I've been taking a bit of a break this month on the cooking front--well, all fronts thanks to the bronchitis episode--but I thought that I'd allow a few processed foods this month just to give myself a bit of a cooking vacation. Yesterday I had a dentist appointment in the early afternoon, and I thought it would be a good day to try one of the Bear Creek soup mixes.
Until now, we've just experienced processed foods being disappointing or too salty--this time, however, we both thought it was just BAD. In spite of cooking it according to directions, I had little blobs of flavor powder that just wouldn't dissolve, and the whole thing tasted like we were eating some sort of flavor powder. I was stunned, as this was a soup I actually liked previous to our Year of No Processed foods. I did not expect our tastes to change that completely.
Yet another reason to continue eating unprocessed food, but the idea of just taking minutes to make something was pretty tempting........
