Why "Hungry Man" On Indomie Pack? by dapo338(m): 7:21am On Aug 06, 2012
When i saw "Hungry man size" on indomie pack, what came to my mind was why the Ridiculing, It is very unfair and ridiculous to say Nigerians are Hungry people. Why not Family size or sumthing else? Seriously! I really don't like that slogan "Hungry man". What do u think?

What is going on these days? Is it the slogan that gets you filled? If you don't like the slogan, then don't buy na. Or because you felt that Cocacola had listened to your complaint and changed theirs, then every other product's slogan must be reviewed by the masses too?

No be hunger dey inspire people to buy indomie? Or is it demeaning to be hungry? I think it would have been an issue if the ad had read "Poor Man"

On point. Even the rich get hungry. 'Hungry man' doesn't depict poverty.

I actually see now that a lot have gone missing in the creative sector since the Nigerian economy started dwindling lately.

I saw the advert too and was immediately pissed,it lacks total creative concept,though a unique selling point but with a very wrong caption.

This could reduce their goodwill but I know it would sell,onlt a few percent of its market share will be lost.

They had better changed the tag,as it holds no value-added to customers immediate propensity to consume.

There are thousands of other lovely caption e.g Jumbo pack,Family Size,Extra-Large,King-size,etc

Please indomie I still cherish your 'Mama do good' Advert,not this one at all.It sends a negative effect instead of a positive value-added.

He is a customer and he has the right to express his opinion. A company that is sensitive to its customers' needs and objective and still wants to remain in existence would definitely listen to its customers. Please put check for Cocacola

Tomorrow. When the western media starts depicting you people as bunch of hungry people with kwashokor heads and tummies, i hope you won't come and say they are tarnishing your image and dignity right ?

There is nothing wrong with the slogan IMO,it just means that size if for someone who is really hungry.

Everybody gets hungry so what's the biggie?

Whoever thought of that "HUNGRY MAN" caption is a genius..

Hungry man like everyone who speaks pidgin knows that it simply means a hungry man.. It could also be used as a derogatory term no doubt but as a caption for Indomies Jumbo size, its definitely genuis.. I can imagine people wlaking up to a kiosk and asking for Indomie Hungryman..

Nigerians need to chill the fhcuk out.. Its a marketing gimmick. Its not like they called it 'Nigga ration'.

I don't know why Nigerians arre so insecure, over-sensitive, and touchy about everything. Kai, I never see. Anyone who feels personally offended that the 'hungry man' characterisation fits him perfectly should take the frustration out on the indomie pack. Punch the hell out of it, stamp your feet on it, and then proceed to eat it raw - in true hungry man fashion! Nonsense!

And the regular size is for who? Someone already filled? I mean, we all eat to get filled so whether it's the small size or the extra large size, we are all trying to quench our hunger so I don't see any reason why it should be named 'Hungry Man Size'. It's derogatory IMO.
