Sit down. Back to the chair and feet flat on the floor? My
liquid is a can of cream of mushroom soup and a bit over a
1/2 stick of melted butter.

Even though the cheese and soup have salt in them I do add
about a 1/2 teaspoon to the mixture.

I Googled (gotta love it's now a verb) and noted some recipes called for
cream of chicken soup. Others, cream of mushroom. IIRC I used cream of
chicken when I made it. I don't recall adding nearly that much butter!

I have no reason to think the man lied to me. He didn't say "I heard
about a guy who heard from another guy..." He said he witnessed it
himself while he worked there. Whatever. The one time I tried Wendy's
chili I was underwhelmed.

1) I was already sitting
2) I already had a can of c of m in the house (shhhh)
Timing -- in oven until everything is bubbly. . .

Tonight My leftover rotisserie chicken will become chicken enchiladas
mostly because I have cilantro that needs to be used and I have no
broccoli. I use sour cream in the chicken enchiladas because I always
have sour cream and I can't imagine doing chicken enchiladas with
cream of mushroom soup no matter what campbells says.
i bought my first can of cream of chicken soup the other week because
that is what the recipe for King Ranch casserole called for. I wanted
to try the casserole because it is apparently the "hot dish" of Texas.
I won't make that again. We didn't care for it.
Thanks for the tips Joan

Correct Steve. They do not use meat dropped on the floor unless an
abberant employee does it, and the FIRE that employee immediately if so.

Okay, so you both claim the man I knew was lying. I don't know any
reason why he would do so. This would have been around 1993 when the
only internet urban legend I recall had to do with a Neiman Marcus
chocolate chip cookie recipe. The man I knew had no reason to lie about
what he saw happen when he worked at Wendy's.

Actually, if you do use the "cream of" canned soups, the equal mix of
cream of mushroom AND cream of chicken is the best mix, imo.

You're pretty brave to claim that here. I've often mentioned cream of

If it is true it's probably just from the one place he worked at.
Franchises are owned by many and quality from one can vastly differ from
another one. Using dropped or old meat is certainly not Wendy's policy.

I think he's referring to a combination Campbell's cream of chicken &
mushroom soup. They may have made something like that at one time.

THats complete BULL. THey do not get charged for dropping food and
never have been.

I working in Fast Food from 1975-1983 (college years) and NEVER saw
anyone drop food on the floor and put it back into edible serving food,
other than an unpeeled onion escape, then get peeled (which is ok since
the skin is removed in peeling).

Where the heck do you dream this stuff up as a common practice?

It's been years since I bought cream-of soups but my favorite was
always cream of celery.

I don't think so, Carol. I didn't hear this as rumor online. I know
this person. I've known him for years. How many times do I have to say
it's not some BS I read on the internet?

Why would he need to check to see how gullible I am? I'm not talking
about some online chat friend. I'm talking about someone I've known in
person since the 1990's.

Why can't it be true? I knew someone who worked in a snackbar and she
said they used to spit into the hot deep-frying fat.

Belive what you wil then, but don't be shocked if you are getting some
reaction that your 'friend' was blowing smoke at you.

What psychic powers do you possess to decide over the internet that a)
what the friend said wasn't true and b) that it's not a friend but a
'friend'?

Logically there's no way enough burgers get dropped on the floor in a
year to make a small pot of chili... I'll believe they salvage broken
burgers and when there are too many to sell in a reasonable period of
time as they precook burgers, those I believe go into the chili pot...
thats why burger joints even have a chili pot. I don't believe that
very many burgers hit the floor, I'll believe maybe one a month,
possibly, and then it goes into the trash... that mystery meat
purchased in such high volume costs mere pennies... those are open
kitchens, too many observers. With how those burgers are cooked it's
not really possible for them to fall on the floor, only way is if
someone purposely slams one onto the floor.

Now if you're talking regular restaurant kitchens with closed doors,
then I KNOW all manner of destruction occurs regularly... and the more
high end the more devastation.
