Default Campbell's Tomato Soup Redux

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.

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.

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?

Howdy,

That listing indicates that we have a real problem here in
New Hampshire.

All the best,

It's the best taste I've had of cream of tomato soup in years, except of
course, for homemade.

I have no idea, since I don't have the can/label now.

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".

Thanks! I'll try that. Having the sugar in that position doesn't

I thank all commercial tomato soups rank fairly high in sweetness,
regardless the type.

No, I don't recall seeing it. Perhaps I should look. Is it something I
can add whole milk or cream to? I only like "cream of tomato soup". :-)

I didn't read the label, Kimberly, but from what Bryan posted from the
label, it's real sugar.
