Some people are very stupid to call human. To some people, so that advert by indomie is good eh? After all we all feel hungry eh? Am ashamed of all these anticlockwise thinkers in Nairaland. Tell me, how do you expect me to go inside a shop where you have many people sitting there and tell the shop owner to give me "hungry man" size? Na waoh. Some people should just think before typing. 1 Like |

The ad is catchy in a homourous way of course but to brand a product a 'hungry man size' can put off customers especially branding it on the pack is the low low of advertising. better still make it an alias. |

medjai: 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.I really don't have the time to go back and forth especially over NOTHING. If you think its derogatory then go sue the makers of indomie or better still take out the anger on yourself by slapping yourself or slamming your head against a wall and just for the record,no matter what you do,the name stays ![]() |

Same way Star expects you to walk into a gathering of suits and gentlemen and ask the waiter for a bottle of "Shine Shine bobo".. Same way you are shopping in mega plaza and ask how much is "Baba Blue". Same way a child will walk to a store and ask for "Our milk".. No biggie sir. |

Personally speaking, i love indomie but when i saw the advert, i was like.. This ain't right, why "hungry man". It's like saying everybody who buys that park are hungry and food-minded people. SMH |

Clemzy16: Personally speaking, i love indomie but when i saw the advert, i was like.. This ain't right, why "hungry man". It's like saying everybody who buys that park are hungry and food-minded people. SMH Not really.. It just means that who ever buys the big packet of noodles instead of the regular size, must really be hungry. And last time I checked, being hungry is a natural feeling we all get daily and is not something to be ashamed of. |

Wot a name*gosh* 2 absurd |
Re: Why "Hungry Man" On Indomie Pack? by mylunch: 5:25pm On Aug 06, 2012 |
I don't see it as ridiculous,cause it says hungry MAN,not hungry MEN,if it had the latter,i would have said it refers to all Nigerians as hungry people.But if most consumers finds it offensive,then yes the company has consider another slogan,we are the reason they stay in business,we are the buyers of the product. |

dapo338: 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? Why must it annoy you? Truly you are a hungry man. |

Re: Why "Hungry Man" On Indomie Pack? by lordZOUGA(m): 5:34pm On Aug 06, 2012 |
we all know that it's a marketing gimmick but its a bad one... To show you it was specifically meant to be demeaning, they had other indomine products and none of them had hunger attached to the name... I mean its not as if the "Super Pack" ain't sizeable. Though it might not cause me to stop eating indomine, I might choose not to buy "hungry man" cos of the name... There is nothing "Nigerian Specific" about this issue, you jus have to hate being called a hungry man... |
Re: Why "Hungry Man" On Indomie Pack? by ifihearam: 5:36pm On Aug 06, 2012 |
freecocoa: There is nothing wrong with the slogan IMO,it just means that size if for someone who is really hungry. Anything u talk correct. Carry go |

Re: Why "Hungry Man" On Indomie Pack? by manny4life(m): 5:42pm On Aug 06, 2012 |
At times it's not the name that matters, but the context which it was used. Hungry man pack is a lil way off track, if you had same size and you label one "Hungry man pack" and the other "jumbo size", which do you think people will patronize. That word "hungry man" will be perceived and interpreted wrongly in most people's thought. Again, this is my own, they should come up with different names because names matter during marketing. |

D name wil attract mor market/sale |
Re: Why "Hungry Man" On Indomie Pack? by sentoms: 5:59pm On Aug 06, 2012 |
Some people belive indomie can't help overcome their hunger. I think that why they use d "Hungry man". Meaning no matter how big ur food tank(stomach) is, with 1 or 2, 3,4 You should be filled up. |
Re: Why "Hungry Man" On Indomie Pack? by murtalaa(m): 6:03pm On Aug 06, 2012 |
I'm African, so naturally, i hate hunger and anything that depicts me as being in perpetual hunger. Therefore, i could never be caught buyin indomie "hungry man" |

Re: Why "Hungry Man" On Indomie Pack? by ayurdavid: 7:21pm On Aug 06, 2012 |
I dont think there‘s any big deal about the name. It‘s not intended to portray the country negatively i believe. |
