My soup drops were delivered today.
-
From what I remember seeing posted before about them, they are salty. And apparently the flavor is rather bad.
NB: I’ve never tried them, and have no experience with soup… candy…
um.
-
Negative. Regret to inform friend that this shit is, in fact, real.
-
Similarly, Tom Kha has always been my go to cold/hangover cure. It's immediately refreshing and I always feel physically better after eating/drinking it. The spices, ginger, and coconut do some heavy lifting for sure
-
Did you also watch Seth Meyers try them?
-
If there were no abominations such as this, how I ask, would we know paradise?
-
What are the ingredients? I hope it's not too exciting
-
-
There is a hint of sweetness from the isomalt, but overall they are savory.
-
I don't know who that is.
-
No no, they are real and I actually like them.
-
It is in fact strange and I can see how it's not for everyone, but I like them.

I had no idea what isomalt is :https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Isomalt
Isomalt is a sugar substitute, a mixture of the two disaccharide alcohols 1,6-GPS and 1,1-GPM. It is used primarily for its sugar-like physical properties. It has little to no impact on blood sugar levels, and does not stimulate the release of insulin.
The main ingredient is a artificial sugar! Neat.
-
That would be amazing.
-
Yea, it's because it's not nearly as sweet as real sugar but can still act as the proper binder for the "candy"
-
But wouldn't it just taste like cold/lukewarm soup? Sure there are some soups that are served cold or whatever, but it ain't Progresso.
-
No, not quite. It's the same as if you were eating a hard candy, just savory instead of sweet.
-
Just be careful. Sugar alcohols like isomalt can cause stomach issues and diarrhea.
