What the heck were we eating before?

Saw this as I was dozing off last night.

Campbell’s Creations Soups had a tagline that said:

“Made with real vegetables, like celery, carrots and broccoli like you’d find in a homemade soup!”

All I could think was: So what the heck were we buying/eating from your brand before, Campbells!?!? Fake soup? Chemicals that taste like soup? Fake vegetables?

Bah.

How the heck do supermodels do it?

Does eating out make it taste better?

I’m starting to love cucumbers

How fat gets stored in your body and the history of eating grains

Against BF’s will, I made Chicken Soup

exactly what I was thinking back when McDonalds changed their nuggets to "now made with white meat" or something like that…. so… all those childhood memories eating nuggets included WHAT exactly?
Thank god I don't eat meat anymore and cook my soups from scratch

All those claims make me faintly amused and disgusted at the same time. HAHAHAHA

LOL. I haven't seen this ad yet. You should send them an inquiry to see what they say in return.

That is EXACTLY what I said when I was watching it. It's just tricky ad speak to make us ask the question. We think we were previously eating something not so good, so we make the switch to the "good, real" product.

The only positive I brought away from that, was that there is a soup in a can available with “real” ingredients.

But cans & boxes haven’t been part of our cooking for the past 3 years now.. so none of that works on me.
