No. The only canned soup I ever use is Rosella Tomato, but only in the winter time, and only once or twice a year. If I could duplicate this soup from scratch, I would never buy canned soup at all. There are too many nasties in them all - from preservatives to wheat-based thickeners (and don't bother to tell us for allergen advice), to genetically modified food that has NOT been proven safe for human consumption, right down to the packaging leaching into the soup - and it does. But sometimes I crave this soup so badly I have to give in...everything else I make from scratch so I know exactly what's in it and how healthy it really is - and it's better tasting when made fresh, too. I just need a creamy tomato soup recipe that tastes right - and I've tried so many it's not funny...
