I hate milk in tomato soup. I wouldn't eat it as a child. Now I do eat
some that comes in a box. My mom was big on Campbell's soup. Lunch was
usually soup. I liked Scotch Broth, Vegetable, Vegetarian Vegetable, Beef
with Barley, Bean with Bacon and any of the Chicken and Noodle or Chicken
and rice. Now the only ones I eat are Bean with Bacon and Beef with Barley
and I don't eat them often.
