Heinz are great, aren't they, especially their soup range. It just goes to show that *SOME* good things come out of America, as it was a 25-year-old American called Henry John Heinz who started up this now multi-national giant of a corporation way back in 1868. I was reared on Heinz products, (amongst other things) and one of my favourites was always Heinz Oxtail Soup. (As well as their delicious baked beans) It has a really strong flavour of meat, or more specifically oxtail (surprise, surprise) and is just perfect for a confirmed carnivore like myself. In fact, when I'm sharing a tin of this soup with somebody else I always try to ensure I get the last ...  Read the complete review

Henry John Heinz founded his legendary food company in 1868 with, of all things, horseradish sauce. In 1910, Heinz Tomato Soup made its debut and twenty years later, Oxtail Soup was launched. Nowaday, Heinz sell 289 million cans of soup a year in the UK alone. Heinz Oxtail Soup comes in their trademark red label tins with a handy ring pull lid. It is available in two sizes - 300g and 400g. In appearance, Oxtail Soup looks a lot like gravy. Nice gravy, the sort your mum makes with all the crusty bits from the bottom of the roasting tin, but gravy nonetheless. It has a slight oily sheen to it and is medium brown in colour.

Heinz Oxtail Soup. Cold days are nearly upon us, I say at the mere change in the weather. Time to stock my cupboards with some of the winter favourites, Heinz being just one of those makes of food that we all know and love. Having shopped today in Asda's Supermarkets I happened to notice that they were selling soups 4 for the price of £3.00 which I considered to be a really good price. I picked a different selection of my four soups, as I prefer to vary the tastes of the soups that I try as I tend to get bore3d with having the same soup day in day out. These come in a metal can and I have notice3d that there is a pull ring on the top of ...  Read the complete review

Every time I go to the supernarket I am always faced with which brand of soup to get, should it be Baxters or even a home make but I always seem to go back to Heinz because I know the quality is very good and also Oxtail is my favourite and has always been. The best thing about Heinz is that the soups are always improving with the company being around for 100 odd years which has given it plenty of time to flourish. The only disadvantage I have noticed with Oxtail is that there seems to be less meat in it and more carrot as a filler produce. One of the major things that hasnt changed over the years is the packaging of the standard 400g tin which is ...  Read the complete review

Heinz Oxtail Soup: This is actually one of my favourite flavours of soups but I always forget it exists when I go to buy them but when I actually have this it always goes down a treat because I love it! I think Heinz make the best soups on the market and I love to have a whole tin full with some lovely crusty bread- my idea of heaven! Oxtail soup is made using tomatoes, beef, carrots, onion, red wine and oxtails. The soup is quite thick and it is deep red in colour which is more than likely caused by the tomatoes! This is a classic recipe and I love how it never fails to surprise me! This comes in a 400g tin which is more or less the ...  Read the complete review
