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. -- Wayne Boatwright ------------------------------------------- Monday, 05(V)/12(XII)/08(MMVIII) ------------------------------------------- Countdown till Memorial Day 1wks 6dys 10hrs 15mins ------------------------------------------- You have two choices for dinner: Take it or Leave it. ------------------------------------------- |

Whoa! They use sugar, not HFCS? This must be a premium product, indeed! Does it say on the label where they make it? Canada, perhaps? |
