The snack, which can be made with boiling water, was a fan favourite with shoppers.
It cost around 50p and was available in store and online.
Confused customers have taken to social media to find out where the popular snack had gone.
Writing in a Reddit thread one shopper said: "These are my go to quick food and my local Tesco has none on the shelf and they've disappeared off of the website too.
"I'll be gutted if they've discontinued them."
Another fan replied: "Probably, if you liked them, these stores always stop what people like!
The Sun reached out to Tesco to find out what happened to the savoury snack
The supermarket confirmed the product was no more, adding that it had been replaced with a Chicken flavour that customers could buy.
The news will come as a blow to customers who in the past said it was the only noodles they "enjoy" to eat.
Some customers said Super Noodles make a similar product for a quid, but the upset shopper said they were too dear.
I'm 5'3 and a size 10 - Tesco is killing it with their summer co-ords, my haul was amazing & I got 25% off everything too
Another said Pot Noodles lost the pot chicken champion, could be an alternative and also costs 50p.
It's not the first time that Tesco has axed a popular product.
Shoppers were heartbroken when Tesco cut its own-brand tomato and basil soup from its chilled range.
Tesco stated that it adjusts its soup range throughout the year to reflect seasonal demand.
The supermarket will expand its offering again in the autumn.
Tesco shoppers were also shocked to find the supermarket no longer stocks six-pint cartons of milk.
OTHER DISCONTINUED PRODUCTS
Tesco is not the only supermarket that has shaken up what it sells in stores.
Asda also recently confirmed it has discontinued its store-brand Creamy Peppercorn Sauce.
The Sun revealed that Alpen cereal bars have permanently disappeared from supermarket shelves.
The snack, usually topped with chocolate or yogurt, has been a staple in many Brits kitchen cupboards since the early noughties.
Alpen bars were also loved by many watching what they eat or following a Slimming World or Weight Watchers diet plan, as the treat was low in calories.
Alpen's entire cereal bar range, which includes Alpen Light and Alpen Delight has been discontinued.
However shoppers can continue to buy it's range of muesli, which costs around £3 from major supermarkets.
Kellogg's also recently confirmed it's not bringing back its chocolate flavour Corn Flakes.
