Is Maggi capsule real? Can you now prepare noodles in 30 seconds using mini pill? Here's the truth

Viral Instagram videos claiming that a Maggi capsule can cook noodles in 30 seconds are completely fake and AI-generated. Maggi India debunked the trend, confirming no such product exists. While the capsule is a hoax, a new cheesy Maggi recipe is trending online, offering fans a rich, creamy twist on the classic noodles.
Maggi's two-minute noodles are like the friend who say 'I'm on the way' and are always late. Everyone knows that despite being endorsed as two-minute noodles, between boiling water, mixing masala and cooking the noodles, it takes at least seven to 10 minutes. Yet, it's still fast enough to save the day when hunger hits at 2 am. But can Maggi now be prepared in 30 seconds for real using the new mini capsule? If you have also seen the Instagram reels, here's debunking the viral videos.
Maggi capsules are going viral on Instagram after a couple of content creators endorsed them. The video posted by Instagram user @adityasoni01 has garnered about 27 million views in just 17 hours. The video shows him using a "mini Maggi pill capsule" that he adds to boiling water. In 30 seconds, the pill releases Maggi masala and noodles and instantly prepares the noodles. He can be seen complimenting the new product by the brand.
A similar video has been posted by another Instagram user @mehaklalwaniart. She captioned the video, "Viral Maggi Capsule" and reveals that she bought it from BlinkIt. She uses another pill and dips it into boiling water and instantly prepares the noodles with it. Her video has 6 millions views.
Turns out both the videos are fake and generated using AI. Maggi India also confirmed the same as it posted a comment reading "Pls don't celebrate April Fool's day in other months" under both the video. Several people in the comments also debunked the claim.
After some disgusting viral Maggi trends - that ranged from chocolate Maggi to Jelly Maggie - now another recipe is going viral on Instagram which looks worth trying. If you love cheese, this one is for you.
To cook the viral cheesy Maggi, take cook one package with its tastemaker in just enough water so it stays slightly saucy but not watery. Now, in a pan melt small cube of butter, add two cheese slices, a spoon of fresh cream, and a splash of milk, then whisk into a smooth cheesy sauce. Toss the cooked Maggie and mix it well. You can add mayo if you want and season it with chilly flakes and oregano. What's your favourite Maggi recipe?
