Questions & Answers
I recommend that you purchase where the price is lower. If I had to guess, one store is paying the company's new soup price, while the other is pricing it according to their original cost. When they're gone, they'll raise the sale price to reflect what they're paying now for their most recent purchases.
Yes, without a doubt. It's as simple as opening it, warming it in the small container, and drinking/eating it. There is no need for a spoon!
You'll get eight soups in total.
This is correct.

A spoon is required. I ordered the Chicken. I like the taste of the Mini Round Noodles variety; it's a classic Campbell's chicken soup flavor that I've enjoyed since I was a child. These are designed so that you can sip your soup rather than using a spoon. (I should trademark that phrase before Campbell's plagiarizes it. ) lol. It heats up quickly and has a small opening on the top so you can drink the soup while on the go. But in the end, I'm left with a blob of small round pasta beads and a few tiny chicken pieces. I won't be able to drink them, so I'll have to use the spoon! br>br>I tried forcing the pasta out of my mouth, but it didn't work. It was difficult for me to get it out, and I had to spoon it out. Before heating it up the next time I made this soup, I gave it a good shake. After it was heated, I thoroughly stirred it. And . Despite this, I ended up with all the good stuff at the bottom of the pile. So, while the soup is tasty and low in calories, it isn't as practical as it claims to be. 4 out of 5 for flavor. Design of the container: 5 stars. Ability to consume the entire soup without the use of a spoon: 0 stars.
I was hooked because the idea of a portable hot meal appealed to me. The reality, on the other hand, is a bit of a letdown. Isn't that the case all of the time? br>br>Let's start with the red lid. I believe they were designed for engineers or something, because I'm sure other mechanically challenged people would appreciate them. People who aren't naturally inclined have a hard time getting rid of them. I was on the verge of hernia surgery! I eventually gave up and wiggling it off with a butter knife. It would have been more convenient if I had made my own homemade soup! The flavor comes in second. br>br> It has a lot of weight to it. I'm not sure how, given that the entire can contained only 60 calories or so. The mouthfeel, on the other hand, is very thick. br>br>Third, there should be noodles in the noodle soup. This contains about 2 teaspoons of the tiniest noodles I've ever seen, which sink to the bottom and must be fished out with a spoon. I honestly have no idea how they taste because I was too hungry to think about it by the time I got to them. I believe I have completely swallowed them. There's no risk of choking because they'd fit through the eye of a needle, in my opinion. If not a needle, a bobby pin is the next best thing. br>br>I still got a second shipment because my mother has a very small appetite (imagine a cranky two-year-old) and this will work for her. If you have a normal appetite, keep looking or eat a piece of toast, which will fill you up more.
I purchased these soups in the hopes of making them quickly and easily after my surgery. I was, unfortunately, mistaken. aibr>Ply pull up the red top is the first instruction. I've tried everything I can think of to get these tops to open, but they won't. They didn't open despite the fact that I have a college education and am capable of reading instructions. I tried pulling it up, twisting it, yanking it, gradually pulling it, and so on, but none of them worked. I finally gave up and cut the thick plastic material with scissors, which was extremely difficult, and after about 10 minutes, I was able to get the majority of it open enough to lift the aluminum lid. I then poured it into a pot and cooked it the old-fashioned way, hoping no red particles made their way into the soup. I made lemonade out of lemons by adding shrimp, noodles, onions, spices, and other ingredients to compensate for the tumultuous start; it tasted great but wasn't worth the loss of strength. I tried all of them, so it's possible that I got a bad batch of lids. Regardless of the method I used, none of them would open.
Is there anything not to like about this place? It's the same Chicken this time. As a kid, you gorged yourself on Stars soup. Yum. The problem is that the pasta settles to the bottom of the cup, and raising the cup to your lips and drinking it isn't enough motion to mix those stars back into the broth. You can swirl them back into circulation if the soup has cooled enough that you can put your finger over the drinking spout without burning yourself. I usually use a spoon and remove the lid. br>br>For a few months, all of the Campbell's micro soups foil tab openings were glued down so tightly that neither my husband nor I could pull them up, let alone open the container. We had to resort to pliers in the end. That issue appears to have been resolved with our most recent shipments. If you have arthritic hands, bring pliers!br>br>However, having a single serving in a microwaveable container is a wonderful convenience, especially when you're sick and alone.
The container does not appeal to me. It's supposed to be simple to drink the soup right out of the container. Not so. Because the pasta is heavy, it sinks to the bottom. When you finally get low enough to tilt it up far enough for the pasta to slide to the opening, it becomes stuck on the lip inside the container. Because of the container design, it is worthless. br>br> I would not recommend this product.
If you don't, when you put it in the microwave, the noodles will be on the bottom, and it will topple over around the 20-second mark. It's a total disaster. I gave it another shot, but this time I used a mug. What's another mug or bowl if you're going to need a spoon? The noddles will all congregate at the bottom if this does not happen. br>It tastes exactly like the Campbell's soup I remember from my childhood! I'm still happy with my purchase, but I had to make a few adjustments to the way I used it. 5 stars for flavor, but keep in mind that you'll need a sooon, so it's not very convenient for on-the-go.
These have a better flavor than I anticipated. It's also a good meal because there are so many tiny pastas inside. The problem is that once you remove the silver tab and microwave it, you can't really shake it up, causing all of the pasta to fall to the bottom. So I have two options: remove the lid and stir it, or eat it with a spoon. If I sip it, I have to first step out all of the liquid, then use the spoon to get the pasta, so it's not the most practical option.
