I feel temptation when I walk by them in the store.
If I give in and purchase one, I then feel disappointment since they're never very good.
Then comes the feelings of shame over having been so foolish.
After that I usually watch some anime to cheer myself up, that usually makes me feel pretty happy.

It's pretty bad. Soup is so easy and cheap to make yourself, and will be magnitudes of order better than anything canned if you put even a little bit of effort in. So I just don't really see the point.

If a can of soup is only 1 dollar, it's worth it.
They're good just to have around for a dinner emergency. Or maybe you wake up one day sick as a dog and you don't feel like cooking. Or you don't have much of an appetite but should have a few sips of something.
Though in the current economic climate, a can will run you 2 or 4 dollars.

Yeah that's pretty fair and not a bad idea.
They last for years so it makes sense to keep one or two around. Every now and then I'll have planned poorly and am 1 meal short before grocery shopping, so it's good to have non-perishable backups.

All soup is ass, miss me with that watery bullshit. Cans are even worse because they have next to no seasoning so they can cut back on costs. Anything you can make a soup out of would be 100% better if you just put it into a pan and fried it.

Some are better than others. Clam chowder, Italian Wedding, and that creamy wild rice and chicken, are all better and cheaper than trying to make it from scratch. Everything else sucks

I don't think soup with vegetables or potatoes or cheese is terrible but I'm not eating that weird canned meat.

Pick up a bunch when on sale. Shove em in the back of the cabinet for when I am sick or otherwise don't want to cook, which is rare. They are more a convenience item rather than a proper tasting meal. The Old El Paso canned soups are surprisingly good though, I recommend them.

Curious why you say this? Usually instant noodles are just carbs and salt. Canned soups usually have more meat, veggies, and other such good stuff. (not including using instant noods as a base for a meal) Not trying to be a "uhhm akchually", just genuinely want more explaination.

The jeet hortons canned soups are really good but pretty expensive. I guess you're paying for the premium of avoiding the risk of contracting e coli had you bought it from the actual store.

Over salted garbage with a ton of chemicals in it. My family eats soup once a week and we always cook it from scratch. It's not that hard.

I used to eat Campbell's chinky fairly often. But they got to be too expensive to justify having regularly. As time went by and I learned to cook, I discovered how easy it is to make my own soups with whatever random ingredients I have on hand. Now canned soups taste terrible and I wonder if they were that bad always or if the quality has actually plummeted that drastically over the years.

VERY overpriced where I live (Denmark).
I could make a huge pot myself for the price of a can. And it's not like soup is hard work.

I used to eat a lot of it in college because it's easy. Now I just freeze soup that I make and have a bunch in my fridge. Canned soup usually isn't bad it's just bland so you have to try to kick it up with hot sauce and garlic powder or something to give it some taste.

>Canned soups usually have more meat,
No they fucking don't. The fuck you smoking anon? Canned and instant have similar servings of meat, one is just dried. Canned has ALWAYS been light on meat, unless you are getting a literal can of meat (which is like $4-5 now). Canned soups is basically water, salt, and whatever the mfg was willing to piss into the can, which is never much. Most cans are ~350 cal or less.
Just to check, I looked at a random campbells soup and a instant noodle cup. Similar protein levels (the instant noodle was a bit smaller). The soup even had more salt! Canned soup is pretty much as garbage as instant noodle. They don't even have enough veg in them. Half the time they cheap out and throw tons of potato in them.
That is why I keep canned veg on hand. Will throw a little cup of carrot or corn into a soup to thicken it up with actual ingredients. Add a bit of canned meat and it's an ACTUAL meal.
Canned soups are basically mostly salt water/stock with some tiny bits of meat and veg added. That being said, stuff like Dinty Moore actually makes a solid can of meat and potatoes. It's not great, but it beats the fuck out of the "soup" section.
Anons really should make their own soups. Canned veg and frozen veg are perfect here! Same with canned meat. Soups & stews fix canned meat.
