Why is chicken soap considered so wonderful and healing thing?

[struggle4progress]

You know what I mean: you get sick, and then WTF! your grandmother brings over some chicken soap



Or you're having a bad time, and one of your friends brings over some book with a title like Chicken Soap for the Sole



And what can you really think, besides "Well, fuggittall, at least the book's not called Chicken Soap for the Heel



Does anybody know what chicken soap is? Does anybody really care?

5. In a weak moment years back I fell for the wonderful moisturizing "Emu oil".

Took about one use to make me look around going "Who's cooking chicken soup?" I threw it out. I just couldn't stand smelling that delicious.

7. I understand. Phew

Who wants to walk around smelling like soup.
That could be hazardous to your health. [img][/img]



Have you tried Moroccan Argan Oil? It smells yummy.

17. I found some South African Shea Butter that I love. And it smells magnificent.

I don't know what they scent it with but it's like musky vanilla with a hint of mango. Frankly, I smell HOT. Some French Market vendor in NO sells it so I go visit every time I'm home.

20. Frankly, I'd like to hear from the Sheas...

...before trusting that butter.

8. This has been really bothering me for almost ten minutes now

Yeah, go ahead and laugh, but that's almost twice as long as I've ever been bothered before



Anybody with half a brain would naturally feel the same way, yet everyone carries one as normal
