I'm so old I Remember when:

It actually sounds pretty good.

I agree. But then I remember the school version and I move swiftly on to cook something else!

I think it is broth. Bouillon is broth-like.

But still weird! We get nothing like that in US vending machines, just potato chips, cookies, chocolate bars, and cold canned or bottled drinks.

Really? We used to have coffee machines that also did the soup thing. Chicken Noodle, similar to Cup-A-Soup.

I never even knew about coffee machines until I lived overseas.

And I'm not old enough to remember Automats!

Does anyone remember these? Remember the next line, and what they were for?

My mother and your mother
Were out hanging clothes.
My mother punched your mother
Right in the nose.
(next lines....)

One potato, two potato,
Three potato, four.
Five potato, six potato
(next line....)

What color of blood was it?
Then the person getting their fortune done says a color. The one with the folded paper fortune teller will spell it out. And when it stops, choose a number and get an answer.

I have heard of the potato part, but nothing more.

Ah! We used it for choosing who was "it."
