I just got to wonder. We're all trying to trade it & I don't see anyone taking us up on it. I still have 6 packets to trade but I'm guessing they will end up in the garbage. I don't think anyone out there likes minestrone. If I'm wrong let me know.
I do like the Minestrone but since it has to be prepared in advance or else you break a tooth it is a pain. I prefer soup when it is cold and since it has been unseasonably warm I haven't been eating it, hence I have 3 boxes sitting in my closet gathering dust. Ah well. I like it with one of the fast soups added in for some more flavor, some msdash, and chopped celery if I am really motivated. It makes it eatable.
