Campbell's Soup Rant (angry vanity)

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.

Old varieties, new varieties... Mean vile nasty critters. And they bite. Or peck. And they really like the taste of the kids who come to feed them, collect the eggs and clean their nasty poop up.

Ducks are much nicer.

I trained the ducks to line up for feeding and they would wait in the pen while I collected the eggs and cleaned up the joint. Then when I tapped three times on the door they would file in.

I always felt a little sad eating duck. Chickens not so much.

You are doing them a favor. You are also doing their keeper a favor. I figure that they have taken enough bites out of me that frying them up is justice.

I thought they were HQ’d in NY State. Anyway, if you ever see one, just drop in and check it out. A very pleasant venture, most likely.

[DJ MacWoW]

With Javas even the roosters are better tempered. They’re the chickens everybody had until the 1900’s when they started mass producing for sale.

Oh, I just clicked through to the page and saw the picture of the pail in the upper left. It says “25 lbs” and shows the price at $12-25 but if you click it that’s not what’s at that link. I just didn’t look into it deep enough.

Well then, here is some of the non-hydrogenated.

This was the thread.
Make Your Own Lard (Believe it or not, it’s good for you)

[ladyvet]

Yeah, that’s it. They charge 30.00 for the lard and 15.00 to ship it. Know a pig farmer?

[Snoopers-868th]

I guess I would have to say I most likely used the hydrogenated lard. I used Farmer Peets until I could no longer find it then I bought Armour until the grocer quit carrying it. Nothing tastes as good as deep frying using lard. I use peanut oil now but sure miss the lard.

I guess non-hydrogenated or hydrogenated I don’t know the difference. Probably never tasted the non version. LOL

[Still Thinking]

Your link didn't work, LV, so I looked it up and here it is:

Make Your Own Lard (Believe it or not, it’s good for you)

[Snoopers-868th]

No, but I might be able to get it from the butchering shop that butchers local stock. It doesn’t look like a big deal to render it. Just wonder if it would smell up the house for days?

[Mears]

Funny.

I hope you saw “Gran Torino”.

[Snoopers-868th]

Thank you for the link to the lard thread.

The left has held Campbell Soups and its hometown of Camden, NJ for half a century. Just open a can of their rotting offal or visit the town.

[TigersEye]

So, first we scrub you with sugar then with salt and finally baste you with honey!?! Would you be better deep fried or baked? LOL ;^P

[maine-iac7]

That's exactly what I do - but, as I live alone - I get a good four meals off the chicken before making the broth - and then a good 6 bowls of soup - VERY economical and time saving - cook two times - get many meals

[sheana]

I love Bear Creeks soups. They are absolutely great for dinner soups. I use the potato as a base for clam chowder...bacon, celery, onions, lg can of clams and a pkg of soup. Yum!

Homemade Coffee Liqueur....Kahlua

This isn't an exact replica of the original, but it will be pretty close. Not as thick as Kahlua

½ cup of instant coffee (Not decaffeinated!!!!!)

1 1/2 cup of sugar

2 cup of water

2 Tbls vanilla extract (imitation is fine)

1 750 ml (26 oz…a fifth) bottle of generic vodka.(You can use whatever proof you want)

Mix the coffee the sugar, the water and the vanilla together in a saucepan and bring to a simmer, stirring to dissolve the sugar. Let it all simmer together for about 10 minutes before removing from the heat.

You want to have about 3 cups of coffee "syrup" at this point. Measure, and if you’re short, add a bit of water in to top it off.

Mix in the entire bottle of vodka (40% alcohol) Store in clean bottles (old wine bottles or old liq bottles work best. Just make sure to sterilize them by rinsing them out in boiling water first.) The liqueur is drinkable immediately, but will get far better after about a month of aging. Serve as a substitute for Kahlua in cocktails such as the mudslide, in Mexican coffees or Monte Cristo coffees or enjoy straight up over ice cubes. This does not need to be refrigerated. Its great mixed with coffee ice cream in the blender.

RUM BALLS

Simple to make & the longer they sit in a dark cool place the better.

I cup crushed Vanilla wafer cookies ( crumbs)

1 cup confectioner's sugar

2 tablespoons light karo syrup

1/2 glass dark rum

Here is the hard part, I keep adding rum if the crumbs seem too dry. Mix together into balls & roll in some confectioner's sugar & store. You can add a 1/2 cup of chopped nuts but I never do. I forget where I put them & find them weeks later & they are wonderful. Just store them in airtight container. I wrap wax paper around them 1st.

[pandoraou812]

Umm no. First you scub with salt then you rinse off & coat yourself with honey for 5 min & then shower off. Skin feels great. I use Kosher salt but Dead Sea salt is better. Honey makes a great face mask & is good to put on wounds too.
