Thanks to everyone for the replies. To tell the truth, I'm not really interested in starting a business of any kind. Those days are over. I will soon be 72 and I don't need the aggravation. If I had extra money to put at risk, I would sooner invest in some restaurant-chain on the New York stock exchange. But I don't even do that because I don't like investing in restaurants.
But it's fun to think about and I do have an idea that is similar to what someone mentioned above. Picture something like Subway but instead of building a sub you would build a soup. Soupway? There would be a couple of basic soups (broth) and you would tell the clerk what to add, like garbanzo beans or red beans, pasta, rice or barley etc.. It would be a one dish meal. The soup would not contain sodium but there would be salt- shakers on every table....so knock yourself out.
There you go, a spectacular million dollar franchise idea that anyone can start and become a household name - Soupway?
P.S. These soups would be vegan and therefore they would be healthy and relatively inexpensive.

I guess you're not much of a chef if you think a couple of basic broths with 'stuff' added make a soup. Good soup is an amalgamation of flavors that are simmered together.
"No soup for you - 6 months!"
But I like the imagination - other ideas?
