Advantages: A perfectly acceptable carrot soup Disadvantages: Not what I expected!
...five portions a day.
Baxters Vegetarian soup isn’t something I’d normally go for, but it was in the cupboard at home and looked more appetising than the normal Sainsburys soups (which don’t offer much variety in vegetarian flavours). The first thing I like is that it belongs to Baxters vegetarian range – it’s a simply presented green tin with a very appetising picture, and obviously vegetarian (Apart from the name, there’s a badge proclaiming it ... ...than tomato! For comparison, the Baxters Vegetarian Carrot and Butter Bean soup has 23% carrot (i.e. about twice as much carrot), but nevertheless I found this so-called tomato one over-poweringly carroty. (Amazingly my spell checker recognises ‘carroty’ as a word).
It annoyed me slightly. I’d rejected a carrot soup because I wanted tomato; if I’d known this would be so carroty anyway I’d probably have had the Sainsbury’s Be Good to Yourself Carrot ...

Product contains wheat, milk, gluten, and butter beans Suitable for vegetarians Price Range: £0.64 ...

Advantages: 16% Butter Bean content Disadvantages: Tomato flavour could be a little stronger
...of this particular flavour of Baxters soup so I can comment on it with a great deal of authority I feel. There are quite a few Butter Beans in each can (16%) which remain a bit crunchy, al dente if you will, there is also some onion pieces which are nice. However the tomato flavour is mild compared to what you would usually get in a dedicated tomato soup. Butter Beans are exceptionally good for you as they contain amino acids which are important ... ...Garlic Puree, Basil, Black Pepper, Cumin. Other nutritional data: 166 cals per tin 1.2% Fat 1.2& Protein 0.38g salt per tin This is one of my staple Baxters soups that I often have in my food cupboard and I would recommend it to all soup lovers. ...
