Stu,
one of my favorite "taste" memories is Lipton Chicken Noodle soup made from the dry mix packet. Can't tell you how many times, growing up, my Mom fixed that when I was feeling puny. I've eaten many a great made from scratch chicken soup, too, but for some reason Lipton has a unique flavor to my tastebuds.
Sure, likely it's nostalgia, but sometimes when nothing else sounds good I can wrestle down Lipton's.
Those popsicles were magical, don't you know!
