samboy Posted December 16, 2022 Report Share Posted December 16, 2022 Hi gang. I do like a tin of the chicken and veg. A couple of years ago it was 80p then £1.20 now £1.70. Won't be buying anymore. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

harrycatcat1 Posted December 16, 2022 Report Share Posted December 16, 2022 I always find Heinz soups have a high salt content. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rob85 Posted December 17, 2022 Report Share Posted December 17, 2022 I keep a few tins of the beef and potato one about for work, especially on a cold nightshift its a handy one for the microwave. Only buy them on offer mind! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
amateur Posted December 17, 2022 Report Share Posted December 17, 2022 My wife cooked a ham in the slow cooker yesterday, so today the reserved cooking liquor has had leeks, carrots, squash, celery, garlic and a pinch of herbs added to it and it's been seething in the slow cooker all day. It will be smoothly blended and dished up with a hunk of homemade bread and a thick slice of the ham for tea tonight. It's not worth working out what it cost!

One that my dear old Yorkshire grandma would use (the verb, not the slow cooker. She had a Rayburn). Has the soup calmed down? Well, half of it was eaten yesterday, probably finish it tomorrow. Freshly baked bread and cheese and pickle today. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bigbob Posted December 18, 2022 Report Share Posted December 18, 2022 I prefer to make my own a soup pack for £1 just got to peel everything and a couple of hours simmering The wife likes the liquid from the top and i prefer the chunky lumps from the bottom , As my wife says mines is more like stew and i can add more potatoes or onions to top it up Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
