What IS That Thing?

Let's play a game!  Can you guess what this is in the bowl?

No guesses?  Okay, multiple choice:

a. material cleaned from a frat house carpet
b. sludge taken from the Elk River
c. toxic results of high school science experiment
d. vegetable soup

Now let's try process of elimination.  It can't be A because a frat house has never been cleaned.  It can't be B because making fun of those suffering, waterless folks in West Virginia would be mean (paper plates for everyone!).  It can't be C, because the students involved would be getting in the shot for a selfie.  So, D?  Seriously?  Yeah.

I tried Mark Bittman's recipe for roasted vegetable soup. It was a lot of work as the results were, to say the least, not appealing.  The flavor was fine, if a little bland, but the consistency was so unappetizing.  Maybe a little overzealous with the blender?  A little light with the salt>  I don't know, I'm just glad I don't have to eat it again.
