Although the winter days are now hopefully behind us, there’s still a risk of contracting coughs and colds, but what do we take to try to relieve the symptoms?

For some it may be cough mixture, cough drops or something similar or how about a nice bowl of soup?

But coming soon you will be able to get your hands on SOUP YOU CAN SUCK drops.

One of the largest US food companies, GENERAL MILLS has just announced a limited-time product – chicken noodle soup-flavoured drops, which the manufacturer claims, taste like broth, savoury veggies, soft egg noodles and a sprinkle of parsley.

The main ingredient of the 20 pack lozenges is a sugar substitute often found in sugar-free treats, as well as chicken meat powder and chicken fat.

The business unit director at the firm asserts that when your unwell there is truly nothing more reassuring than chicken noodle soup, so we thought why stop at the soup bowl?

However a food critic was less than impressed and said, “‘Upon popping the savoury lozenge right in my mouth, I almost immediately ejected it,. I don’t know what I was expecting, but I wasn’t expecting that!’

Maybe you should just close your eyes and swallow.

Leaving human ailments behind, in the second hour, we took a quick look at how cats might look at the world.

In truth the mind of a cat, and the way they look at the world is a truly mysterious thing.

A feline from Plymouth aptly named MISCHIEF, apart from regularly making himself at home in various houses, has allegedly been spotted strolling through a shopping centre, nipping into a vape store perhaps for a quick puff of an e-cigarette, wandering into various pubs, a local betting shop, attending a Slimming World meeting, waltzing into a Year 12 class and, with his eye to the future, the Students’ Union Building at the local university.

He’s broken into the Plymouth naval base – twice, once by hitching a lift on an ASDA van and broken into a car in an effort to steal a McDonald’s burger.

Amazingly for a cat, he even showed up voluntarily at the local vet’s surgery!

Residents of the area stalked by MISCHIEF have apparently set up a Facebook page so they can keep track of his travels and exploits.

For now Mischief has been grounded by his owner for staying out too long.

Well that’s it for me this afternoon but I very much hope you’ll be able to join me tomorrow at this same time for another outing into the unknown,
