With the Food Safety and Drug Administration (FDA) in Uttar Pradesh ordering Nestle India to recall a batch of Maggi noodles from shops across the country, the situation has now reached crisis proportions. Nearly everybody has been affected by this tragedy that threatens to overwhelm us all. But here are ten truly scary outcomes to this whole Maggi ban.
1. Many people will have to strike cooking off their list of skills. Marriages may fall apart.

2. A black market trade in Maggi may now begin, started by hoarders. Like tickets sold in black outside a cinema theatre, these may be sold outside supermarkets. But wait, did I say scary?
3. For working mothers, this is a prospect that is twice as scary as their nanny quitting.
4. Even stay at home moms will now have to really scratch their heads to make an afternoon snack that doesn’t contain Maggi. Maggi rolls, Maggi cutlets, Maggi potato rolls, Maggi burgers…they will all have to go. Instead now it will be real vegetables like beetroot and carrot used. Yuck!

5. Campus life will never be the same again! Hostel inmates will now have to begin eating canteen food (arggh!)
6. When you’re down with a bad cold and your throat is sore and croaky, you may crave a bowl of steaming hot Maggi (not noodles) big time. But from now on, you better compromise and go in for toast.

7. There will be a cross border Maggi traffic soon. Just like the way we go to other states and countries for booze during prohibition, families will now take weekend vacations to Malaysia or Sri Lanka to experience Maggi again!
8. You will have to look for a new dietary plan. Your dietary plan earlier may have been Maggi chicken noodles for breakfast, masala noodles for lunch and cup noodles for dinner and many bachelors will vouch for this. Now all this will change.

9. Earlier, if you wanted to eat noodles there were two categories available – Maggi and Chinese. Now there is only Chinese.
10. Without any meri-wali Maggi stories to tell, future generations will grow up deprived.
