Best cheese soup [More:]Seriously, this is so easy you'll puke. Mrs. tr33, the woman whose husband I am, swears it's one of the best soups ever.

You'll need a crockpot.

Empty two cans of (low-sodium) cream of celery soup into the crockpot.

Dig the creamy lumps. Stir them, a bit.

Add one soup can of soymilk (or a little more, I find a little more keeps it from sticking and makes it a little more soupy, or soupish).

Stir, and add a teaspoon of vegetarian worcestershire sauce. Stir some more. Dig it.

Cube 8 oz. of cheddar, the sharper the groovier. Drop the cubes into the crock, one at a time, thanking each cube for its cheesiness.

Crock it for 4-6 hours, stirring sometimes to keep it from sticking. The cubes should melt into little cubey gooey cheesy goodnesses.

Serve 2 hungry stoners, maybe 4 normal people, especially if you provide bread. If so, pass the bread hunk around the table, and each person should tear off a chunk and indicate why they are thankful for the others around the table.

Drop one block of cheese into bowl. Microwave for three minutes. Serve.

Two questions:

The soup makes you puke?

Why use soy milk if you're using real cheese (which I'll assume you are since you didn't specify)? Is it's boiling point higher or does mix better? Just curious.


On preview: sits down beside pie.

it's = its

The mere discussion of cheesy goodness is causing my synapses to misfire.

And do you have to use soy milk? Can you use real milk instead?

Man, I need to buy a crockpot!

The ease with which it comes together makes you puke. But just a phrase, my deal Frisbee Girl.

We just don't drink, or buy, cow's milk. I'm sure it sould substitute nicely, though I do find soymilk is a little more creamy for cooking. But "real" milk was what the original recipe calls for, and of course you can use non-veg worcestshire sauce too!

But no puking from the soup, oh no.

You know what's really good? Velveeta. And it makes the best soup if you don't care about how it tastes really. Plus if you forget to wrap it up and instead leave it on the counter then go on a trip for like two weeks then come home, do you find a moldy lump that would make France swoon? You do not! You find Velveeta! And you can fry it up.

God Bless Velveeta.

The other soup sounds good though.

This confused me for a moment (it doesn't take much).

The soup makes me regret recently giving away my crockpot. Also, my family history of heart disease.

amro, it's a nod to David Quammen, who once used such a phrase in an essay about sea cucumbers. But I like the way it turns the possessive nature of "my wife" on its head.

Oh, and soup's on! So anyone in the central Illinois area call now for reservations.

I love soup. I love cheese. I do not love celery. In any form. It is teh cilantro of chewyworld.

I wonder if you could use another kind of soup? Cream of chicken?
