Harris-Teeter Soup Station–Same Old

Though I am a bringer when it comes to lunch, I often venture out for soup. When the Harris-Teeter opened this spring, I thought, hey, here’s a great new source. My initial visits scored exciting new formulations, such as chicken tortilla soup and chicken noodle–both of which were pretty good and reasonably priced.

Weeks later, I am realizing that the H-T soup offerings have a limited bandwidth–it’s pretty much the same program each time–chicken tortilla, chicken noodle, chili, and perhaps some terribly fat-loaded chicken dumpling concoction. I would credit the pot roast soup with diversifying the menu, but that stuff is terrible.

Looks like I’m headed back to So’s Your Mom or the can!

    (”the can”! “leak”! not one, but TWO punchlines for geezerly 7th graders!)

    as you were…

    I’m wondering what would make you think a large grocery chain would have a diverse selection of soups? It’s pretty much the same as Giant.

  5. Kari Says:

    Yes, definitely check out the packaged soups in the case near the deli. It’s a cornucopia of soup diversity. There’s a really good crab bisque, and their tomato basil is pretty damn awesome too.
