   Range style means that the noodles and clams were allowed to roam free before they were rounded up, clocked in the head and stuffed into a tiny styrafoam cup…of course in a most humanitarian way.

   no…so-very-wrong. But at least they didn’t add the evil tomatoes to it.

   Noodles? Gah! Sacrilege! Even without the evil tomatoes (though I agree with jo’s assessment there).

   Karan’s description sounds a little like the recipe for ‘Crunchy Frog’ dontcha think?

   Leave the bones in, of course.

   To me it’s not so much the idea of noodles in chowder as it is whatever processed freeze-dried hell must constitute the powder that becomes the “soup”, and I *do* mean ” “.

   I used to have the Fantastic Foods or Nile Spice soup cups for lunch, and the Fantastic Foods corn chowder wasn’t bad. But the idea of freeze-dried clams…? I’m sorry, as much as I like clams (steamed clams, fried clams, clam cakes, clam fritters, clam chowder, clams on the half shell, clamartini, etc.), the idea of freeze-dried clam bits makes me wince. It really shouldn’t, considering all the other freeze-dried and other ways we eat foods known and unknown all the time. But that, I suppose, is your point. So I’ll not be having the Cup Noodle Range Style New England Clam Chowder for lunch, I guess.
