I just had a nice bowl of Heinz Tomato soup. A classic evergreen. The 'What's Going On' of soups if you like but without the political spin or Marvin going about how his hair is long (look in a mirror, Marvin). So what fine soups do people recommend on testicle shrinking days like today.

Used to do a few home mades myself in the days when i had a bit more time on my hands.
But for convenience, like mr b., i would favour a tin of heinz tomato with thick sliced white bread (the kind that comes sliced). folowed up with a packet of salt and vinegar crisps and a nice sleep.Endless Tripe

both with a nice chunk of "open university" soda bread, of course.
Also check for this cheeky little spinach number too - I suggest a cheese accompaniment of your choice:
Ingredients
2 tbsp olive oil
145g/5oz fresh spinach leaves
1 garlic clove, finely chopped
350ml/12fl oz vegetable stock
55ml/2fl oz double cream
freshly ground black pepper
Method
1. Heat the oil in a medium sauté pan.
2. Sauté the spinach until just wilted.
3. Stir in the garlic for 30 seconds.
4. In a liquidiser, blend the spinach with the stock and cream and season.
5. Serve.
Word!Let him have the lot for £2.00 - we were only going to throw 'em out anyway...

I was in Boston a few years ago and sampled Garlic soup - really quite a nice mellow taste to it. We were served by a chap who looked and sounded like Greg Proops,who asked when we ordered coffee:
"Would you be wanting cow-juice with that?"Now this!

Mind you I am not a fan of crisps and have described Cheese & Onion crisps as one of the worlds most effective contraceptives that stays within the doctrine of the Catholic church.Enthusiastic vagueness passes for scholarship in the twilight world of the disc-jockey.

I'm not really a soup fan (the nerd in me find's it's avoidance of strict categorisation as either food or beverage most problematic). That said, I do have very fond memories of  Heinz tomato soup, with large chunks of French bread, round at my great great aunt's when I was a kid. Can't stand the stuff nowadays mind. ÂÂ
If was to recommend one, it'd be one of Blue Dragon's canned Thai soups. Very hot (by my standards) and probably more of curry, owing to the amount of veg included.
You freeking scientologists are all the same, quible, dribble and then demand ice creams. Ohhhhhhhhhhh.

The other half has recently made up a batch of chestnut/chickpea soup (tomatoes, garlic, onion, stock, olive oil...) after having it in Italy. Now that's what I call soup!a giant steam-powered turntable in warwickshire plays six foot cement recordings of Prince Albert's speeches to the rejoicing populace
