Surreal beef stock. I thought everybody knew that.

Imaginary beef stock, from i of the round.

I wish... Since I've never eaten that brand before I have no objections!

Oh good grief...

Sorry, I'm missing the joke on that one.

[curiouswombat.livejournal.com]

(and eye of the round being a cut of beef)

[ffutures.livejournal.com]

OK - never heard that bit of beef being called an eye before.
