No, it’s worse now. Almost no meat, less veg, more pasta, thinner broth. And what’s still in it is lower quality, like I’m sure the meat is like 49% soy protein.
If you want good soup, you can’t get it in a can. (Except clam chowder. Just don’t get Campbells or Progresso.)
It was always that. Worked in the food retail sector earlier in my career and the Campbell’s Soup reps would joke that their two main ingredients were salt and hot water.
I loved Campbell’s soup as a kid. IDK if it’s worse now, but the main ingredient is salt. Maybe it always was and I once liked that.
Anyway, buying it if you’re poor is crazy, if you have any way to cook at home. There’s maybe 10 cents worth of ingredients in the can.
Campbell is mostly water barely anything else.

I used to think Progresso was ok, and sometimes went on sale relatively cheap. The main thing I still get in cans now though is TJ corn kernels.
