I happened to notice this at local Food Dog. There was 2 other menus. I forget what. Chicken something, beef hash or something. The packet shown cost 3.59 US. Have'nt tryed it yet. Not a bad price for a bucket worth of soup.

Don't the Wyler soup mixes require the addition of meat as well?

Dammit, you are exactley right. MCI, theres no meat in the thing. Food Dog tricked me again. Damn Damn well, they still carry vienna sausages, cheaper Food Dog brand, made by Armour.

Yeah, and they're dehydrated, not freeze dried. So they'll take a while to rehydrate.
Speaking of tricks, my eyes keep playing tricks on me. I can't seem to read "Food Dog" with out transposing the words and then breaking out into laughter

That kind of stuff will show your age
Wyler's hasn't made the lemonade mix in years.

Sorry, I guess I left that out of my other posting. Yes, they are making sugar free stuff now in the stix and the cup containers. The stuff that I think Dirtbag and I were referring to was the mix that came in a bag (like Kool-Aid) that contained sugar and corn syrup, a favorite of backpackers and campers in days of old.

I saw that stuff at the store today DD, I thought it was a pretty good deal, but it was even cheaper than that, I think $2.59 but on sale for sure.
