THE LEGEND THAT IS HEINZ CREAM OF TOMATO SOUP
*****A Little bit about Heinz*****
In 1869, two American Gentlemen, Henry J Heinz and L Clarence Noble launched a little company which would grow and evolve to revolutionize store cupboards the world over, and send a legacy far ahead into the dim and dark future, so that even now, 137 years later, the products they dreamed up still grace our shelves and warm our bellies on cold Sunday afternoons in ... ...In 1876 our beloved Heinz Tomato Ketchup was born, and the company name was the singular and now world renowned HEINZ, with no sigh whatsoever of Mr Noble. Ten years later, Mr Heinz was selling his products to London's Fortnum and Mason, and in 1892, while riding a train through a New York station, he hit upon the idea of 57 varieties after looking at a billboard selling shoes. There are of course more than 57 varieties in the Heinz product range ...

You can still buy Heinz Tomato soup in cans. The cans come in two sizes: large with 400grams of soup in it and mug size (a.k.a “for one”) which has 300grams of soup. My micro-cup had 275grams of soup in it and I paid just under £1 for it. The mug size cans cost about £0.49 from Asda and the standard size cost about £0.59 or £2.29 for four also from ...

Heinz - Cream of Tomato Soup
=======================
A food that takes longer to eat than to cook / heat it.
Packaging:
=======
You’re kidding right? Everybody will instantly recognise the bright red tin with its distinctive black label. Which comes in a handy palm sized tin with the now obligatory ring pull. Easy to open and completely recyclable.
There is always a tin somewhere in the kitchen cupboard. Although the price does seem to have ... ...Trace of Citric Acid.

...I am obviously talking about Heinz Cream of Tomato Soup.
As a child my mum used to buy this brand, maybe that's where it all went horribly wrong. I remember being in many a restaurant with my parents over the years and their exasperation at the fact I wouldn't touch anything faintly resembling my beloved Tomato soup. They always thought this was because I was a picky child, but no, I always had taste and still have. There is NO comparison, anywhere.

The unique Heinz Logo, white lettering on a black backround tells me Heinz was established a mere 100 Years before I was, in 1869, it also states 'ready to serve' teasingly at the bottom. The ring pull on the top of the can allows quick and easy access to my beloved soup, unless you have false nails, when it can be a bit of a bugger! I have to open my can now, just to remind myself of the contents.
The soup itself is a rich ...

My taste for Heinz Cream of Tomato Soup (to give it it’s official title) seems to have been passed on through the generations, as my own wee ten-year-old daughter also adores it, (is it in the genes?) and there is many a battle in the ‘mad cabbie’ household as to who has the bigger portion when this soup is bubbling away on the cooker!

...evening. Open a tin of Heinz Cream of Tomato Soup, pour it into a pan, making sure not to waste any by rinsing the tin with a little water, and simmer. It's thick, it's creamy and the taste of spicy tomato is unmistakeably good.

I buy it here in France much dearer than you would be expected ... ...or special. The anticipation is. Heinz got it right, and here have stuck to the original recipe which is a good idea.

Extracts of herbs and spices doesn't tell you much about which ones were used and try as I may to copy their recipe, ...

Heinz Tomato Soup goes back to when I was a child. Being a very fussy eater , tomato soup was one of the only foods I liked. I would come home from school for my lunch to enjoy a bowl of Heinz Tomato Soup (it had to be Heinz! ) with bread in it. It would be a substantial meal for me. Christmas time would come and on one occasion I was allowed to have tomato soup as my christmas lunch because I caused such a fuss about not wanting to eat the traditional ... ...came to foods , however Heinz tomato soup was still a regular on my menu.

Heinz cream of tomato soup is one of the ultimate comfort foods.

It has been a favourite of mine for as long as I can remember and I am pretty sure that the design of the tin has stayed the same for at least the last three decades (that's as far back as I can remember).

I would recommend it to anyone especially in wintertime to heat you up. Go on, try some - you won't be disappointed!!
