When I was young, Campbell Soup had beef and noodle, and noodles and ground beef. I call Campbell’s every now and then jack them up that they need to make those again. Another thing I can’t find anymore or crown pilot crackers. They were about the size of a pop tart. Progress.

I saw something about oysters today and thought, "I need to get some oyster soup/stew" ... guess I better not get my hope up. Thanks for the warning.

I can’t figure why canned soup used to taste so good and now taste like crap.

They've removed have the good stuff,cut down on the salts and replaced them with 'reconstituted water' . I'm also betting the can 'portion' ( amount) is smaller than years ago.
What I'd like to know is WHY don't ALL cans have 'stackable' lower rims !!!! Soup cans do, but beans don't. grrrrr, try stacking them 3 high !!

Well your reminding me of my wife, as she has had a go round or 2 with Cambells over the years. The first was some recipe Cambells had back years ago, that was well liked here by the kids ( I don't remember what it was  so must not of been my favorite, or most hated  ). But she could not find the soup called for, so she wrote a letter ( so you know it was back there in time ). They sent a letter back with coupons for the new improved replacement. But the local store did not want to carry that flavor, which was another war. But having a good head for cooking came up with a work around of some kind.
But the real take away was there are about 4 times more flavors of Cambells soup than any grocery store has on the shelf.

Stackable cans. You’re right Jay B. I haven’t measured cans just yet, but the original Allis oil filters measure 3 7/16. I would like to have a can with no ribs and painted orange. Then slap a sticker over it and slip it over the new filters. It would give a new filter the old Allis Chalmer’s look.

Wife used the last can of oysters we had to make oyster stew last week. Now I can't seem to find any more in the stores around here. Local market near the farm has fresh oysters but they are $$$. But I bet they will be a lot better.

What i hate is the amount of SODIUM (SALT) that they put in ALL CAN GOODS... WHY ? If you want the salt for flavor, you can add your own... No reason to have 700 mg in each can !

Like them all, but love the "B"s.

I agree Steve, finding ‘low salt’ or ‘no salt’ versions of many canned goods has become nearly impossible since Wuhan Flu.

I tried to follow the science, but it was not there. I then followed the money, and that’s where I found the science.

Because the stuff they put in the cans is flavorless crap and salt is the only thing that makes it desirable to most people’s tastes.
