What were the names of the soups on the wall of the Soup Nazi's kitchen?
All of them? God, there were probably 10-12. Let’s see…
Mulligatawny
Jambalaya
Mushroom Barley
Crab Bisque
Split Pea
French Onion
That’s all I can do. I do remember a small being not that much cheaper than the large and the large being a better value. Like small at $1.99 and large $2.50 or something like that.

To this day, that episode is the only place I’ve ever seen mulligatawny mentioned. I’ve never seen it on a menu or anything. I have no idea what it is. Sounds like some old New England-type thing you’d find on the coast.

Same here. I'd love to order it sometime because it's fun to say.
I used to stop at a soup place in ny in the west 80s quite often and they had a good one..I cant remember the name but I know they closed years ago..its good stuff..the apples were always a nice touch

I have a visceral reaction to advertising and promotion. There's just something about salesmanship that grates on me on a very base level and I react very negatively towards it. I want those people to suffer and I want their enterprises to fail.
