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.

Mustard is an amazing spice to use (along with others) when roasting carrots. I'm sure mustard (as long as you're not allergic) would be a valuable addition to a carrot soup. OP commented the soup was meh. It probably was lacking in spices.

[-] FlyingSquid@lemmy.world 2 points 2 months ago

I am the OP and it was, indeed, lacking in spices. But I would also not want to add the flavor of mustard to the flavor of coconut.

Although I will say that my biggest complaint was that it could have had more coconut flavor.
