Its not funny is it, but go on enjoy your Heinz cream of tomato soup and as you sip the pus and antibiotics also think about the poor cow who is made artificially pregnant for three years (you don't produce milk if your not pregnant) after having her calf taken away whilst she cry's and calls for it incessantly for days and then when her three years is up she is murdered and then put into Heinz oxtail soup.

I was going to have a can for lunch and now you have put me off it.

Now going to have a slice of veal in a lightly seasoned breadcrumb with a crispy green salad.

If more people were to eat veal, not so many male calfs would be slaughtered at birth.

I’ve not had Heinz Tom soup for ages but use to love it.
Interesting comment about the taste of tomatoes. I was in a supermarket in USA and there was a section where you had the choice of tomato flavoured tomatoes.

Now you're making it up. Tomato soup over here is often used for dunking a toasted cheese sandwich. Never fancied it myself, but a staple for kids in cold weather. (I am told)

Hate tomatoes but I'm a big fan of puss, so this is a staple for me :-)

Tomatoes are also very good for men.

Good for the old prostrate and improves blood flow for that healthy erection!

(By the way, you eat them and not rub them on.)

Actually meat and dairy products are THE number one cause of erectile dysfunction. If you have this problem it is because your blood flow is being restricted due to the cholesterol build up in your blood attaching to your veins and arteries as fat deposits. Often followed by a heart attack or stroke. Enjoy you Heinz cream of tomato soup.

I love tomatoes but hate tomato soup, so it obviously doesn't taste of tomato or I would like it!

I just sprinkle a little Viagra on my cheeseburger - evens things out.

Could it be that Tomatoes are a 'fruit'!!! LOL

Only when you put it on your hamburger!

I just drink straight from the ketchup bottle.

Getting back to the original question, we were given a load of tomato plants one year and ended up with a glut of them - the wife made them into soup and it was very similar to what you get from Heinz, albeit a bit more intense.

When I was a kid I loved the stuff, still do in fact. After a particularly barbaric visit to the school dentist, one side of my mouth was badly ulcerated, and the worst thing to get on it would be hot, salty soup. So, I ended up tilting my head to one side and drinking it through a straw, couldn't say no to it.

I'm old school when it comes to soups; Heinz cream of chicken, oxtail, leek & potato and tomato being my fav's.

However, my wife makes a wicked sweet corn chowder.

Of all the threads to get hijacked by the vegan/meaty debate, I didn't think it would be the vegetable soup one.

Will do.

To paraphrase Apocalypse now

I love the smell of cow pus in the morning
