Naming Help

[MFR1]

Hello All,

We wanted to pick your brains and ask for a little help. I am looking for name for a new range of convenience Italian ambient (shelf stable) ready meals that are ready in 5 minutes, just mix with water and pop into the microwave. Looking for a name that is stands out, is quirky and clever and hoped someone may have any suggestions.

Thanks

El Potto Noodley.

No, Italian ambient

"Nell'aria di Noodle Pentola (Italiano)"

[TheArtfulDogger]

Italian for busy people ?

Oh hang on that's a language course not a main course !

[Robert Poste's Child]

What's Italian for 'nutrient-free'?

Grotti Risotti

Grotti risotti is perfect. Cooked al (false?) dente maybe.

If all else fails

Italians would never eat that kind of stuff.

[Loz]

I don't think they intend to sell them to actual Italians.

MicroMia

[Robert Poste's Child]

They're implying it by marketing food presumably reconstituted to resemble something identifiable as Italian under an Italian name or what would be the point?

[Robert Poste's Child]

Maybe 'Che cazzo?'

[Seabag]

What have you come up with so far?

Short list please

[MrBen]

All incredibly helpful suggestions above for the OP I'm sure...

That said...Alice has it so far.

[Seabag]

No I'm liking Jenny's

Grotti Risotti thing

Hmmm, probably a bit long winded to fit it all on the headline packaging, got anything catchier?...

[MissMadMoo]

More processed package food crap, just what we busy people need....

Since when was pasta a chore to make, jeez.

Alice wins!

[DulwichFox]

MicroMia is good..

... but do we want to Promote or Encourage such a product..

Mix with water ???

Yuk !

For Fox Sake !

[Jennys]

Fasta pasta? But I wouldn't be buying it.

[Earl Aelfheah]

Placing pasta into water and waiting for 3 minutes is tough. How about 'Pasta Pigro'?
