After all the discussion about the disappointment in the change to
Campbell's Tomato Soup and their cream soups in general, I discovered
something while shopping yesterday.
At least 15 or more years ago Campbell's introduced a Tomato Bisque
that I liked even better than their regular tomato soup because it
has nice little bits of tomato in it. Whether you made it with
water, milk, or cream, it was very good.
Over the past several years I haven't fouynd it on the shelf in the
stores, so assumed they had discontinued it. Perhaps they actually
did for a while.
Yesterday, I found it again at Safeway. I'm having it for lunch as I
write this, and out of the can it is the same nice thick concentrate
with the same flavor that the regular tomato soup used to be.
So...if you're interestd and wouldn't mind the bits of tomato, you
might want to give this a try.
Dare I ask what the ingredients are?
Do we have that much time?
Seriously, I only bought one can (taking a chance), and have thrown it
away in our company trash, so I don't want to dumpster dive. :-)
I will say that it tastes exactly like I remembered it.
Thanks anyway. I'll try to remember to look next time I'm in the store.
Or maybe I should say n"ext time I can find the soup in the store".
(They are remodeling.)
We just went through that with my favorite store, or should I say what used
to be my favorite store? I can't find a damned thing now.
