Title: Toast and Broccoli soup.
Post by: 8ullfrog on December 09, 2018, 09:24:04 PM
Toast and Broccoli soup. Sucked. The toast was good, and that's a compliment to mssrs black & decker, but the Broccoli soup was poor at best. Not even any broccoli chunks! Just a green somewhat thick liquid. If I'd left it be I feel it would have congealed.

Would have much rather had some tacos.

Update: do not eat this. Even the greasiest of tacos will be more forgiving. This meal is what I would serve hitler. Seemingly inoffensive, secretly, gastric warfare. The Pain!

Was this a shop bought soup? Seems a stretch to be able to buy toast off the shelf.

It sounds like a new rule:  Never eat broccoli soup out of a can.

I've made broccoli quiche that was good.  Never the soup.  I don't think good broccoli soup is impossible, but throwing some flour, msg and chicken stock at a bunch o broccoli (which is what I suspect happened there) ain't a recipe for delicious ness.

My mom eats bags of croutons. I'm no scientist, is that better than eating potato chips? Or Worse?

Assuming they were made with white bread?  Worse.   That makes me feel better because, although I rarely indulge, I love potato chips.
