Were it not for the heroic labors of Dr. John T. Dorrance, the world might never have known this short film extolling the various applications of soup.
Dorrance, a chemist with the Campbell Soup Company, (anybody else think it’s weird that a soup company had a chemist? No? Just me? Okay) invented condensed soup in 1897 and the broth world has never been the same.
So pull up a bowl of soup, settle in, and prepare to be surprised, delighted, and - spoiler alert - shocked.
(“Magic” loosely interpreted by filmmakers.)
