WARNING: Deli Inspired Disappointment

Image
Browsing through my local supermarket (one of my favourite places to browse) I happened across Baxters Deli Inspired range.  Cue excitement!  Deli Inspired soup!  I thought, "oh my, this will be better than your run of the mill tinned soup!  I must try it!" I selected the 'Italian Wedding Soup'.  Follow my blog with Bloglovin Italian wedding soup is actually a mistranslation.  Minestra maritata means married soup and refers to the complementary flavours of the green vegetables and meat in the soup.  Baxters promise a taste of the Mediterranean.  A marriage of flavours.  What they deliver is a marriage between Baxters Fray Bentos Meatballs in Tomato Sauce and tinned spaghetti.  With a few bits of vegetable floating in the gloup.  Not as advertised.  Don't waste your time.  At least with a tin of spaghetti or meatballs you get what you are expecting.
