It is extremely funny to me that groceries is one of the few things I actually enjoy shopping for yet most of the time I HATE shopping with my husband. Tiny Viking and I usually stay at home, unless I am restless to get out of the house and walk around. Anyway...
For a semi recent grocery trip, I gathered up coupons and made a list for things we wanted and needed. Tim went on his way and came back with more than I'd asked for! I wanted soup. And, WOW did he bring home soup!
These are some of the NEW Campbell's soups I've tried now and what I think of them:
Healthy Request Grilled Chicken & Sausage Gumbo Soup. - The original Chunky version is one of my favorite soups EVER. This one was both way too spicy and very bland at the same time. Spicy in the sense that my mouth was on fire after two bites but everything I love about the original was just not there. I was very disappointed. Not sure what I'll do with the other two cans of it.
Soup on the Go Cheesy Chicken Tortilla. - I could eat this every day. I absolutely loved it. I really want to sing praises for this one but I think it can speak for itself. HIGHLY recommended!!
Soup on the Go Cheesy Potato with Bacon Flavor - One of the worst soups I've ever had the misfortune of trying. All I could taste with every sip was fake bacon flavoring. Maybe because I had such high hopes it made my disappointment in this one worse, either way a dozen or so sips was all I could handle and it just got dumped down the drain. Sorry Campbell's go back to the drawing board with this one.
For anyone curious the Soup on the Go flavors Chicken & Noodles and Cream of Chicken are very tasty as well. In the Chunky style I really enjoy their Steak & Potato and Fajita Chicken with Rice & Beans.
I think I watch WAY too much Food Network! I critique everything I eat now. Soup is what's on my mind tonight. Hopefully this helps someone out there find new flavors to try!
