Carb shock

Probably because they have glucose syrup/sugar and a whole lot of starch in them. Never had one but just looked up the ingredients - yuk!

Celeriac and leek with lots of garlic. Is an unattractive shade of beige but tastes delicious!
 
My base for veg soup is leek,garlic and chilli ,marmite then any above ground veg Bung into pressure cooker or stock pot don't forget water or stock ! Cook for about 10 minutes according to amount Blitz and serve with a swirl of cream and a small sprinkle of turmeric and a few leaves of fresh parsley if you like It is a good start for experiment
