Do you buy instant or canned soups? Those types where you just put the contents in a pan and bring the soup to a boil and voila...you have soup! What are the brands that you like or are your favorites? Also, what variants of these instant or canned soups do you prefer?

My all time favorite is Campbell;s tomato soup. besides the I like the chinese soup varieties by Knorr - sweet corn and hot & sour. They really make for a very easy, quick and healthy meal.

Thank you for your response! I'm looking forward to trying Campbell's tomato soup. I seem to fail whenever I try to look for this in the supermarket. I also like the Chinese soup varieties of Knorr. My favorite's the Crab and Corn and Chicken and Corn varieties. Yum! (Just add one egg! LOL)

Oh yes, I am a big fan of instant noodles. Haha! I don't cook much so I would go for anything instant like noodles and canned goods. Hmm, I like beef mamis, chicken noodles, pancit cantons, la paz batchoy, all variants of Century tuna (lolz), corned beef, Vienna sausage, and more. I like them spicy, too. =)I know it sounds ridiculously pathetic but I am sometimes, that's why when I go home ('cause I live independently since college), I would really prefer to eat those homemade delicacies that I crave for most of the time. hehe

we only stock in canned chicken noodle soup and other cream soups for emergency purposes only 'coz the family would always prefer homemade foods than the ready to eat or take outs. for the cream of mushroom that i always take from grocery is not for plain soup but i use it with my cooking for chicken casserole, gravy for my burgersteak, sauce for porkchop and even for mixed vegetable dish.

I usually buy instant soup like chicken macaroni soup, chicken noodle soup, mushroom soup and nido soup. My favorite brand is Knorr. Sometimes i just heat water and pour the content, but if i will serve it for my kids i usually add veggies and eggs. I also use the instant soup for flavoring some of my favorite dishes, like the mushroom soup i usually add it to my "nilaga."

yes,but not as often because they say it contains a lot of preservatives and msg and stuff that is not actually good for the body..i like mushroom soup or crab and corn and corn soup..they really taste good..i also like nido soup because it of it's light taste..the brand is knorr,they are actually a lot less expensive than campbells and other expensive brands

Canned Soup will be the best. Why? It taste more real than the instant kind. The instant kind of soup definitely taste instant. hahaha... I love campbell and swear by it. I don't really like the taste of other brands. Campbell appeals to me more. I like vegetable soup, borsch soup, mushroom soup, etc. I am a soup lover.

We dont eat them often because of the salt content but I always try to keep a few on hand for quick lunches. When I'm sick I always eat campbells chicken noodle soup just like when I was a kid. When were broke we eat ramen noodles.
