Yep. I stopped buying after I saw those commercials. If they want to write off traditional christians, then I’m more happy to write them off.
Salt stew.
Moreso than their social stances, their product plain sucks. Dry packaged soups are better in most cases. Bear Creek makes an excellent product. For canned soups, Progresso beats them by miles.
If you know ANYTHING about “retail” business, it is that you do not go NEAR politics! Politics is split left/right. No matter what you promote, you are alienating 1/2 of your potential profit base. I was in business (a big one) and ran the marketing dept. There was always a “tendency” for people to want to “market their ideas” instead of the products we were supposed to sell. While I ran it, they knew even bringing up the subject in a meeting was “not a good idea” career-wise.
Once you learn how to make soup on your own it is stupid to pay for this.
I can make a whole pot with fresh ingredients - equivalent to about 6 cans of soup - for the cost of about one can.
And making soups and stews is a no-brainer after a while. Once I went gluten-free (actually its more WHEAT-free) I practically live on soups and stews and chili and stuff.
No longer as American as chicken soup.
Campbell soup and other store-bought soups are just that.....salt stews!
I could throw them on my driveway here in Maine during the winter to melt the ice.
I eat only home-made soups, with pepper, Mrs. Dash, garlic powder, and/or onion powder for seasoning.
Glad to see them reap what they sow.
A company’s task is to make things people want and sell those things at a profit.
Marketing to a selected subgroup is an indication that company leadership is not interested in product, but politics.
Campbell can shove their over salted crap up their Obamaholes.
Much better stuff out there.
Loaded with MSG. Highly allergic to it. Stopped buying it decades ago.
Highly allergic to gay commercials too.
That sounds like the soup at a very good Japanese place near me.
I can drink a few bowls of it.
That’s true about most foods.
However, I want to spend as little time as I need to to hunt, gather, and prepare the food we eat.
So the grocery store is one of the greatest ‘hunting grounds’ ever created.
And it was created in America.
“Highly allergic to gay commercials too.”
LOL! Good one :-)

Their soups are so salty.........................
An octopus climbed out of the can!...................
You’d think they would have learned from JCP.
“Stupid is as stupid does” - even Forrest Gump knows!
Last Campbell’s can I opened was probably 1978. It’s like Chef Boy-R-D pizza....has no real taste.
Corps are run by university MBA grads now, all highly PC indoctrinated. Professional SJWs, in their minds. F them and their products.
Soup is a quick food that can be refreshing and relatively nutritious if the ingredients are fresh.
We often have a little something left over from a few items purchased and used and the remainder put back in the fridge .... half an onion, only a few celery stalks, some green beans (etc. .... check your fridge)
Put 'em all in a pot with a package or two of Ramen .... VOILA ! ..... MINESTRONE !
