Campbell's Chunky New England Clam Chowder

 I have never understood clam chowder nor how it can be New England. I don't know what makes one different from the other, but I guess if I read up on it more I would find out. The  idea of eating clams in and of itself is lost on me as they are the water filter for the ocean and full of things that other things poop out. 

Thus, Campbell's Chunky New England Clam Chowder left an odd taste in my mouth. Don't get me wrong, we eat vegetables which are fed off the poop of other animals so clams aren't abnormally poop filled. I just never saw why we eat them.

I guess you could say that this stuff is mostly potato chowder with the clam being sprinkled in. It hasn't much flavor and is, as I often say, unoffensive. 

It's food like this that makes me ask, 'what is it that I'm looking for in a canned soup?' I mean, really, what should I be saying about this stuff?

Campbell's Chunky Savory Chicken with White and Wild Rice Soup

 Campbell's Chunky Savory Chicken with White and Wild Rice Soup is passable. It is everything written on the tin. It could have had a few herbs to give it flavor and more vegetables, but if you want those things you can add them yourself. 

Canned soup is made to not offend people and this does not offend me. I'm not the biggest fan of soup, but needing to try something new I'm not sorry I found this. 

Stuff is okay.

 

Campbell's Chunky Spicy Steak & Potato Soup

 Campbell's Chunky Spicy Steak & Potato Soup doesn't look that chunky. I mean, in the picture it just looks like soup. Then again chunky soup is just stew so it really is as chunky as it should be without adding stew to the name. 

Anyway, it wasn't spicy enough for me to reach for water. In addition, this is on the simple side with few ingredients.  This wasn't bad, but it wasn't life changing. I'm not sad that I can't get more, because I need to try new things for this blog. 

If you're not a spice lover and you need to clear your nose out this is a top soup. I would even go to say that it would be good to keep a can of this on hand. Still, if you like spicy then this will disappoint. 

Campbell's Chunky Baked Potato with Cheddar and Bacon Bits Soup

Campbell's Chunky Baked Potato with Cheddar and Bacon Bits Soup tastes like potato chowder. There is no hint of the bacon or cheddar advertised. 

It sounds so good, but is so there that I wouldn't recommend it. There was nothing wrong with this it just wasn't as good as I thought it would be. 
 

Campbell’s Chunky Old Fashioned Vegetable Beef Soup

 This is the time for soup and Campbell’s Chunky Old Fashioned Vegetable Beef Soup is soup. I mean, it is light on the chunky but then do you want soup to be chunky? 

As soup goes, I don't care. I really feel indifference towards this soup. Given that canned soup can be thought of as a survival food then indifference isn't a bad reaction. It also has an easy flip top lid so no can opener is needed. The only problem is when I opened this my cats came running because they thought it was for them. 

The only think I would change about this would be to add some black or red beans to make it more filling, and add some pepper to give it flavor. After that, it kind of just is. 

Campbell's Chunky Hearty Cheeseburger Soup

Campbell's Chunky Hearty Cheeseburger Soup needs more burger with all that cheese ish stuff. From a taste level this stuff isn't all that bad. I mean, it didn't remind me of a cheeseburger, but well, it was like some kind of chowder.

All and all, not bad. 

Campbell's Chunky Chicken Corn Chowder

Campbell's Chunky Chicken Corn Chowder is sure on the watery side of things. I'm not sure what corn chowder is supposed to taste like but I figured it would be thicker. It does have chunks in it, not a great number, but they are there. 

This thing is an okay snack for lunch. Not great but definitely there. 

Campbell's Chunky Grilled Chicken & Sausage Gumbo

Well, I got a bunch of these to keep in my work bag to give to the homeless, and I will say you need to be hungry to eat them. My brother had one cold and it sucked.

Now, these are kind of good for you so if you need to keep something healthy around for one of those "I feel too much like crap to cook" days this will work for you. Not great, but they get the job done.
