Hehe. I felt the same when I was a kid. Then somehow a box of the
darned stuff found it's way into my house, and I tried it with sauteed
onion, garlic, celery carrots, broccoli and tofu. Plenty of chicken
broth.

I don't know what my mother did to it, but this stuff was good. Maybe
because I use salt?....
