As
a kid Indomie was his best food as a matter of fact it was the major food he
ate. But in as much as he enjoyed eating it there was still something about the
indomie his mother cooked for him that he wasn’t able to understand.
What made him like indomie was the fact that Indomie is always advertised it with a chicken on the food and on the wrapper it also shows that Indomie always has chicken so as a kid it was only reasonable to believe that Indomie comes with a chicken inside it. Whenever he ask his mother about the chicken that normally comes with the Indomie as he sees it in the advert, his mother will always say “you are too small to eat Indomie that has chicken”. He never bought this excuses because he knew that he should probably be of the same age range with those kids they use in the advert so he probably thought his mother was eating the chicken by herself and for that he hated his mother.
One day when the mother came back from the market, she left all the items she bought on the table and ran to ease herself, Bolu noticed that his mum had gone to the toilet and it was the perfect time for him to see what is mother use to do with the chicken inside the Indomie but to his surprise as he opened the Indomie there was nothing there, I mean no chicken and this made him very confuse and sad. As he continue to stare at the Indomie without a chicken, his mum met him, she asked him why he didn’t wait for her to come cook the Indomie for him. After telling his mum why he opened the Indomie and what his intention was, his mother told him the truth that Indomie don’t normally come with chicken saying the advert connote that people could eat Indomie with chicken but promised him that when next he would be eating Indomie, he will eat it with chicken and it will also be like that from now on. Knowing how expensive chicken was at that time he knew his mum will have to break the bank for him to be eating Indomie with chicken everyday so he told his mum not to worry about it saying he just always thought Indomie had it own chicken inside it. He felt betrayed by the food's advert because he believed so much in it only to find out it was just a selling method.

Now
Bolu has grown up and he is now a lawyer and he is ready to sue the food company for
advertising what their product does not have with their product. His case is
simple, why advertise and draw chicken on the wrapper of Indomie when it doesn’t come with its own special chicken. His argument is that this act has
lead many kids using himself as a case study to believe that the food comes with
a chicken and by so doing the kids are been deceive to always want to eat indomie and their mothers are left to make up a reason why they don’t always
get to eat it with chicken or even spend a fortune on chicken so that their kid
could just be happy.
