Hip-Hop Hunger -- A square meal and a raw deal

Some years ago, not too far in the past, the Campbell's Soup Company was 'influenced' to provide a more substantial canned soup. The new soups are marketed with 'Chunky' and 'Select' appellations and feature meat machine-cut into squares. Other soup companies followed the example and frozen plastic-bagged meals also feature the stamped-out meat.

Truly, it has become imperative to determine whether the death rate among such soup afficionados has increased, perhaps with formal academic study, as the paranoia rate among farm animals has necessarily increased. Are more humans smeared over the highways or flipped into bodies of water since the company changed their fare from the predominantly condensed soup line that contains shreds and bits of meat and vegetables -- a change to ready-to-eat canned soups sold in a variety of containers with large squares of meats and veggies?

Campbell has most recently provided a condensed form of lentil soup that is very similar to the Progresso brand ready-to-eat lentil soup with a comparable iron mineral content.

Hurrah!
