It was never "good," but it was once mediocre. My mother made "Bags of Gold," which were cheese biscuits in Tomato Soup. Good? No, but passable.

Their Tomato Soup now tastes like roadkill with salt. And don't get me started on Bean with Bacon...

No, there are better soups if you have the money.

In today's market, you need two things for Campbell's:

1. Little money.
2. No sense of taste whatsoever.

This is not your mother's or your grandmother's Campbell's Soup; this is a riff with really awful ingredients.

You don't have to buy it.

(And anyway, crap has a purpose.)

They aren't. They are far-far-right and delusional.

They can say anything they want, but it is for poor people. Have you tasted what they're like recently?
