George Webb Chicken-Flavored Noodle Soup $0.99 Coupon
Have you heard about the controversy surrounding George Webb’s chicken-flavored noodle soup? According to an article that appeared recently in the Milwaukee Journal Sentinel, George Webb was forced to change their recipe after their supplier of chicken soup stock abruptly stopped making their blend. No big deal, right? Wrong! Lovers of the neon green colored chicken-flavored noodle soup were up in arms at the recipe change. After trying several other unacceptable alternatives, they were able to find a local company that would make a suitable substitute. Everyone seems to be happy now with the chicken-flavored noodle soup, although why can’t they just call it “chicken noodle soup”?
To celebrate the return of the neon green chicken-flavored noodle soup to their menu, Webb’s has posted a coupon good for a cup of soup for $0.99 on their Facebook page. The coupon is good through the end of October, and is valid for fans of George Webb on Facebook (so become a fan if you aren’t already).
