When I travel to a certain grocery store, which is not often, they have a much larger selection of Campbell's soups. I had never paid much attention until a year or so ago.

I found Cream of Bacon, Cream of Onion, and Cream of Shrimp. Also Cream of Shiitake and Cremini Mushroom and Chicken WonTon. These were all new to me as my local stores do not carry them.

I bought one of each!🤣🤣

I never noticed that soup before either. I am always browsing the soup shelves though. My most recent soup that I really like is a tomato with penne pasta. I like to try different ones out.

Oh dear.....I guess we cannot mention that type of mushroom???

I edited the spelling and fixed it!

I have never noticed Cream of Bacon before. The stores I usually shop at have a very small Campbells soup section so I'm not surprised. I also won't be rushing out to buy it either.

I had bought Cream of Cauliflower, Butternut Squash, Sweet Potato and Tomato Bisque by Campbell's Soup one time.

I never saw them again. I guess they try something different to see if there is a market for different soups.

Wegman's (too huge for me) has a lot of special items not inmy Harris Teeter or other stores...just can't or don't need 12 choices for mustard. I find it overwhelming.

Try not to go there unless looking for one or two special items...wait in line and out.

I have never heard of it or seen it in any stores I go to!

@4kitties I never knew those existed either lol.

Well that sounds good! I've never seen it before. I hope it comes to our grocery store soon! 👍🏻

I hadn't noticed that one, but think Campbell's has been putting more effort into its Condensed Soup line lately. I like Bean With Bacon, when I can find it. It's like baked beans, but soupier. They even have a Heart-Healthy version.

@ValuSkr I was eating Bean with Bacon over 50 years ago. Sure they haven't discontinued it.

Cream of Bacon would be a great base for many recipes.

I avoid MSG, so I don't buy Campbell's soup and never noticed their cream of varieties.

Do they still make Scotch Broth soup? I used to eat that quite a bit growing up. Then it just disappeared from the stores.

@Maggie Nolia I just saw it at Safeway recently! I was amazed! I love bacon and I have a can of bean with bacon soup in my cupboard but this doesn't sound good to me personally. Gonna take a pass.

Most bacon that I've eaten is mostly fat. Making a cream out that sounds gross to me.

@drizzelllaI bought Campbell's Tomato Bisque soup for years and years. It was one of my favorites. But I couldn't tell you if it's available now, because I've sworn off of all ready prepared soups due to the high sodium content. Not a good idea for my high blood pressure.
