You are correct Suzie, that soup is way to bland. Homemade split pea soup is easy make and very cheap.

I'd just add diced ham, carrots and some celery, which is what My Mom did, sure I could buy a bag of dried split peas and the other specified ingredients on the back of the bag, since the recipe is not hard to follow. I just don't like doing any chopping by hand, that's why I used to have a food processor, but that was years ago, at least two moves back.

Season with what you like, like a ham bone.

Or a ham hock, that's what My Mom and I bought, after a bit I'd taken over shopping duties.

Carrots and Celery is optional.

In your version, do whatever you want, My Mom always added both, celery and carrots were scrubbed of any dirt, carrots were peeled and then both ingredients were chopped, I'd still have to chop celery by hand, but carrots I can buy frozen, Mom wasn't too flexible, heck when I switched to a scrubber sponge She said that will never clean Her(now mine) Corning Ware ceramic pans, She liked steel wool, that just left metal in the ceramic, so as I used the scrubber the metal in the pan from the steel wool was slowly going away, now there is no metal there and from what I read something like steel wool should not be used on ceramic, so I did the right thing and Mom was in No Position to argue with Me(I was big enough not to be cowed), as I was getting results and I was washing the dishes, plus cooking, paying the bills, etc, etc.

I've always wondered how they cut all those little peas in half.

Yeah it's not easy to split the pea atom... ;)

The smoke from a cauterizing scalpel is carcinogenic.

Cooked a pot of Butter Beans. With salt pork, chopped onion, garlic powder with course ground parsley and cornbread.

It's a subtle but important semantic difference. This is in the same category as smoking not for probability of causing cancer, but for certainty that they're right about it. The actual cancer risk is much lower, and only if you eat it every day. On the other hand, they're talking about pretty small amounts of it. I think I'll take my chances.

You must fight your bachelor instincts to eat out of pots, standing up, over the sink...

LOL!!!! :-))) Deserving of a chapter in:

Godmother Angela's Cooking Advice For The Young, Single and Clueless

This is a working title. My publisher may have other suggestions down the road...

Fight for the working title :-)

Regarding this:

Everything we eat and drink is bad for us in excess. As soon as we toast bread, we've made it more carcinogenic. As for these meats, they are frequently eaten without much in the way of accompanyiny vegetables. If we do that at every meal, cancer won't be the only possible outcome we face. Processing methods and additives are where we should really be looking in my view, whilst tucking in to Angela's sausage recipe :-)

We have nothing to fear but fear itself. Apart from pain. And maybe humiliation. And obviously death. And failure. But apart from fear, pain and humiliation, failure and the unknown and death - we have nothing to fear. Who’s with me?

Everything we eat and drink is bad for us in excess.

Pretty much.

One of my favorite snacks has always been burnt toast with mustard.
