Soup thread has me craving soup!

What are your favourite tinned soups? Also open to the shop-bought fresh soup suggestions!

I can't stand Heinz Tomato Soup. It tastes of chemicals.

Cookerhood · 01/11/2022 16:57

Yorkshire Provender Roast Chicken & veg or Cully & Sully smoked haddock & salmon chowder.
Tinned: Heinz cream of tomato, obvs.

Justcallmebebes · 01/11/2022 16:57

Sainsbury's own brand broccoli & Stilton

mellicauli · 01/11/2022 16:58

The M&S tinned Chicken & veg is almost as good as the Provender Roast chicken one. But cheaper.

Baxter's Tomato with an egg mayo sandwich on the side.

Tomato soup is the one I can't stand, Heinz or any other brand. It's far too sweet for me.

Grim.
I am definitely not craving shop/tinned soup

Not the thread for you then.

CuriousCatfish · 01/11/2022 17:02

Heinz tomato soup.

Baxter’s Sri Lankan sweet potato one. Utterly amazing. Super healthy too, 2 portions of veg in every tin apparently!

AnneShirleysNewDress · 01/11/2022 17:06

Baxters cream of tomato - delicious.

Gasp0deTheW0nderD0g · 01/11/2022 17:06

I like M&S cream of chicken. 55p a tin from Ocado. I add plenty of pepper, as I do to most things.

LakieLady · 01/11/2022 17:07

Sainsbury's Keralan chicken is my favourite fresh soup, too @gogohmm . Favourite tinned is Baxter's carrot and butter bean, but I'm also very partial to a decent pea and ham soup.

But if I'm ill, my go to is Heinz tomato. I swear it's actually a medicine. I like to grate some cheese into it, too.

Ohhelpicantthinkofaname · 01/11/2022 17:08

M&S sweet potato and butternut squash. Yum. I want some now.

Helendee · 01/11/2022 17:10

Heinz cream of tomato and vegetable soups mixed together are heaven.

OldTinHat · 01/11/2022 17:11

Asda tinned vegetable soup. It was 45p but now 55p. Its great though.

00100001 · 01/11/2022 17:13

Going to have to try the roast chicken one now

SammyScrounge · 01/11/2022 17:13

Scotch Broth - either Baxter's or Heinz

It's an AIBU thread. So yes, for me, op is bu to ask, as all tinned soup is grim.
hth for a few of you.
Fuck knows why it's in aibu but there we go

glamourousindierockandroll · 01/11/2022 17:18

Scotch Broth is top tier

Minfilia · 01/11/2022 17:19

M&S used to do a lovely creamed vegetable soup, but they discontinued it. It was lush with their torpedo rolls 😍

All other tinned soups I’ve tried taste like chemicals to me. The new Covent Garden lentil and bacon carton soup is nice though and very healthy.

Melliphant · 01/11/2022 17:19

Heinz cream of tomato is the only decent Heinz one - and yes please to the grated cheese. Most of the others are thickened salty water with homeopathic levels of other ingredients added. All the supermarkets do better versions.

mouse70 · 01/11/2022 17:19

Any tinned tomato with cubes of cheese mixed in either cheddar or blue cheese and white crusty bread with butter. Chicken or mushroom soup as a sauce on pasta

Your post is missing a few words. 'In my opinion ...' would do it. Or 'I think that ...'

HTH.
