To my recollection, Stone Soup was mostly used for dinner Saturday 
night in the SCA camp at the Renaissance Festival down near Houston. 
Folks would bring carrots, or potatoes, or meat, or noodles or 
whatever and add it to the pot (or they'd contribute a dollar or two 
to Mistress Janet, the cook.)

I'd guess if it was used in other places, the cook might actually 
plan the soup, and buy (or request) the various components 
beforehand. that'd give a more consistent, but less adverturous soup.
