    Dunking ANYTHING in ANYTHING is HIGHLY ILLEGAL and very disgusting.
    Only exception might be dipping french fries in ketchup - but not too much and don't make a mess.

    Sause and gravy should in general be banned!

    Sometimes it's to lay down some fog to hide their farts or bad BO.

    If Wacko Jacko hadn't been drugged up so much I think he'd have invented a personal oxygen suit which would have been ideal in these scenarios. Fate can be a bitch sometimes.

    One of my favourite cheap student meals was pot noodle over a portion of chips, as student priorities are beer before food.

    At 'work' I don't think it's acceptable to eat any smelly food in an open office.

    Most memorable incident was someone microwaving tinned octopus (IIRC, whatever it was it was fish based and absolutely stank the office out) and a pregnant girl sat nearby complaining it was making her sick.

    Next thing she's eating something equally disgusting because she had cravings. I had suspicions she microwaved the octopus and tried covering her tracks by complaining when others did. Women are devious.

    I would say kitchen. The work sufaces are easier to wipe down and you run less risk of getting 'noodle juice' all over your keyboard.

    The pot noodle is acceptable where ever suits you, but the accompanying activities are better performed in trap 2 unless you are alone in the office.
