I’ve always remembered a joke Craig Kilborn told on the first version of The Daily Show when a news story somehow involved Andy Warhol’s famous Campbell’s Soup Cans paintings:
Warhol’s Campbell’s Soup Cans were a brilliant parody of art, in the same way that Campbell’s Soup is a brilliant parody of food.
Fucking christ, I was hoping this was a joke. Nope, fucking scalped soup on eBay. I hope scalpers stub the same toe every morning. Scalping is not a job, scalping is not part of the process, scalping just makes everything worse for everyone.
Landlordism is scalping houses.
This is the best take I’ve seen in a while, and I plan to quote it often.
They have entire subs with videos showing these grown-ass losers get into fights trying to grab Pokemon packs as soon as they drop at Costco.
(including real estate scalpers, aka landlords)
Which chicken-based Pokemon is the soup made from? ಠ_ಠ
I hope torchic. I want the spicy.
Does Frozen contain bits of Anna and Elsa simmered in a broth made from a melted Olaf? (͡o‿O͡)
Nah it’s just Sven meat.
Well now I don’t want it anymore.
I hope so, I paid a premium for it and want the real experience!
How many are there?
Gotts catch all the minestrone I guess.
I’ve had frozen soup but not from a can
Huh, I’ve never heard of frozen soup you can buy
In the UK it’s either tinned (basically Heinz or Baxter’s, people don’t really buy Campbell’s here) or increasingly more likely a fridge soup from a plastic tub or a carton.
I pretty much always go for the fridge soups these days, but (probably due to nostalgia) some days all you want is a tin of Heinz tomato soup
I know Apetit makes frozen soups, seems there’s a few different soups they make but I mostly know them from the frozen spinach soup. The soups come in cartons
Soup comes from ape tits?
Sadly they don’t seem to trade in the UK and a bit of a Google has led me to believe it’s quite a niche thing here!
Gap in the market there for someone I reckon, though maybe we have smaller freezers on average here or something that means it’s less likely to succeed.
At any rate, I know I’d definitely keep a soup in the freezer for an easy meal if I could readily get them
(Yes I realise there’s nothing stopping me putting a fridge soup in the freezer, maybe I do that)
Well with canned soup you get two flavors, aluminum and aluminium.
Seriously I don’t like canned soup, they all have an aftertaste, frozen actually sounds genius to me though? I’ve frozen my own soup before but I don’t recall ever seeing frozen soup in US stores.
Are the soup cans aluminium where you are? Here they’re steel (and plastic-lined).
Actually yeah, ours are also steel and plastic, I realize now that I got my joke mixed up with soda cans.
Seriously if I had to guess I’d say that the weird flavor in store-bought canned goods is probably some preservative.
I had to do a huge double take after reading this whole thread. This comment is supposed to be a joke, right? Wtf Lemmy
I mean it’s a joke about Frozen but it’s also true in a literal way, I’ve had frozen soup but it was from a carton, not a can
I’ve frozen homemade soup and reheated it later.
