Hey, Bud.

the only thing i can think they are talking about bullion cubes. you get them in the soup aisle at the grocery store.

 

[Wetanut]

Yeah. I've never heard of it so I googled it. Nothing.
Am wondering if she means beef or chicken bouillon in granule form (maybe "crystal" is a regional term for "granules")?

 

[Blackhole]

Probably what some call OXO cubes...

They're like boullion cubes only in granules. I buy the Wyler's brand.

I saw this thread earlier this morning but didn't open it. Now that I have, I would have said bullion (spelling?) cubes.

You could probably get by with Top Ramen Noodles powder too.

 

[BadMoon]

That sounds like a lot of work.
