I buy Diced Green Chilis for Taco Soup
and prepare that soup for dinner today,
and serve it up on top of corn chips, topped with shredded cheese and sour cream
and Dash says, “Mom, what did you add to the soup? You added something didn’t you? It’s burning my throat!”
I, of course, replied, “I didn’t do anything different. It must just be that I used a hotter pepper in the Mexican Stewed Tomatoes.”
But, then, thinking to myself, “I wonder …” as I check the empty can in the drain (because I recycle cans, it’s been washed and is drying in the dish drain).
The can is labeled … Diced Jalapenos. Such a small difference in wording.
Everyone got a second, and some a third, dollop of sour cream on their Taco Soup. Bless their little hearts, they ate it – well, most of it – anyway!
That which doesn't kill them...
ReplyDeleteHappy Labor Day!

ReplyDeleteI've done the same thing in the past.....I always look now, that's for sure!
