I don't understand the appeal of tomato soup and grilled cheese, amirite?

And I respect that

Do you know that when cooking you can, like, adjust the taste to fit your palette? And being too sweet is like the easiest adjustment one could make, even after the soup has already been served some pepper should work just fine.

Yes, I cook a lot and am extremely experienced. But my issue is those who think grilled cheese and tomato soup out of the can are the bomb. I will probably experiment with different spices and can add flavor to the original soup.

I think people know what I mean when I say tomato soup.

Canned soup tastes like the can, especially tomato soup.

by FirstAd3857 1 month ago

Yes, and that's what most people eat.

It's literally just pizza. Proper tomato soup shouldn't have sugar. People claim to use it to tame acidity, but people easily go overboard

Generally I disagree, but I understand the sweetness thing. I always add onion powder and garlic to offset that

Preach. I love tomatoes, but tomato soup sucks ass.

Have you and it made with full fat milk and butter whisked into the soup? I hate tomato soup made with water, but with milk and butter it's something special.

IDK I've never made it, just tried various ones at restaurants or friends' houses.

Have you tried it?

The soup or grilled cheese and tomato soup? I've never tried grilled cheese with tomato soup because I hate tomato soup.

by StrategyThin 1 month ago

So maybe grilled cheese flavored tomato soup might be a better tomato soup.

by Firm-Net 1 month ago

As long as it's savory.

And here I was ready to make a crack about not putting your grilled cheese in the soup.

Yuk. It's better without the cheese.

I just think it's yuck in general.

by StrategyThin 1 month ago

I might try that. My main objection to tomato soup is the sweetness.

Comfort food

And? That doesn't address my aversion to the taste.

by StrategyThin 1 month ago

Don't eat it. I hate whipped cream. I don't eat it.

by Fit-Breadfruit 1 month ago

You need to make more appetizing than that. Unless you can improve the soup, I'm not interested.

by StrategyThin 1 month ago

Oh man, I love tomato soup. Especially with salt and vinegar chips dipped in it.

by Anonymous 1 month ago

Yes, but you're not loving it in its original form.

by StrategyThin 1 month ago

I hate tomato soup. I love grilled cheese. I don't understand why people like the combination. TBH, I've only had the canned version.

by StrategyThin 1 month ago

I disagree about the ketchup.

by StrategyThin 1 month ago

Me too. I think tomato soup is too sweet, and ketchup is too sweet. So, I add plenty of chilli flakes to my tomato soup. Then I dip buttered toast into it usually.

The only thing I use ketchup for is French fries.

by StrategyThin 1 month ago

I prefer either malt vinegar (i.e. salt & vinegar), or sriracha on fries.
