When you add greens to hot soup, they instantly wilt and practically disappear. So though I started with 4 cups of lettuce, each time I served this soup I wound up adding more lettuce or spinach to each bowl. Feel free to add as much as you like. Call the kids over so that they can watch as the soup absorbs ridiculous amounts of greenery.
My personal favorite would be a veggie soup with all fresh ingredients. This looks delicious!

My Wife likes to make Lentil and Vegetable Chowder. Cabbage soup is also a favorite. I like to open cans of soup. When forced to choose between two good things, I like to think"Why not both"?
I used to buy Baxter's soup which is very good for a tinned soup. It's a UK company. But now I like nothing but homemade.
I sometimes make a veggie soup and put in just about everything including lentils and rice. But husband is the cook in this house and I just do occasional soups.

Here's What Campbell's Soup Needs To Do To Prevent Its Own Extinction
Soup in a bag?
"Campbell's Soup has been a staple of the American diet for more than 140 years, but the company has seen its core product lose its market share in recent years.
"The company is struggling to maintain relevance, particularly with millennials, a group of about 80 million Americans between the ages of 18 and 34, according to Forbes' Jenna Goudreau.
Unless the soup company can increase sales with this demographic, business experts predict that The Campbell's Soup Company will be rendered extinct within the next ten years.
"Campbell's CEO Denise Morrison, who has been in office for just over a year, is pushing numerous marketing initiatives to target America's younger, more mobile population and said that by August, 50 new Campbell's products — including 32 new soups — will have hit supermarket shelves.
"Some of these new products include Go Soups, a six-flavor line in plastic pouches, and ShakeDowns, a line of pre-cut vegetables that come with dry seasoning packets, both meant to convey portability and freshness.
"But soup-in-a-bag for twentysomethings isn’t Morrison’s only big move, reports Forbes. In the next decade she plans to expand business operatives in Indonesia, Malaysia, Mexico and Australia, while also "ramping up exports to Europe, Asia and the Middle East."

I wonder why twenty-somethings are not buying canned soup. Sounds like easy soup to me.
Are they making their own soup or just not eating soup at all?
I'm also curious to know what the 32 new soups will be.
As a child I LOVED Campbell's soups; loved the advertising too.

I looked on Campbell's website but can't find a list of ingredients. But they still have too much salt and sugar. We do have some Campbell's soups in my UK supermarket, but the biggest section is a UK brand - Baxters.
I won't even guess at the price!
A very rich soup, indeed!
Much more reasonable prices here!

Speaking of soup.... and expense.. Anyone else remember when Oxtails were dirt cheap? My mother made oxtail soup a lot during the winter.. and I know they were cheap because my dad was a roofer and didn't work regularly in the winter. I know you could get a whole bunch of them for a few dollars.. and I love oxtail soup.. Yikes... I bought some yesterday to use in my tomato gravy.. I got 6 tiny ones for $9.00!!! Since when did oxtails become so expensive.. just another meat that goes through the gate last.. You would swear it was lobster tail... not oxtail..
