Campbell's cream of mushroom soup: a poll

Took the spoon by the handle and made some soup. Tasted great. Had to improvise with the blender in the middle of making it. Lost the little gasket. Used a sandwhich wrap with a hole poked in it.

I still have a thing for the old Campbells. Wish it didn’t have all the salt.

If you add some broccoli to it (stir-fry it slightly first), it’s quite good. Adds both color and texture.

Cannot imagine actually eating it as soup. To be honest, the thought had never crossed my mind.

It is a quick substitute for a real sauce, if you are in a hurry or if you have in-laws for dinner.

I doubt very much that there are 10 pound cans of it in many 4 star restaurants.

I’ll take your word for that. And everyone else’s, too. Can’t I just have broccoli, chicken and rice without Canned Condensed Vomit?

It hasn’t got much Canned Condensed Vomit.

What about other cream-of soups? Cream of tomato works well.

How many cans do you need to cook an average pair of in-laws?

Can we do soup powder? Onion powdered soup plus condensed cream…MMMMMMMMMMMMMMMM DIP.

Is it intended as a soup? If we’re talking about the same product, I always thought it was marketed as dip mix.

The soup mix is bloody good soup…well bloody good as in, is not-too-bad-for-lunch soup.

I may, at some point, have used a can of CoM to eat as soup, but 99 out of 100 cans of the stuff I purchased is used for simmering stuff in the Crock Pot and things like that. So I guess that’s a vote for “sauce”.

BTW, even though I like green beans and the soup, I detest the afformentioned green bean casserole. I usually cook Thanksgiving dinner here at the house, and it’s never even on the menu.

Breath mint.

This is a funny poll. What’s Campbell’s Cream of Mushroom soup meant to do?

It’s meant to make money for Campbell’s, of course. I don’t think they really care if you use it as a soup, as a sauce in other dishes, or as an enema. :wink:

As for myself, I can’t say as I have ever bought it for any use at all.

Choices, choices…

There’s a working definition of “cure worse than the disease.”

Campbell’s Cheddar Cheese is actually labeled SOUP/SAUCE. I somehow don’t think a SOUP/SAUCE/ENEMA label would help move soup.

I said “move”. Uuuurgh.

Well, three, actually.

I think that the way to use Creame of Mushroom soup is to strain it and use it to bind old books.

One of the few foods that I really don’t like!!!

I have eaten it as soup. Meh, It’s OK. (My favorite is Campbell’s Split Pea with Ham! ::drool::slight_smile:

Mostly, we keep a can or two on hand for casseroles. Just the other day I concoted a Cheesy Hamburger and Brussels Sprout Casserole featuring the stuff.

1lb Hamburger
1 Onion
1 pkg. frozen Brussels Sprouts
1 can Campbell’s Cream o’ Shroom
3 tbls. of Kraft Pimento Spread
1 cup grated cheese (I used a mix of Chedder, Jalapeno Cheese, and Mozzarella)
Three Quarters of a large bag of egg noodles

Brown the Hamburger with the chopped onion. Boil the noodles al dente. Mix all ingredients in a casserole dish reserving a quarter cup of the cheese to sprinkle on top. Thin with a few tblsp. of milk if mixture is too thick. Bake at 350F for 45 minutes.

I love a good cupboard casserole.

My husband uses it as a soup and I use it as an ingredient in other things.
