My mater plants are escalating too. Got one that’s 1 1/2 foot tall now.

Of note in the soup price chart, Nixon got us fully off the gold standard in 1971. Look what happened to soup prices immediately after the switch to fiat currency.

When I was in college, the Kroger’s private label chicken noodle soup was 20 cents.

I’ll gladly pay $1.25 for a can of Campbell’s tomato soup, but I can’t find it. A can of Progresso soup costs nearly $3.50.

Looky what happened when we went off the gold standard in the early 70s. I’m shocked.

At DAVOS today, George Soros said we have to immediately defeat Putin, then on to China. So buckle up your belts and do your part!

I paid $1.58 for a can of Campbells cream of mushroom for a recipe I’m making tonight. Other than that, I make my own soup.

Synchronicity or coincidence or whatever you call it, I was in the store the other day and glanced at the Campbell’s Tomato soup price as a quick-n-dirty inflationary dipstick.

I make my own tomato soup:
8oz can tomato sauce
whole whipping cream
sugar or artificial sugar

Pour tomato sauce into mug or sauce pan. Fill can with 1/2 cream and 1/2 water. Mix well with tomato sauce. Add sugar to taste (takes bitterness away), heat and serve.

I’m hooked on this - I add croutons or cheese crisps on top.

I was skeptical that Amazon was cheaper than Walmart on such a common food product (since it is usually higher for such), and indeed it is not, for contrary to the zububrothers page the 10.75 oz. can is $1.39 at Amazon (and the cheapest price for Condensed Tomato Soup at that size) but still $1.17 at Walmart but Great Value Tomato Condensed Soup, 10.75 oz is $0.58. Thank God.

IIRC many years ago you could buy ten cans of Campbells for a dollar.
