So how is this a "convenience" food? I think of a convenience food
as something easy to eat, such as a sandwich or a meat pie. But this
sounds rather messy. A wet, drippy meat pie and a soup which is going
to probably need a spoon. Not to mention a glob of messy tomato sauce
or catsup on top of all this.

I still think pea soup is pretty awlful, even with out a meat pie
sitting in it. But some say the same about frito pie or fried spam.
