Take a look at this video to hear a different pronunciation of Maggi!
Maggi instant noodles have been our go-to snack since forever but did you know that there is more than one way of pronouncing the name? People were amused to hear a different pronunciation of Maggi in one of the advertisements of MasterChef Australia as the chef called it Madge-y instead of Maggi.

I’ve never been so hysterical in my life when I heard that they pronounce it ‘Madge-y’ instead of ‘Mag-ee’. My whole life I’ve been lied to 😂#MasterChefAU #maggi

People are freaking out because Maggi noodles are pronounced Madge-y and I’m freaking out because people didn’t realise Maggi noodles were pronounced Madge-y #MasterChefAU
