Soup Du Jour

"Had I not broadened my menu, I never could have developed Good Taste" 
                                                                                

With all these ingredients, that have simmered in this soup
Has made some tasty dishes, from caviar to poop
With chefs from 'round the world, and recipes sublime 
Has made their kind of poetry, a favorite meal of mine  



PS: the part mentioning the poop (pooh) is attributed mainly to Jan Allison's contributions in the Soup, You've Got to Love Her !

Jerry, this one fits the contest rule to relate your poem to PS members better than any of the rest I've read so far.

You get N/A's because you're eating alphabet soup. Homemade is better or be like me, now I eat chili. Great humor as always Jerry. Good luck!!
