Mmm, dice soup. I have an awesome recipie for that, but nobody here but me could eat it without dying.

I'm sure you're well aware of the dangers of eating dice. <_>

Nonsense, you could eat dice soup, you just have to have a stomach and intestines made of steel that can also handle the acid you wash down after your meal to dissolve the dice. Happy diarrhea btw.

:wacko:

I remember eating those. I loved the vanilla.

The guy who abolished it as a flavor needs to go die. :disapprove:

I think you are mistaken (http://www.dippindots.com/ice-cream-cups/ice-cream/vanilla), good sir.
I've only had dippin' dots once, but I would definitely repeat the experience.

Every year we would go to Wild Waves, and there was a stand that sold them there. They are delicious and fun to eat. We would sometimes go to Wild Waves just to eat Dippin' Dots.

This year I plan to go back. I'll bring some for you guys.

At Wild Waves, we would buy 'em on really sunny days, then leave them to melt while we went off and did something fun.
Then when we came back, they weren't totally melted but really soft and easy on your mouth. n.n

Canned soup is simpler then cube soup.

TalHex
Jun 25, 2008, 09:43 PM
except that canned soup is a liquid while cubed soup is a solid... and a cube...

I still vote for fugly cube soup!! =D

TalHex

if you make soup from a fugly cube you make fugly soup, fugly soup is like fugly milk, not something you want to ingest... but if you insist on eating the fugly soup be my guest...

I think you're supposed to add something else to the chicken broth. Melt the cube in a saucepan instead and add some veggies. Maybe some of that tiny pasta too.

Erm, add some freshly chopped garlic too.

TalHex

*facepalm* you just put the cube in boiling water, if your going to be a communist and add vegetables then you cook saute them and put them in the soup after its done

You don't have to do that to the veggies at all. I never do when I make curry. I just drop them in the pot. Pan-sauteeeeeing them first just makes them all limp and scraggly when you add them. Bunch of extra oil you don't need, as well.

There's nothing fucking simpler then pouring a can of soup into a pot and heating it. No water to boil. No packages to open. You just open a can and dump it in.

god forbid you have to open a can/push buttons on the microwave. :roll:

Fuck microwaves. If I wanted to eat undercooked shit due to laziness, I'd eat undercooked shit due to laziness. If I wanted to take an extra 5 minutes of waiting, not cooking, time, I'd make a can of soup. It's incredibly simple and it tastes better. Shit, you can buy fucking broth in a CAN. Why would you want a fucking cube?

It's easier to keep several broth cubes than several cans/packages of Swanson/whatever broth.

But how is it an improvement if the can still tastes better.

Only a goat would say a can tastes better.

I'll tell the goat sucker the goat did not say "go suck on a lemon". Or something.

I live in Redmond at the moment, but I had some years in the Tacoma/Puyallup area as well.
Don't they have 5th grade end of the year events out there or something? I seem to recall having a trip like that once. Maybe it was 8th grade, hell if I can remember.
