I only buy Campbell's Tomato soup. It's great in the Winter with grilled cheese! All other canned soups are way to salty.

I stopped buying Campbells condensed soups about 20 years ago, and their Chunky soups about 15 years ago. Junk food. Won’t even stock it in pantry for emergencies.

Homemade cream of tomato is much better tasting, cheaper, more nutritious and easy to make. In addition, as with any other homemade soup, one can add other ingredients or spices to taste.

Here’s a link to one simple basic recipe.

Once you start making you own soups, you’ll kick yourself for not not doing it earlier.

Another cheap and simple recipe is US Senate navy bean soup with ham. Good cold weather lunch course. Canned or dried beans, both work well.

We used to as well, for the same reason. But we’ve switched to Trader Joe’s tomato soup. It’s better.

Campbells is okay.....many recipes call for their cream of mushroom or cream of chicken soups and for a quick fix, tomato soup made with milk is okay....

but I'm moving away from most canned foods anyway, especially the vegetables, and I won't buy soup anymore....I'm working thru my survivalist pantry one can at a time...
