Since we're discussing commercial soups, I'd like to put in a good word for
a product my wife introduced to me. This is Knorr tomato with basil (or is it
thyme?) *dried* soup. All my life I was brought up eating Campbell's tomato
soup, and was led to believe that the canned variety of soup was better than
the dried. However, my wife was raised in Bogota, where such basic foods as
canned soup and Twinkies are difficult to come by. I was amazed by the
flavor and consistency of the Knorr soup, if a bit put off (initially) by
the distinctly brownish color. Anyway, the Knorr is great unadorned, whereas
I used to pile the herbs and spices into Campbell's to make it at all
interesting. Try it, you'll like it!

Knorr makes a number of dried soups, as well as some excellent bullion cubes which have NO sugar in them (a rare event). They do, however, use lots of salt. An aside here - I've seen a large number of products which are capitalising on being sodium or salt-free, but which turn out to be loaded with sugar instead. This is not a desirable alternative, in my opinion - I'd rather have the salt ! -- jcpatilla "If we can send a man to the moon, why can't we send all of them ?"
