It was only a couple of years ago that I actually bothered to find out what mulligatawny soup actually was. For some reason I'd always thought it sounded Scottish and would be a broth of some sort. I suppose I could not have been much further from what it actually is with it basically being a curry soup of East Indian origin. Packaging / labelling The Heinz version of this soup comes in the standard 400g tin adorned with the classic Heinz labelling and a ring pull lid which opens with fairly limited effort. The front of the label shows a bowl of the steaming soup which, according to the image, looks light brown in colour and contains what looks like ...  Read the complete review

As far as soups go, I was happy with the basic explanation of what soup you can find in the tin from the title. For example- Tomato soup = tomato flavour; pea & ham soup = pea & ham flavour; chicken soup = chicken flavour and so on. I recently got a little stuck in the supermarket when I stumbled across the section of the soup shelf which confused me a little. I found a can of "mulligatawny" soup on the shelf and my first impression from the title alone, I figured it was possibly Welsh (I have no idea why) in the same way "Scotch Broth" is going to be a thick broth of Scottish descent vegetables ( I have Aspergers, bear with me- this is how I  Read the complete review

Anyone who has read any of my reviews hopefully realises that Im definitely not a Brand snob and Im quite prepared to try any product, however if it doesn't meet my needs or taste buds, I revert back. Heinz soups is definitely on my Brand only list at the moment. Heinz has definitely been around all my lifetime but I was still surprised to learn it was founded in 1869 by Henry John Heinz. Primarily making ketchup, but also the leading seller of baked beans, its the 57 varieties slogan that has been the feature throughout my childhood. Heinz markets its products in 200 countries but originally came from Pittsburg, Pennsylvania. ...  Read the complete review

Mulligatawny soup is such an interesting and delicious tasting soup but it is not universally heard of or enjoyed. I however enjoy eating it and relish the spice of the soup. The soup is in effect a curry in a soup! That would be how I'd describe it to someone! The soup is in a tin can with a ring pull lid which makes it easier to open. As soon as you open the tin the extremely strong smell of spices/curry hits you and almost makes your mouth water the smell is so strong. As you pour the soup out into the saucepan you can see the soup and its contents more clearly. It is a bright brown colour (I would say a cross between tomato soup and oxtail soup) and is ...  Read the complete review

Heinz is a big tinned food production company, in fact you could make a conspiracy theory's about them, that are that big. They are easily available pretty much every ware, they have taken their places in any shelves on every supermarket you can think off in UK, I dread to think what is outside UK when it comes to Heinz, I will probably find out they have takes over other countries too. My husband came home with a ready made tinned soup called Mulligatawny. Half of tin has 104 calories and will make a great lunch to share with your partner especially if you are trying to loose weight. Or just eat the entire tin yourself for lunch as is only 208 calories and ...  Read the complete review
