Retro: imitative of a style, fashion, or design from the past. Items considered to be "retro" are generally between 20-40 years old. That would mean anything that reflects the years between 1982 and 2002 would be retro now. Wow- those years really don't seem that long ago to me! This collection of Campbell's Soup memorabilia might not qualify since I don't quite recall when Campbell's Soup stopped advertising with the Campbell's Soup kids. I took this shot at Bill's Old Bike Barn and Museum- a place filled with Americana collectibles- back in February when our photo club went there. So it may not be authentically "retro" but it is authentically American! ;
Did you grow up with Campbell's Soup? What was your favorite? I liked the Alphabet Soup- I always tried to spell things with the pasta letters before I ate them.
How cute definitely remember Campbell’s soup. I did like Alphabet Soup, but when I was a little older I bought quite a bit of Mushroom and Tomato soups, because I could make just about anything with them using the Campbell’s Soup cookbook.
I remember Campbell's soup but we never had it at home - always the cheaper brands. Although when I was at university I remember it was one of my flatmate's turn to cook and he decided to make chicken pie. He couldn't be bothered to join the short queue at the butchers so he just used a tin of campbell's chicken soup. We were not impressed!
Thank you for all your views, comments and favs! I did like a lot of those flavors and I think we must have had soup quite a bit! Nowadays, I still use them for cooking although I usually buy the store brand most of the time.
@helenhall LOL I would not be impressed by that either!
No. My Mother alway`s made lovely and very delicious home made soup. In those day`s can soup was to expensive for us. Remmember I did steal some if there was a left over.
I think I would have to say my favorite was tomato soup probably followed closely by the alphabet soup
