Pretty meh soup, by the way. Not worth the price… but I see the word ‘coconut’ and I can’t resist.

    I’m allergic to poultry. Do you know how many places consider chicken broth vegetarian? (yeah I know about the better than bouillon faux chicken broth. I can eat that I just think their veggie broth tastes better) I can’t/won’t eat soup I don’t make myself anymore just out of self-preservation. I’ll go to a vegan-friendly place though. Thank gods for them. They actually take it seriously (sometimes), and will at least tell you.

    But yeah, my point is folk can have the most bizarre allergies. It’s nice to have everything labeled. Fuck cans that say “spices” or “natural flavors” on them. People need to know.

      I agree that people need to know, but you can be allergic to so many foods. I’m allergic to pomegranate, but I would rarely expect to encounter pomegranate where it wouldn’t normally be.

      I guess the ‘no celery’ thing makes sense, but why would you put mustard in coconut carrot soup in the first place? I kind of feel like they might as well have put ‘no peanuts’ on there too. I’m betting a peanut allergy is far, far, far more common than a mustard allergy.
