So I'm checking out the soup aisle for some casserole ingredients. Lo and behold, a bevy of stock and broth options lay before me. I pick one up. Swanson. No MSG, check. 99% fat free, check. Then I read this:
"Use in your favorite recipes or serve as a piping hot beverage." (italics mine)
People drink this stuff straight? On a cold wintry night, people actually shove aside the Nestle's or the Swiss Miss and grab that carton of Swanson's Chicken Broth to quench their chilled thirst? And enough of them do so to necessitate printing the idea on its very package?
I can't believe this is true. But, let's face it, perhaps nobody else out there cares too much about this strange, atypical recipe. So. Here's the deal. If I get over ten comments to this post, I will call Swanson's Question/Comment Line (1-800-44-BROTH) and ask them about this very issue. Together, we can stop the proliferation of disgusting drink ideas everywhere.
