My husband bought me some of my favorite soup, Campbell's Cream of Potato. My mouth got all ready and I sipped the first spoon. I spit it back in the bowl. It tasted TERRIBLE! I thought it was spoiled. Nope. Now! With Sea Salt Added! If I wanted sea salt I'd go float in the ocean!
I just discovered that they've done the same to Vegetarian Vegetable. No more Campbell's soup for me. And I wrote them to tell them where they can stick their sea salt! I don't buy Healthy Choice soups because they taste awful. So they are now going to force their idea of healthy on consumers? The left is taking over everything and forcing their ideas on us. I'm really angry. They stick their nose in every aspect of our lives.
I guess I'll just have to make my own.
Echinacea tea and honey. It tastes bad but works. :-)
That's what happened! lol
nom nom ;o) delicious.
It actually is less time consuming, if one uses these methods of cooking double batches, etc, to home cook meals (saves in travel time to store too) than to cook prepared foods that are full of cr*p.
And slow cookes, especially for people who work - throw the food in before work and come home to a cooked meal ready to eat. What can be easier?
What makes you think I haven’t? I eat a lot of soup, and since this is from a recent shopping trip and it says “sea salt” on it, I’m pretty sure I’ve tasted it. I think you’re just used to the vile msg they used to put in these soups. For a lot of people, it enhances the flavors. For me, it makes me horribly ill. It’s nice to be able to buy a soup at the supermarket, instead of having to search obscure health food stores. (Or sometimes I make it myself.)
There are plenty of other choices. They aren’t messing with soup to make it healthier. They’re trying to make it cheaper. And the condensed soup STILL contains MSG. And there is no difference in sea salt and table salt except taste and texture as per post 27.
Expect to see more baby boomers with goiters as they spurn the old fashioned Morton’s salt with iodine for this new fad salt.
I don’t usually eat soup but it looks like I’ll have to make my own. There are some wonderful recipes posted in the thread.
Every time I make a full chicken or turkey or a beef roast I turn the left overs into soup. Add a can of stewed tomatoes to the cubed meat and broth, a can of mixed veggies (drain the water off), some salt, pepper and parsley fakes and you have soup. You can add noodles to the batch you plan to eat, freeze the rest in portion sized containers. It makes a good instant meal with a sandwich added. Noodles don’t freeze well.
Thanks. I would have discovered that the hard way. LOL
500+ responses to a vanity post. You should be proud. You got better ratings than Countdown with Olbermann.
Last week, I brought 6 packages of chocolate covered nuts to the office. A well meaning client got it for us as a Christmas gift. He didn’t know my daughter had a nut allergy.
I put them in the office kitchen, and my coworkers ate them within 2 hours.
I should start a vanity post...
PEOPLE IN MY OFFICE LOVE MY CHOCOLATE NUTS!
What’s the over under on number of responses?:-)
Pray Larry Sinclair isn’t lurking.
Maybe you should. You might get some yummy recipes too!
Thank you for the recipe and the link. May you have a wonderful New Year!
You should have a freeper party and let us all taste your chocolate nuts.. (blush)
Hey, 500+ posts for “Campbells ruined my soup!” Not bad! I suspect “Campbells soup” may become a FR cult think like moose, cheese, bitten sisters, and so on.
One of my adult kids just said we should start asking trolls "Did Campbell's ruin your soup too?"
The other one said I had achieved alpha freeper status for ticking off so many posters. LOL
I BOW before the your great FReepiness, oh alpha one!
I certainly riled a few folks. :-)
