Good point. I tried a beef and tomato cup of soup today - no useful calories but for a taste test and I fancied it. Tasted too strong ans salty but not foul. There's NO sense of enjoyment in anything though although some taste is very reminiscent of normal. Maybe I enjoy the first few mouthfuls of coffee ...
