Campbell's Soup Rant (angry vanity)
Me | Jan1, 2011 | DJMacWoW

Posted on 01/01/2011 10:36:34 AM PST by DJ MacWoW

My husband bought me some of my favorite soup, Campbell's Cream of Potato. My mouth got all ready and I sipped the first spoon. I spit it back in the bowl. It tasted TERRIBLE! I thought it was spoiled. Nope. Now! With Sea Salt Added! If I wanted sea salt I'd go float in the ocean!

I just discovered that they've done the same to Vegetarian Vegetable. No more Campbell's soup for me. And I wrote them to tell them where they can stick their sea salt! I don't buy Healthy Choice soups because they taste awful. So they are now going to force their idea of healthy on consumers? The left is taking over everything and forcing their ideas on us. I'm really angry. They stick their nose in every aspect of our lives.

I guess I'll just have to make my own.

Health food stores such as Whole Foods carry Brown Cow.

Thank you! I'll look for a health food store!

Yes, I do use bacon grease for frying eggs. No other way to eat them is there? But, I wouldn’t want my pie crust to taste of bacon. LOL

Well, you’d filter it so if anything, there would be just a hint of a mostly salty, hearty flavor. I think with most pies it would be a benefit, actually.

Not enough daylight for three meals anyway. Actually I rarely eat three meals even in summer.

It’s too cold to eat much raw food like salad etc.

I’m hungry. I gotta go cook!

I love Baileys but am not as fond of paying for it.

Same here and I usually buy the cheaper brand which is not as good. The home made isn't exactly Bailey's but I think it's better than the cheaper store bought. I hope you like it!

No. He doesn't know us well enough. But he's been talking to his Dad. They have an extra bedroom. He lives with Mom and her other 3 kids and "step"dad.....that his Dad used to beat up in school. My son threatened to pay a visit and life got a little quieter for grandson. It's been a trip! My oldest has no problem defending his kid with his fists if he has to.

I made it just the other day and it was really, really good. YOu have to put in a lot of dill, and the other spices - well, I rarely measure anything unless it’s a cake or other baked goods or pancakes. Sometimes I dice a carrot into it but I don’t like carrots that way, or toss in some peas towards the end.

Making myself hungry.

Carolan's I think? I agree. The flavor isn't as good and there seems to be a little sediment from the coffee or something. If the homemade isn't exactly Baileys that's OK, it's a heck of a lot cheaper! I have the whisky and vodka so the only expensive thing I'd need is the half and half and you can get that dirt cheap at Trader Joe's even if it is a hippy hangout (don't tell them I'm conservative!)

I hope his life improves. Sounds hard. :-( Sounds as though it’s improving already.

I don’t know where you live, but I’m pretty sure that Publix in my area carries it also.

It’s been tough for him. He met us and after about 15 minutes said “I finally found where I belong. I’ve never fit in before”. Poor kid.

There was a pretty long thread a couple of weeks ago on the joys of real lard. Bacon drippings were somewhat frowned upon since commercial bacon has nitrates. I found some bacon that doesn’t use nitrates at our local health food store. And yes, it’s real pig.

I like the cornbread recipes where a can of creamed corn is added, it’s so moist.

To: left that other site
Remember, the ORIGINAL prohibition was not just on leaven, but on specific grains. They are, of course, those usually leavened, but more importantly, the preparation of UNLEAVENED BREAD appears in one of the "LOT" stories ~ this one Sodom and Gomorrah.

The backbone of the story is the plight of the hapless mother as she attempts to find husbands for her daughters going so far as to let Lot take her and the kids to a city (at least a town of some kind).

Things go bad, and as predicted for thousands of years before, a mother who fails to find husbands for her daughters will turn to stone and the daughters will have to sleep with her husband to have children.

Now that take on the story might not be one you've heard before, but those items are in there FUR SHUR. The fellows inspired to bring forward the ancient stories provide substantial commentary to explain motives, but the "unleavened bread" demonstrates that we are talking about something made of grass ~ probably of the sort eaten by the wandering herds in the ice age. Not everything can be leavened successfully.

It's quite likely that in the most ancient times wheat gluten sensitivity was far more widespread than it is today.

Campbell's ruined it. But there are several recipes in the thread.

And in post 399, Sacajaweau posted "Just went to a Campbell’s soup site. Said the “reformulation” of the soups involved more than just the salt."

They sold their old hens to Campbell's for 10 cents each.

Old hens make the best soup and trying to find a stewing hen in your local mega-mart any more is close to impossible.

Thankfully I have friends who raise chickens. They sell me fresh eggs, young fryers, older broilers and stewing hens.

Chickens are nasty vile birds, but they taste good!
