Maybe you're just too stupid to parse or understand "kind of surprising", eh?

It simply occurred to me that the only canned goods found in our house and used
regularly happen to be tomatoes, plus the odd can of baked beans or jellied
cranberry sauce. We're likely to have many more things in jars.

I am surprised that anyone would be using canned broth, since there are so many
other packaging options (e.g., cartons) these days with contents higher in
flavor and lower in sodium. And if you have broth, it takes about ten minutes
to make soup, from opening the carton to eating the result.
