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

      Whatever is in hummus from nice restaurants, for me. Something fresh? And I used to make hummus in a restaurant and never had a problem. Most of the ingredients came from a can though.

      Yup - carrots are often used as a natural sweetener so carrot juice ends up in fucking everything.

      Me and mine have various food sensitivities (latex, nightshades, pork). I use an android app “fig” to check things at the grocery store–scan the barcode and Fig tells me who shouldn’t eat it and why. It does smart things like label “spices” as yellow because maybe it’s peppers maybe it’s not. The free version is sufficient for one person. The paid version lets you add more profiles.

      I can imagine. That must rule out most storebought broths (I don’t know about stocks) since mirepoix (celery/onion/carrot) is how you start delicious broth. I can’t eat poultry and they put chicken bouillon on bbq lays potato chips. That was a fun discovery.

        It is hard to find onion-free chicken stock. My dog goes nuts for chicken but is a fussy eater otherwise, so we’re always on the lookout for dog-friendly stock to add to his kibble.

        I don’t eat pig and Applebee’s adds bacon to their Mac and cheese. They list like 8 different cheeses in the description but don’t mention the bacon. Parents didn’t want me to make a fuss so I ate it. That was not fun. (This was years ago, ymmv, I don’t talk to those parents anymore because reasons.)
