Hi Chelly, you don't sound thick to me, I have been on and off this forum since Aug 2009 and I found out what it was when I requested help to find a soup substitute.
Anyway it is a very low-cal and low carb cup-a soup substitute, which I presume is allowed in moderation,especially if it prevents us coming off the rails completely.
I couldn't find it in my Tesco, but plenty of it in the gravy aisle in Asda, I couldn't believe how nice it is, oh and as advised on here I got the reduced salt version.
Well worth a try x
