Lipton's soup mix ingredients

[Guest guest]

I am always suspicious of brand names as far as ingredients are concerned. What

ingredients are in Lipton's Onion-Mushroom soup powder. I do not think I have

seen it at the Coop where I shop. Also, is the packaging reccyclable.

Recycling has become a major factor in whether I purchase something these days.

Pour in a cup or so of water, toss to moisten everything, then sprinkle in a

package or 2 of Liptons Onion-Mushroom soup powder, tossing to coat well. I also

threw in some dried mushrooms a friend gave me (homegrown), but that was just

cause I had them handy, and I love mushrooms.

seen it at

the Coop where I shop.

 

I can't remember anything about this product - it used to be the kind of thing

people used

to make those deathly party dips decades ago, but when I googled just not I

found all

kinds of recipes for using Lipton soup mixes.

 

Dunno about ingredients, but PETA lists this soup as being vegan

es

 

and nutritiional facts are to be found, among other places, here:

ONION-MUSHROOM-MIX-DRY.html

 

I note high sodium content (like most packaged things not from a health store or

one's

own kitchen) and some fats of the less healthy kind (again, typical of most

packaged . . .).

Dunno about that either LOL It's difficult, isn't it. We have messed this planet

up so badly

and yet to my knowledge no other planets have offered us refugee status as yet.

Perhaps

they are not looking for Planet-Terra- ists. Nevertheless, most of us try to do

our bit - and

I'm always amazed at new and ingenious ideas people have for recycling or

reusing things

that previously would have been tossed. I suspect this package is either foil

(make a great

travelling ashtray for the selfdestrictive or plastic-lined (a poopbag for baby

chihuahuas?).

 

And with luck, someone here will know how to fake up that mix in the comfot and

privacy

of your own home, saving money, health, and the environment in one magnificent

gesture.

 

Good luck! ;-)

 

Best love to all - and thanks for the recipe idea, Melissa. I love my crockpot

and I love root

vegetables - just have to go easy on all those carbs for slimming purposes.
