15. Campbell's doesn't even taste like soup anymore.
Yuck.

I used to like the tomato soup, now all I taste is the sugar. I tried one of their new products, Special Select, or something like that. Went with the Potato/Broccoli/Cheese. Sounded good in theory. Tasted terrible in reality.

Chicken Noodle Soup aka: Noodles with three 1/4 inch cubes of chicken in brine is the only one I can think of that has not changed too much over the years.

13. Price went up on Smuckers too. I think the market was confused and thought Suckers.
Edited on Mon Sep-29-08 10:49 PM by avaistheone1
The market needs alot of Suckers to buy in to the existing bailout plan.

16. I read that sugar is going up 60+% in a few weeks...
If your family is into any pre-sweetened foods or drinks, you might want to stock up on those items, if you can afford to.

18. Those aren't made with sugar anymore.
They sweeten everything with high fructose corn syrup. Ick.
