A man in India divorced his wife for cooking him instant noodles every day for breakfast, lunch, and dinner, judge says

The man said his wife would buy packets of Maggi noodles, a brand of instant noodles, and serve them to him for breakfast, lunch, and dinner throughout their marriage... Eventually, the couple divorced on mutual consent, the judge said.

It’s safe to say food is not her love language.

His blood pressure probably rivaled that of the hydraulic systems do jet aircraft.

I recall an old Alfred Hitchcock episode in which the woman married rich men and fed them steak and every cholesterol rich food she could think of--then collected the inheritance when they eventually kicked the bucket. The last husband (older fellow) happily married her, knowing what she was going to do.

I had an uncle who had had several heart attacks and had been given last rites at least once. His doctor told him "I can put you on a strict diet with plenty of medication, but you've only got so much time left, so why not enjoy it and eat whatever you want." That's exactly what he did.

I have a couple of packages of instant noodles from India in my cupboard, but they’re Ching’s, not Maggi.

I know lots of single men, but no single women. All the single men can cook up a storm, actually the married ones for the most part can too. Few of the women can cook unless they are well over 50.

“Eventually, the couple divorced on mutual consent, the judge said.”

So, the judge gave them an instant divorce!

I’ll bet his lawyer gave him instant coffee and got him out of the office. “Leave your retainer and empty cup with my secretary.”

Hmmm. Maybe he had an instant noodle in the bedroom and she was sending him a message.

Two to stay married. (:

Did it ever occur to the man to cook his own meals?

That may have been the plan - cut expenses and do it himself.

LOL! I’d like to see that wife who has only ‘two jobs’.

"What you mean only two jobs?"

"That’s a lot of sodium. His blood pressure probably rivaled that of the hydraulic systems do jet aircraft.

Easy answer: She's trying to kill him. Men need to be aware that there is a reason that all these semi-reality tv shows about serial killers and murderers are overwelmingly watched by women

The Flying Spaghetti Monster is probably flailing his noodle appendages around at this man’s disdain for instant noodles. I guess no beer volcano or stripper factory for that Indian.

may have reflected his “instant” performances in the bedroom?

“My ex roommate got married and learned his wife couldn’t make Kraft Mac and Cheese”

My ex could only cook tuna casserole. I can’t stand to look at it to this day.

Is this Guy helpless ? Can’t make food for himself ?

Yeah, he can make food for himself. But, then, what is she contributing to the marriage?

He would have been better off kicking her out after the first month.

My wife couldn't cook when we started. So I taught her. And she got some cook books. Now she's an excellent cook.

Not knowing how to cook is not a problem. Refusing to learn would be an issue.
