Campbell's Soup is Mmm Mmm Sucky

As much as it pains me to knock Amy Adams off of my latest post, I just had to rant against this abomination. I saw a commercial for this...this...thing:


Now, this is just dag. First of all, it comes in a container whose shape should only contain one of two things. I pick up something that is shaped like this and put it to my lips, I either want to feel the tingly carbonation of soda pop, or the tingly carbonation of beer. I don't want a mouthful of Oodles of Noodles.

No frigging way am I eating soup out of a damn sippy cup. Just "heat and sip"??? Are you out of your mind??? It's Blended Vegetable Medley for crying out loud!!!!

Not to mention, it's just a total mind-screw to boot. Have you ever ordered a drink in a restuarant and you thought you ordered something else? And when you take a sip of it, it totally throws your body off? Like your body is anticipating tasting Sprite, but instead you get ginger ale and your body reacts like you just downed a pint of ipecac. Strange thing, the brain.

And that's not a world of difference either. Sprite, ginger ale. Big whoop. Now, grab this thing, anticipating a nice mouthful of Molson Export and instead you get cream of broccoli. Real nice.

Thanks, Campbell's, for actually over-complicating soup. SOUP!!!
