Lipton Chicken Noodle Soup
We picked up some free samples of this at a kids function at the local Y recently.
“Kids just CAN’T RESIST those crazy little noodles and tangy yellow broth”
Right.
Check out the ingredients:
“NOODLES (duh), SALT, CHICKEN FAT, HYDROLIZED PLANT PROTEIN, CORN STARCH, CORN SYRUP SOLIDS, HYDROGENATED VEGETABLE OIL (MAY CONTAIN PALM OIL), MONOSODIUM GLUTAMATE, DEHYDRATED MECHANICALLY SEPARATED COOKED CHICKEN (ee-yuw), ONION POWDER, FLABOUR, SPICES, DEHYDRATED PARSLEY, DISODIUM GUANYLATE, DISODIUM INOSINATE, AUTOLYZED YEAST EXTRACT, COLOUR, SEASONING AND TORULA YEAST.”
Guck, gick and more guck, indeed.
In particular: SALT? SALT!!
Am I overreacting to be so bothered by a product marketed chiefly at kids that has SALT as one of the primary ingredients? Makes a change from sugar, I suppose, but still…
Don’t you wish they’d at least come clean and name the vile sludge appropriately: “Lipton Salty Noodles In Fat”. Or “Salt With A Hint Of Chicken”.
I tasted it. My face actually, literally turned inside out. I am not kidding.
Front of the packet says: “Happy Lunch Guaranteed”. Perhaps they could add: “Dehydrated toddlers gagging for juice guaranteed.”
“Peeling your kids down off the ceiling guaranteed”
*phweef*
Gag me with a soup spoon.
