Pasta King was a school dinner choice I think it got brought in as a healthly alternative to pizza and burgers.
There was always a rush to get one before they ran out even though it didn’t really taste of much.

I worked in Woolies in mid 00's, which tainted my happy childhood memories of shopping thereThey were a kids paradise! Some of my memories:
The whole back wall was floor to ceiling of every bored game you could imagine! Then rows of toys, from Barbie's, Puppy in my pockets, Polly pockets, baby all gone dolls, sea monkeys - basically all the toys you saw advertised between citv!
Then there was the mysterious 99p aisle (a load of plastic tat) which you could get lucky with on occasion!
Lots of stationery, secret diaries, 'forever friends' themed pencil cases ect. You'd be able to pick up your first 'grown up' berol pen for school here, then a fountain pen and cartridges for when you got to secondary school!
Flicking through the posters that you had no intention of buying, but would choose your favourite (usually a dolphin or Winnie the pooh graphic!)
Later on they were the go-to place for Pokémon cards and ridiculously overpriced facias for your Nokia 3310!
Actually a lot of that was 90s nostalgia lol, but Woolworths will always have a special place in my heart!.
I don't think we ever had them at school, although I have tried them. As others have said, a bit too watery for me.Pasta King was a school dinner choice I think it got brought in as a healthly alternative to pizza and burgers.

I've never heard of Pasta King and now I feel like I need it in my lifeI don't think we ever had them at school, although I have tried them. As others have said, a bit too watery for me.
You could easily recreate it by filling a takeaway coffee cup or any other circular tub with watery pasta- it’s very important it’s watery to make it authentic and then add a thimble of sauce on top- if the sauce covers more than three bits of pasta you’ve added too much.I've never heard of Pasta King and now I feel like I need it in my life
I always took packed lunches as the food looked awful, in 6th form college we had a salad bar which was okay but I remember mainly buying chips for 70p as most of us did (probably ly would coat anout£5nowmy school had pasta king but they would rarely have the sauce, the popular option was pasta with the baked beans and cheese that were there for the jacket potatoes
did anyone actually have good hot meal choices at their secondary school? my school finally improved its options but it was towards the end of year 11 for me so by then it was too late
Chips were 30p when I started secondary school (1997). By the time I left (2004) they were £1.30I always took packed lunches as the food looked awful, in 6th form college we had a salad bar which was okay but I remember mainly buying chips for 70p as most of us did (probably ly would coat anout£5now)
