I highly rate this soup range, tried most varieties, but chicken and corn is a highlight. A cheap, filling and fairly nutritious (3.5 star) feed.
Varieties include;
You can find nutritional information on the WW site. Theres 10 types I could find. Permanent price drop.
Chicken & Corn Soup
Chicken & Vegetable Soup
Chicken Noodle Soup
Chunky Vegetable Soup
Malaysian Style Chicken Laksa Soup
Minestrone Soup
Pea & Ham Soup
Potato & Leek Soup
Pumpkin Soup
Tomato Soup
What, no steamed clams?
No. It seems they just premixed the continental cup-a-soups and put them into plastic containers so you dont need to BYO water.
They’re way better than cup o soup. Can’t compare them, or steamed clams
Yeah but that’s just an Albany expression
@Jimothy Wongingtons: There's a lot that happens in Albany - like how I can see the Aurora Borealis at this time of year, at this time of day, in this part of the country, localised entirely within my kitchen
May I see it?
And where is the evidence of this ?
Seymourrrrrr
Isn't it steamed hams?
Clams was what he said he was making, then it became hams.
I barely remember the episode, it was so long ago!
These are really good soups for the price.
Its been $2.50 since 2 months ago, I think.
Laksa one is good.
Yeah "Price dropped" tag isn't a sale or discount, it's their new everyday/seasonal price.
Looks like on the 19/4/2022 the price dropped.
I really like their pumpkin soup. The chicken and corn was meh though.
You can get a whole kilo of pumpkin for $2.50
I make pumpkin soup occasionally, thanks for the advice. You're excluding the cream, onion, garlic, stock and not to mention the 2 hours it usually takes to make.
you just need a leek, water and salt…
The goal of pumpkin soup is not to drink a pumpkin.
$2.50 is the normal price.
This is not a bargain.
It's not. I often see it for $4 (NSW).
The photo posted in the deal confirms the price has been $2.50 for the last 3 months

Not my local woolworths metro mate - maybe they charge a higher premium
@CptnObvious: woolworths metro do not have the same prices for many items and lots of weekly sales items are excluded there too.
@CptnObvious: if it was called woolworths mini people might think less variety of items ….call it metro and people don’t know it has less variety until they are in the store …..
@CptnObvious: Woolworths metros are in smaller footprint, high traffic areas like CBDs. Their prices are higher for two main reasons. Firstly, they pay much higher rent per square metre than suburban stores or in shopping centres. Could be up to 50 times higher in some extreme cases.
Secondly, they literally price gauge metro store customers because they know that the clientele makes more money on average than the usual shopper in the suburbs and they will also pay highly for the convenience of grabbing something during their lunch break/after work before getting the train home, instead training home, getting the car, driving to the local Woolworths, then driving back home.

So he's feeding you…
Gasp for once I have to agree with jv….. it hurts…
You may have made his/her day with this comment.
This is actually expensive for a small tub of soup. I usually wait for the clearance price (of around $1-1.50) to hit at my local, tastes just the same.
Your username disagrees
Some light hearted Aussie sarcasm mate
I would probably spend a dollar more to buy a Campbell's Soup Can for $3.50 (500g)
The containers are pretty good too.
I keep them and re use them for other food or to store things in.
Because they stack into each other they take up minimal space when they are empty.
You sound like you’re affiliated lol
I work for Multi Purpose Space Soup Container Pty Ltd, we are trying to be a sustainable alternative to other companies selling containers that only come with air inside them.
Ours come with delicious soup AND can store things after the soup is gone without leaking (some of our competitors aren't very good at the not leaking part)
Your newsletter, subscribe me to it!
@marklar: We are too busy building Multi Purpose Space Soup Container forts in our spare time to write a newsletter that everyone else will delete and only you will not read.
Subscribe to the Dbrand newsletter, we like it.
And if enough people subscribe to it t GB E Dbrand robots might make skins for our containers!
To be fair, in space, a container of air could be more useful than a container of soup
@NoApostrophePlurals: Our containers aren't very good in space, the vacuum of space is just to strong for them :(
I guess I should have said
Ours come with delicious soup AND can store things after the soup is gone without leaking when used under normal atmospheric conditions
@spaceflight: Hahah I'm digging the joke theme but I don't think you understand how space works :p
Vacuum in space is the opposite of what you're thinking, it's not strong, it's weak. There's no atmospheric pressure, close to zero :)
@NoApostrophePlurals: That right.
Because our containers are only designed normal atmospheric conditions a container of air would not be more useful than a container of soup as both of them would be useless because the higher pressure inside the container would force the lid off and all of the delicious soup or breathable air would spread through the vast vacuum of space :(
Because they stack into each other
Soon you'll be able to reach the space.
Never thought to do this. Good idea
Slightly unrelated but; anyone know where I can get Borsch in like a can or prepackaged like this?
Thanks jv, for…uhh…everything.
quick google reveals https://www.desertcart.com.au/Borscht-Soups/s?q=Borscht%20So… but wow .. some of those prices

Thanks mate, ordered one for me and one for the missus.
Look for a continental deli? There is a Russia deli in balaclava (Vic) that sells borscht
Genuine question. I usually just get the cans of Chunky or Country Ladle when they're on special. Are these fridge ones really that much better?
Dunno how anyone can call these filling lol
Canned products go through a high heat treatment process that while preserving the food inside the can (practically forever), destroys much of the flavors as most flavors are fragile compounds susceptible to heat.
These products obviously go through a much lower heat treatment process (cooking) which means a short shelf-life and requires refrigeration. However, more flavors are retained due to the lower heat and thus they should taste better.
Way too salty
Why?, what happened to you?
Will try… I normally get the Campbells country ladle but these look like they’d be worth a go and look more respectable in the work tea room at least.
Wish they had an in-store microwave to heat it up
Just walk into the staffroom
With confidence. No-one will suspect a thing with that alone, right?
Never have luck finding the Malay Style Chicken Laksa in store. It's so good.
Yep last one and I just picked it up. Ppl love this flavour(don't blame them)

I recently tried these, they heaps better than the more expensive chilled soups. They do have long expiry too.
They aren't as good as Dari which go on sale every other week at coles/woolies for $5 (550g)
https://shop.coles.com.au/a/national/everything/search/dari%…
That's not better flavour, just double the salt.
Dari Tomato has 220 per 100g, WW is 160 per 100g
Not over the top.
The Dari Lentil soup is 293 per 100g, but WW doesn't have a lentil soup.
Those are the only two I buy.
Prefer Dari Tomato based on ingredients also
Dari Tomato ingredients:
Tomato (65%), water, cream (milk), onion, sugar, tomato paste, salt, garlic, pepper, herbs.
WW Tomato:
Tomato (56%) (Tomato, Acidity Regulator (330)), Water, Onion (5%), Carrot Cream (Milk), Garlic (2%), Celery, Canola Oil, Modified Maize Starch (1422), Vegetable Stock Powder, Brown Sugar, Basil (0.6%), Paprika, Salt, Parsley, Pepper
Where about are these located? Tried to find some in Townhall woolies but couldn't :(
They are in the refrigerated soup section, which for me in my WW is near the Deli.
Coles ones are the same price, how do they compare?
Still $3 online in Karingal Vic
Thanks op. Love the potato and leek soup!
