If you're desperate, Swanson's low-salt no MSG chicken broth's not a bad
starting point. Put 10 cans of it into a pot, add diced carrots, sliced
celery and a shitload of pepper. Simmer the veggies. Have two shots of
whiskey. Taste the soup, adjust seasoning, throw in some little noodles that
cook in 3 minutes. Eat.
