To ask where the hell Campbell's Mushroom Soup has gone?

I love using tins of their condensed Mushroom Soup as a sauce for tortellini pasta (delicious!) but it seems to have vanished off the supermarket shelves. I've been searching for weeks and can't find it anywhere anymore :(

This Reddit poster had the same experience as me - https://www.reddit.com/r/AskUK/comments/17jyns5/where_has_campbells_soup_gone/

Does anyone know if Campbell's Mushroom Soup is no more or not??

We use the tomato one as a pasta base quite a lot. I tried a different soup and it just wasn’t the same.

Im quite worried they’re gone forever!

Campbell's have exited the soup market - so they will no longer be available

Finishingoff · 13/11/2023 17:43

That’s so funny - I was looking for the chicken one at the weekend. I was astonished that I couldn’t find it.

IHeartGeneHunt · 13/11/2023 17:46

What!! This is the start of the bloody apocalypse. Can we not have anything!?

KellyanneConway · 13/11/2023 17:46

My mum was saying this yesterday. I got some recently from our local B&M, try there, I’m going to stock up now I know it’s discontinued- if there is any left!

Cambell's soups are condensed, so will taste a lot stronger in recipes than other varieties.

The Sun says it's supplier problems and they will be returning soon.

Campbell's is still going, it's V8 veg juice that's been discontinued.

But apparently there are supplier problems. Hopefully it'll be back.

"A Campbell’s spokesman in the US said the shortages might be the result of discussions over a new licensee partner in the UK".

"Sources say it is down to supplier problems — and the soups should be returning soon".

Ha, cross posted with @MereDintofPandiculation!

@18degrees
Thank you for that information. I've been looking for a tin of Campbell's Tomato soup for a while. Wanted it as part of a hamper for 10th Wedding Anniversary (tin).
Can't find any related Andy Warhol items either (i.e.wrapping paper with Campbell's Tomato soup).

Remona · 13/11/2023 17:55

I use both the mushroom one and the tomato one in pasta bakes. I’ve always bought them in either Home Bargains or B&M rather than in supermarkets. I got some last week so they’re still available.

Batferg · 13/11/2023 17:57

I had to look this up on Reddit as was hunting this weekend! Huge supply problems potentially related to a takeover. Ended up making my own and it was absolutely bloody amazeballs. It was for a pie filling.

iklboo · 13/11/2023 17:58

Weird! We were looking for it at the weekend to - or even the chicken one. Nowhere to be found in Asda or Sainsbury's near us.

Amberlady · 13/11/2023 18:00

I haven't found it anywhere for a while. Love the mushroom soup for a chicken dish I do. Nothing else works the same. Hope it's soon back.

Greatfull · 13/11/2023 18:01

I got mine from B and M recently

Countmeout · 13/11/2023 18:02

We had a Batchelors one in a dish this evening and I wouldn’t have known the difference.

I was just going to suggest B&M and the like because Campbell s isn't doing soup now.

<stealth boast 😁😂>
I have 4 cans in my cupboard. But I’m in Canada so not much use to you. 😬

That’s why I used them!

Scout2016 · 13/11/2023 18:18

I am still upset about them stopping the celery soup. If anyone knows where I can get some or similar I'm all ears!

Blueberrycreampie · 13/11/2023 18:25

Me too ( celery soup)!

Anotherparkingthread · 13/11/2023 18:34

I also love these on pasta. The mushroom one is great for pies too. Didn't know I'd be so gutted over soup.

HouseOfRunners · 13/11/2023 18:35

Mushroom? To hell where it belongs 🤞🏼

This.

2catsandhappy · 13/11/2023 19:05

Home Bargains and Heron Foods are the places to look. I have 10 tins in my cupboard. I pick a couple up each shopping trip. Used to be 49p now about 69p and rising. I dread running out. I use them in slow cooker recipes.

Mamofteenager · 13/11/2023 19:08

Batcholors do the condensed mushroom soup (I picked it up in Iceland for 80p). I use this as a pasta sauce and it tastes similar

Coastalcreeksider · 13/11/2023 19:21

I've got a mushroom one!

Had it a while but still well in date. I'm going to use it in a pasta dish if anyone has a quick and easy recipe.
