nice AN!

    I find any type of form poetry very difficult to do, so I congratulate you on this limerick that seems so natural and not forced
