Campbell's
Reviews and Complaints

I opened a can of Campbell's spring lamb soup and found a worm/grub floating on top. it was very obvious it was an insect and not a part of the vegetables from the soup. A friend examined it and agreed it was an insect. The can was not opened and there were no other signs of damage to the packaging.

My 8 year old daughter was eating Campbell's Scooby Doo Chicken and noodle soup, when she got a strange look on her face then started gagging. I asked her what was wrong when she handed me her spoon and there was a dark brown maggot looking bug on her spoon! This is absolutely unacceptable! We all lost or appetite and my daughter vomited several times because she actually ate several bites of soup before she noticed it! We will not be eating anything out of cans anymore, especially ANYTHING FROM CAMPBELL'S! So much for soup and sandwiches for dinner. Non of us really have an appetite now anyway! See photos below!

I had brought a Campbell soup to work for my lunch as per usual. I
Opened the can, put it in a bowl and threw it in the microwave. As I
carried my bowl of soup over to my desk, I hadn't noticed anything out
of the ordinary. I took a slurp. As I stirred the soup, I noticed
something black floating on the top. I just assumed it was a piece of
rice. I took a closer look and noticed it was to big to be rice. So I
scooped it out with my spoon and set it on a piece of Kleenex and
took a closer look.
Sure enough it was a BUG.

I am really disappointed to say I will never eat a bowl of #Campbell soup ever again.
I am terrified beyond belief and this has got to be one of the most scarring experiences I have ever
had. Some of you may think I am exaggerating, but if you are afraid of bugs, you know exactly what I am
talking about. I am sure there are many people who will continue to buy
Campbell soup, but unless you want some extra protein with legs and
antennas in your stomach... I suggest giving it a stir before you take a bite.

We had 6 cans in the cabinet. My husband opened one up and told me to come look. When I did the color of it wasn't right. It was really dark. So I started checking the cans. 4 out of the 6 we had were all that same way. The expiration date was the same on all 4. So was the numbers on the bottom. The 2 good cans had different expiration dates and different numbers on the bottom. They were all bought at Walmart.

I purchased a can of Campbells cream of Mushroom soup a couple of days ago from my local supermarket and when I opened it the top portion of the lid had what appeared to be black spotted mold on it and the soup itself had a grey and conjealed appearance. The bar code to this product located on the side of the can is [protected].

I purchase Campbells products frequently and was very discusted and disappointed in this product.

I purchased a can of Beef Noodle soup from a local grocery store in Brooksville, FL on 4/24/13, ( lot # of the can is included in the attached photo). As I opened up the can, I noticed something floating that did NOT look like a small piece of beef but instead appeared to have legs on it. As I scooped it out of the can I found that it did indeed have legs on it and it was NOT a small piece of beef but rather a small bug! (pic attached). As of today, I have officially banned Campbell's soup products

Sickest thing EVER!
I have loved mushroom soup my whole life...untill toaday. My dinner this evening came with a mystery ingredient.
It was about 1cm, black, crunchy with hair!
I'm not kidding, the hairs were about 3cm long. Yes I puked when I pulled it out of my mouth.
Dear god tell me it wasn't a piece of rat. It seriously looked like a large nasty mole.
I will now join the group of horrified consumers who have eaten tainted products and will share my story.

I bought a Family Size can of Vegetable Beef Soup and dumped it into the pan to cook it. There was a 4x3 " wad of Blue Plastic in the soup! Yes it grossed me out! I called the store and they said they would reimburse me but for $1.32 I wasn't going to drive clear across town again. I went to a closer store and bought the same type of can again. This time, however, the same can cost me $2.52 . We ate it but the vegetables were mushy and the soup base was extremely dark despite adding the appropriate amount of water. I looked at the numbers on the can and date and was surprised to find the exact numbers as the one I had bought from the other store! The only except ion was the expiration date on the 2nd can was 2014 and the first 2013. What I am assuming is the batch number, was the same on both... #12091

I was buying split pea w/ham Cambell Soup. It says Condensate on the can and usually when I open a can I have to use a knife or spoon to empty the can of course because it is condensate, and I add a can of water as per instructions. So far I am satified if when I open a can I have to use a knife oe a spoon to empty it. The problem that I had and this it happened to me at leat 5 to 6 times this year is when I open a can and the can if full of liquid w/so little of split pea w/ham. I found out that I probably had only (2) two tea spoons of spli peas w/ham and this is unacceptable to pay $1.44 to $1.60 a can at Publix and been screwed with a watery can.

When you buy it you dont know what to expect till you open and if it not condensate what are you supposed to do, you cannot return it! So you have to open an other can and hoping that this one is condensated and mix it with the watery one and hope to get the best of it. I love split pea w/ham Cambell Soup as long I get what I paid for it. This happened to me at leat 5 times this year and talking about last year that I had also the same problem a few times. I am asking the Company Cambell Soup to answer to me and send me something to compensate to their defaut product.

I pulled the plastic lid from the top of the container and found it covered in mold. This is not the actual lid to open the product, but the plastic lid used for heating. This is obviously a design flaw since the problem happened during shipment or storage. That doesn't change the fact that anything may enter the vent holes in the plastic lid during shipment and storage. This product should be wrapped in plastic for safety. I will not purchase any product with a vented lid again that is not wrapped in plastic.

I was enjoying a lovely dinner with my mother and she was eating Campbells steak and potato chunky soup. She had just commented on how good it tasted when she lifted her spoon out of her bowl and this chunk of multiple hairs was hanging off of it! My mother has average lenth hair and the hair in the can very long. It was so disgusting that she had to throw the whole thing out and nearly threw up the sight was so gross. We will never eat Campbells again.

Campbells gave us a recipe for Sloppy Joes many years ago in the 1960's containing Chicken Gumbo soup, it was the best recipe my family and many others nationwide have used over the years. After researching east and west coast, midwest people are looking for this soup and it no longer exists...they now have it marked light and say it is the same but their light soup has 70 calories their regular chicken gumbo had 60...now how is that light. They took the regular off the market and don't bother with the light version as it is all water based. Look for a good generic or contact Campbells [protected] and ask for someone in corporate. AT CS all you get is I will take your report. Sparkie1501

Campbells makes a regular condensed Chicken Gumbo soup that I have used in my sloppy Joe recipes for over 25 yrs and so has my family and friends. This made the best slopply joes we ever had.
I can no longer find it and the only thing I can find is the LIGHT version which sucks. It is soupy, runny and you cannot make good sloppy joes with it anymore.

Why do big companies ruin a good recipe when it works great?
Why do they think LIGHT is healthier when it actually is NOT?
It contains far more chemicals and additives than regular condensed soups.

IF I have to and they do not continue to make this soup regular style, I will switch all my soups to another brand.

If you have a cold or flu, do your kidneys a favor. Do not buy Campbell's Chicken Noodle soup. It's so salty you'll pass a stone after the 1st spoon. 27% sodium - "Less Sodium"?! Campbell's, why do you put so much salt? Flavor?! If you want to stay in business, you'll take heed of this post. No substitute for homemade soup. -- Los Angeles

I have used campbell's soups for 48 years. Chicken noodle is our favorite, but last week I got two cans and opened the first one and the soup base was a gold color and did not taste good. So I opened the second can and it was the same. That is so sad it has been changed. It is not nearly as good as it was.

I peggy hunter found a piece of silver plastic in my soup. I am very stressed over this. I almost swallowed the whole thing. I had to choke it up. It looks like it may go to one of your machine, s to make the soup. I am sending this piece to you. I took a few pictures of it, please contact me.[protected].

When I arrived, home from work yesterday, my husband called me into the kitchen.
He had opened a can of Campbells Condensed Vegetable Soup to find a thick layer of mold under the lid. It was disgusting!
I had bought a case of it a couple of months ago, as I normally do, when I need to fill the pantry.
I am wary to open another can of soup now. Campbell's Soup, or any other. Has anyone else experienced this?

So back on january 5th, 2010 I was enjoying my favorite soup, the creamy chicken and dumplings soup. I noticed something in it which turned out to be a beetle. Brown and abot 1/4"long, 1/8" wide. I called in and was asked how I had prepared the soup, if I had eaten it (sadly, yes) and would it be okay to compensate me. Seeing that I was out my $1.50 for the soup I said sure. I got an apologetic letter and coupons from them.

I told my dad about the beetle and he said never again in your life will you see that and chuckled.

I have not eaten soup since that day and purchased some over the weekend. Today is feb 3, 2010. I figured I would be okay to try the soup again and no kidding, I dumped the can into my pyrex bowl and the same beetle as last time comes flopping out. I called into campbles and spoke to a gal who ended up laughing with me because it is gross, she even said so. She also asked me to see if I could find any other beetles. When I glanced in the bowl I found a worm, a worm! So two for the price of one this time.

I had her look up the can info from my first run in and it is the same as the can I have now. So obviously nothing was done. How gross. The factory number is on the bottom of the can and in the lower left hand corner. It is p5.

She said she is going to send me out coupons, great. Like I used the ones from the time before. But really, there needs to be something done about this and seeing these other posts almost makes me want to cry!
