There will be a tiny downturn in the sales of condensed "cream of"
soups and jarred mayo. Butter prices will rise slightly. Be assured
this is temporary as the newest mini-fad of decent cooking fades into
memory. Sales of evaporated milk and canned fried onions will
rebound, and good ol' tuna hotdish (with potato chips crumbled on top)
will resume it's rightful (or not) place at the top of the popularity
list, at least in the Upper Midwest of America. To pea, or not to
pea?

How will you know it's due to the movie or the recently discussed
degradation of the soup itself?

I love cooking with wine.
Sometimes I even put it in the food.

It's funny that you used the word, "degradation," because that made me
think of de-GRAY-ation, which is the opposite. The older COM soup
used to be grayer. I remember that from back when I used to eat it.
It got whiter in the "80s. Easy to believe it's gotten whiter still.
Damn, but the COM soup at the restaurant in Eureka Springs was good.
I was not a hot as it should have been when they brought it out, but
taste wise, it was spectacular. Sooo mushroomy.
