I used to enjoy a bowl of soup with the evening meal after coming in on
cold, winter nights. But the major brands of soup are now So Infested
with dead fruit flies, that I can no longer enjoy soup.

Campbells,, Healthy Choice,, Progresso,, etc all have this Infestation
problem. Progresso a little less so than the competition.

Does ennyone know this problem,, and what the Regulatory Agencies have
to say? When I can strain at least 40 dead fruit flies from a single can
of soup = is that not too many?

I have only seen a few fruit flies in soups a canned fruit. It is hard
to avoid when they can this stuff. They are not harmfull to your health
so its ok to eat them in the soup as long as you cook them well.

I am sure there are dead bugs and probably things from rodents in most all
processed foods that we buy. However I have never actually seen any whole
bugs or even bug parts. That being said, canned soup is not something I eat
a lot of. Soup is just so easy to make from scratch.

I rely on canned soup when not enough time to make something from
scratch. I've never seen anything I would call a bug in any of them. I
think it's just someone clueless who is seeing pepper, or a really
stupid troll attempt.
