What Do You Do With Canned Soup?
- Cherylptw Mar 20, 2013 01:38 AM
I stopped buying canned soup years ago once discovering how easy it was to make my own but I do have a few cans of the stuff that was "gifted" to me and I find ways to use it up. One of my favorite with the condensed tomato soup is to make a recipe that used to be on the soup can when I was growing up; basically a browned pork chop smothered in tomato soup, onions & bell peppers then baked until tender. I still love this dish.
Other dishes are a potato casserole with french onion soup; queso taco soup with cheddar cheese soup, seasoned taco meat, roasted jalapenos and crispy tortilla strips over the top; and I use chicken with white & wild rice as a base for a chicken and wild rice pot pie with some additions.
What are some innovative dishes you make with canned soup?
There's really only three places I used canned soup.
I use condensed cream of mushroom soup in my old fashioned sandwich press (I call it the flying saucer sandwich maker) - it crimps together two pieces of bread with a slightly liquid filling, and is then toasted over the burner of the stove.
I also use it as a base for a few casseroles - the tuna/noodle/green bean variety in particular.
I also like eating undiluted cream of mushroom soup, but that's just a weird personal quirk.
The kids' favourite mac and cheese starts with a can of tomato soup warmed up, milk, butter and cheese are added to it and then the cooked elbow noodles. It all gets topped with more cheese. I have a home daycare and all of the kids love this and they must tell their parents about it because I always get asked how I make my mac and cheese. I am always embarrassed to admit it starts with a can of soup!
I haven't made it in years, but I used to use can of golden mushroom soup as the sauce for the meat layer in my sheperd's pie. I sometimes use the golden mushroom soup along with some onions over a roast in the slow cooker, makes a decent gravy.
In our house we make a very tasty clam chowder in the slow cooker using a tin of cream of mushroom soup.
Generally though, I don't use tin soup. I do keep tomato and mushroom in stock as it makes a versatile back up plan ingredient.
I've eschewed canned soups for a while now, but recently found myself cutting out coupons for Campbell's soups and think I'll keep some cream soups in stock because they make casseroles etc. so quick and easy.
Up until about 2 years ago, I was addicted to Campbell's tomato soup, but not so much anymore. I like to use their mushroom and celery soup for dishes such as tuna casserole and chicken cordon bleu.
re: greygarious
My mom made nearly the same thing! Served with rice to soak up the sauce....
re: docfood
We have a couple cans of the chicken noodle variety of Campbell's for sick people and that is about it.
I eat Progresso canned soups nearly daily for lunch. Yes, it's easy/better for me to make a pot of soup but I don't like dealing with the volume.
Every few months I get a craving for Campbells Cream of Chicken soup so I'll mix that up with some milk and heat and eat. It's amazing. I grew up eating it.
Beyond that, those canned cream of soups have no place in my cooking.
re: eperdu
Progresso lentil soup was one of my dad's favorites and we ate it often. I haven't had it in years but I have fond memories.
I do keep some around as "emergency food" in the event of losing power, a big earthquake, etc. but of course, they have to be rotated like any other pantry food.
We get sick so infrequently that I occasionally have to just suck it up and eat soup. More often than not I just pass it off on the man and put it in his lunch. :)
I stopped eating bread but grilled cheese and tomato soup was a rainy day favorite. I still make it for him. Cans of veggie soup can always be
doctored up" with more stock, more veggies and herbs/ spices or even pureed and added to a soup or stew.
What are some innovative dishes you make with canned soup?
There is nothing innovative that I do with canned soup other than pop the top and heat. Only Campbell's double noodle soup will do when my son is sick so thats the only canned soup we have in the house.
I do often doctor up the ready made soups at WF. While carrot/ginger soup is a regular in crock pot rotation I will pick up theirs when time is tight. I will add extra ginger, maybe some garam masala and stir in some cooked chicken for protein.
Here's a favorite canned soup recipe that we've been enjoying for decades. Whether it's "Chowhound correct" or not doesn't matter to us. We still enjoy it:
Bacardi1 Chicken Parisienne
One pkg. (usually containing 2-3) bone-in, skin-on, split chicken breasts
One can Cream of Mushroom soup (the regular condensed version, NOT the "non-fat" one)
1/2 to 3/4 soup-can of dry sherry
1-2 tablespoons unsalted butter
One 8 oz. pkg. fresh button mushrooms, cleaned & sliced, OR, in a pinch, one 8 oz. can mushroom pieces, drained
One 8 oz. container sour cream
paprika (sweet or hot)
chopped Italian flat-leaf parsley
Cooked white rice for serving
Preheat oven to 350.
In a skillet large enough to hold all sauce ingredients except chicken, saute fresh mushrooms (if using) in butter until brown & tender. Remove from heat. Stir in can of soup, & use soup can to measure in 1/3-1/2 can of dry sherry. Stir to combine. (If using canned mushrooms, just drain & combine with other ingredients.)
Place chicken pieces skin-side down in lightly-greased baking dish. Place in center of oven & bake for 20 minutes. After 20 minutes, turn chicken pieces skin side up & continue to bake for 10 minutes. Pour sauce (reserving saucepan) over & continue cooking until done (depending on the size of the pieces, another 10-20 minutes).
When done, turn off oven, remove chicken pieces to a plate, & scrape sauce & juices back into the reserved skillet. Place chicken back into baking dish & back into turned off oven to keep warm.
Meanwhile, over medium/low heat, add sour cream to sauce in saucepan & heat just until warmed through. (Overheating or boiling will cause sour cream to curdle. Won't affect the taste, just won't look as nice.)
Serve chicken alongside plain white rice - both with sauce poured over & sprinkled with a little paprika & chopped parsley.
Apart from the white rice, I like to serve this with plain boiled buttered baby carrots & a green salad.
And here's yet another favorite. Oddly enough, we have yet to be drummed from the community for this one:
Bacardi1 Quickie Shrimp Newburg
One pound medium or large peeled, shelled, & deveined shrimp – thawed if frozen**
One can condensed "Cream of Shrimp" soup (put out by Campbell's)
Approx. 1/3 to ½ soup can measure of milk, ½ & ½, or cream – whatever you have on hand
Approx. ¼ to 1/3 soup can (or to taste) of dry sherry
Dash of ground nutmeg
Dash of hot sauce
Unsalted butter
Freshly-ground black pepper to taste (optional)
Approx. ¼ cup chopped fresh Italian flat-leaf parsley (optional)
Cooked white rice for serving
Melt enough butter to lightly coat the bottom of a skillet large enough to ultimately hold all ingredients. Saute shrimp in butter until just pink on both sides. Remove shrimp to a plate or bowl.
Combine soup, milk, sherry, nutmeg, & hot sauce in the same skillet & gently heat through. Add shrimp & taste for any seasoning adjustments.
Serve over cooked white rice & top with chopped parsley & freshly-ground black pepper to taste if desired.
** Can also be combined half & half with fake "krab" – aka Surimi – with excellent & tasty results.
And yet another one that's gotten rave reviews. And it uses canned soup. Go figure?
Bacardi1 Broccoli Blue Cheese Casserole
1 can of Campbell's regular condensed "Cream of (fill in blank)" soup
(Cream of Asparagus, Chicken, Celery, Mushroom – whichever you prefer)
½ a soup can of half & half
Approx. 4 oz., or ½ of an 8 oz. block of cream cheese, roughly cut into cubes
Approx. ¾ lb. of your favorite blue cheese – any type
2-3 heads worth of broccoli florets (save stalks for another use, or discard)
1 sleeve crushed Ritz crackers (just gently roll them right in the sleeve before opening it)
Preheat oven to 350. Bring a large enough pot of water for the broccoli to a boil, add broccoli, bring back to a boil for just 2 minutes & drain.
Combine soup, half & half, cream cheese, & blue cheese in a microwave-safe bowl and microwave until cheeses are melted. In a casserole dish large enough to hold all ingredients (a 10" x 10" x 2" worked with 2 heads of broccoli florets for me), gently fold together blanched broccoli florets & sauce. Top with crushed Ritz crackers, and bake uncovered at 350 for approx. 30 minutes, or until casserole is heated through & cracker topping is lightly toasted.
And regardless of whether it's "Chowhound Correct", I'll never give up my infamous heavily-tweaked "Green Bean Casserole". Husband would probably divorce me.
1 pound package frozen whole green beans, thawed (or you can cook up 1 pound of trimmed fresh if you like)
6-8 fresh Shitake mushrooms
1-2 clusters Oyster mushrooms (or 1 cluster oyster mushrooms & 1 cluster Maitake mushrooms)
6-8 Cremini mushrooms
2-3 tablespoons butter
1 can regular condensed Cream of Mushroom Soup (NOT low or no fat!)
¾ cup of half-and-half or heavy cream
2/3 cup dry sherry
Salt & freshly ground black pepper to taste
1 can French's Original French Fried Onions
Preheat oven to 350.
Rinse & trim mushrooms (discard shitake stems or save for stock); slice. In a skillet large enough to hold all ingredients, melt butter & sauté mushrooms until they release their liquid & are "just" starting to brown a little. Stir in soup, half-&-half or cream, & sherry. Stir & simmer gently until mixture thickens a little, season to taste with salt & pepper, & gently fold in thawed green beans & approximately 1/3 can of fried onions. Transfer mixture to a baking dish (around 2-3 quart size) & bake for 20 minutes or until heated through, then top with remaining fried onions & continue baking for another 10 minutes or until onion topping is toasted a bit.
Two uses:
1) Emergency food supply: I keep a few cans in the cupboard in case of earthquakes, power outages, or unexpected occasions like the fridge giving up the ghost while we're out of town for a week.
2) Camping. Tromping around in the fresh air can make anything taste good (car camping, that is.) The soup doesn't require refrigeration, heats up quickly, and with some rolls and fruit makes a passable meal. I've found that throwing a handful of couscous in the soup while it's cooking gives it more body.
re: tardigrade
Great idea with the cous cous.
I enjoy a doctored up tomato soup - prepare with water and just add all the seasonings one would add to a Bloody Mary (celery salt, hot pepper sauce, pepper, etc.) but I do I have a Bean and Bacon soup use that hits the spot sometimes.
I use thin pork chops to make this a quick dish. Perhaps a half pound of them (6 or so). Salt and pepper them, then brown them in a Dutch oven or transfer them to a pot after browning them. Deglaze with a little white wine. Add one onion, coarsely chopped. Open can of Bean and Bacon soup. Dump it in. Add one soup can of liquid - I use half white wine, half water. Stir to mix soup with the liquid and coat everything. Cover the pot and cook until chops are fork tender. 1 1/2 hours or so depending on chop thickness. I serve with baked or mashed potatoes. I suspect this 'recipe' was at one point on a Campbell's label but I grew up eating it and have had similar at other's homes.
re: YvonneChristine
Campbell's bean and bacon soup was my favorite soup as a kid, I probably had it 2 or 3 times a week. Now I make a copycat version I found on the Internet that is just as good but with way less salt. Your recipe sounds fantastic and I can hardly wait to try it with some of my homemade b&b soup, thanks!
Regular Cambells Tomato soup made with evaporated milk and some garlic croutons is pretty good. I always grind quite a bit of fresh black pepper in it.
Very rare that I eat this, but every couple years it's tasty. Used to eat it when I was sick as a kid. My kid wouldn't touch canned soup with a ten foot pole.
I still make my mother's Mustard Pork Chops, using cream of mushroom soup. Just slather some yellow mustard on both sides of four pork chops, brown in a pan without any oil...when the mustard is browned lightly and the meat is browned, pour one can of mushroom soup over, and stir it around with the browned mustard that stuck to the pan. Cover and simmer for an hour or so, and serve with potato pierogis or wide egg noodles.
I don't add anything else to this recipe, just because it's one of my comfort foods as is, but you could jazz it up any way you want with a different mustard, or adding some herbs or wine. My grown sons have pretty sophisticated taste buds, but when they come home to visit, this is one dish they ask for.
re: jmcarthur8
Yum, that sounds good to me. I don't use canned soups much but periodically, cream of mushroom soup adds just the right note to a dish.
re: jmcarthur8
My mom also made pork chops and mushroom soup. I loved it, but haven't had it in years. I really miss Campbell's Scotch Broth.
In my estimation canned soup used to be much better than it is now. I ate a lot of it growing up and used it when raising my own family.
Some uses were:
Crock pot chicken with canned cream of mushroom soup;
Hamburger pie using browned ground beef, a can of cream of tomato soup, some seasonings, topped with a layer of canned green beans, mashed potatoes and grated cheddar cheese baked in a casserole dish.
I rarely use canned soup for recipes anymore, but do occasionally eat the Healthy Choice varieties. They have less sodium than the others and taste pretty good in a pinch.
re: noodlepoodle
My mother never made homemade soup when I was growing up with the exception of chili or a pot of great northern or navy beans....we ate a lot of Campbells. The soup was better back then for sure but now, they have a larger variety.
I used to make Beef Stroganoff with the cream of mushroom soup over noodles when my kids were young...I'm going to have to revisit that recipe soon.
I have to say I'm amazed that no truly negative responses have shown up yet. I expected 19 people to tell you they never eat canned soup, it's all processed/preservatives/MSG, etc. and they make homemade every day and it's quicker and easier and better and cheaper and better for the environment. Hurray!
I'm afraid I don't have anything "innovative" to add. We keep a couple cans around for nights when we don't want to cook. My husband gets an annual Campbells Tomato/Grilled Cheese craving and eats that for two weeks straight every winter. I have strained a can of chicken noodle and added the liquid to homemade if my broth turns out wimpy. And sick food - absolutely.
re: NonnieMuss
I'm glad no one has posted those type of remarks because then I would be forced to post how I didn't ask for opinions on the nutrition of canned soup, only what are their recipes for canned soup...
Most seem to be in the Tomato soup or Chicken Noodle soup camp...my daughter was here last week for a visit and she wanted Campbell's chicken noodle, not homemade, because it reminded her of her childhood
re: Cherylptw
I think I spoke too soon. They have invaded.
re: NonnieMuss
Yeh; it was too much to hope for...lol!
re: Cherylptw
Posted a recipe here:
re: hannaone
love, love, love sausage gravy , & biscuits!
Once a year I make my mother's American Chop Suey:
Saute onion, brown beef, one or two cans of Campbell's Tomato Soup (depending on amount of beef) and S&P. And must eat with buttered Wonder bread (which I know is not available at this time).
re: blue room
Love the idea of lemon juice on the chilled consommé will try next summer!
I use my cream of mushroom as a base for my baked chicken portobella...good as a base for mush soup too.
There is nothing better than a gooey cheesy grilled cheese sandwich and a bowl of Campbell's tomato soup.
I gussy up chicken soup with garlic and a sleeve of saltines..damn, its good!
Campbell's has some new pricey soup in a pouch that is quite good..over brown rice..the Thai is good.
re: Beach Chick
Do you have a recipe for your baked chicken portobella?
I keep cream of mushroom for the tuna or green bean casseroles. Cheddar cheese soup is the base for my quiches.
For me it's for the annual green bean casserole.
I don't keep it stocked because I would just forget about it and I don't have a true pantry. Just three cabinets dedicated to all canned or dried goods and spices. Really limits me.
I would make it for my SO when he's sick but he's turned his nose up to it. So he only likes homemade or tetra packed premium soups. When I'm sick it's pho or ramen I want.
I remember growing up, there was one girl who would sip warmed soup her mom made her from a thermal mug for breakfast while waiting for the bus. Not a bad idea really on winter mornings.
If it's Campbell's tomato, I eat it. Nothing I make tastes like it. You can argue better taste with oven-roasted tomatoes or not, there's something comforting about the classic canned taste. Their chicken noodle soup? Dishwater with mushy noodle bits. I think it tasted better years ago but maybe that's just wishful thinking.
I'm with all of the Campbell's tomato soup fans. I keep a can on hand, which I usually make with milk (and even a drop of sherry if it's on hand) when I have a cold. I do buy the "healthy request" version now, which I find a bit tastier.
And there is one of my mother's old recipes that I still do once in a while that uses cream of mushroom/or celery soup - pork chops topped with a mound of bread stuffing with the cream of whatever mixed with white wine and sour cream poured on top, then baked. Yeah, I know... (it's good).
Other than that, I don't usually buy canned soups. I do buy the occasional $.25 ramen noodle package for when I want chicken noodle soup.
I eat Tomato or Chicken Noodle when I am sickish. I make Green Bean Casserole with Cream of Mushroom. I schmear undiluted soup all over raw chicken and bake it; juice comes out of the chicken and combines with the Chicken or Mushroom or Celery soup to make a sauce. I have given up on Progresso--I buy it then throw it out---only Campbell's is the taste of childhood. But for serious soup eating I make my own.
In the summer I keep a can of Campbell's tomato and a can of their beef consommé in the fridge and on a very hot night make something my mother used to make: both cans in the blender with one can of crushed ice and blend the heck out of it. Top with lots of snipped chives. Heaven. Because of sodium issues can only make it once a summer, sadly.
During the winter I keep a stock of canned soups and other goods as a "Snow Survival Pack" in the event we get snowed in. (Hasn't happened in years). In the spring I start using it up a little at a time to clear out the cupboard.
The Campbells Tomato is great for dipping luncheon meat sandwiches in.
re: Jerseygirl111
Alternate: Use cheese soup instead of Tomato. Instant Kraft Mac&Cheese imitation.
Cheater's Chican Divan: Layers of chunked rotisserie chicken breast, par-cooked frozen broccoli florets, 1/2 can Cream of Chicken soup mixed with 3/4 cup mayo and a squirt of lemon juice, shredded cheddar, baked until bubbly and topped with buttered bread crumbs during the last 15 minutes of baking.
Pretty rich, but it is a once-a-winter nostalgia treat with fond memories for me.
re: Pwmfan
I confess: I'm a carboholic (I know, I'm working on rehab!) but dang, this sounds good!
re: Pwmfan
That sounds like a wonderful recipe to have on hand. Many thanks for sharing!! :)
Not much anymore.
There are some good boxed soups and broths that are useful to have in the pantry. Allesso makes some dried Italian classics that are a good starting point for hearty soups when you need something fast and can't soak beans.
Other than that, we're big soup for dinner people and so I make them.
Honestly have no idea when I last bought any. Probably university 20 years ago when I bought lots of it. Come to think of it, that was the last time I had coffee, too!
I think Campbell's has changed some of their recipes. I used to doctor up the bean w/ bacon w/more beans and some cut up hot dogs. Last time I had it it was disgusting. My favorite tomato soup of the canned soups is Campbell's tomato bisque. I make it w/egg like in egg drop soup, For a main dish, I mix canned french onion soup w/dark beer a few cloves of garlic and a splash of vinegar as a the liquid for pot roast in a crock pot.
re: free sample addict aka Tracy L
Your post reminded me of our family's Hot Dogs, Beans and Bacon. Try this with the beans:
Cut up 1/2lb bacon into 2" chunks. Brown in large skillet. Remove bacon when brown and crispy. Drain most of the grease. Add 1 pkg hot dogs, that have each been cut up into 4 pieces. Brown the chunks in bacon grease, then remove. Chop up 1 med onion, add to pan, cook to soften. When soft, add back bacon and hot dogs, 2 cans of Campbells beans, dried parsley, onion powder, mustard and ketchup. Can also mix in some brown sugar if desired. Let cook for about 30 min until thickened and gooey.
You will appreciate those beans again.
I imagine there's some more good uses for cream of mushroom or is it that it's just too easy to make it from scratch with ingredients usually in the house?
re: tcamp
I don't use any canned soup but that's not to say it's 'poison'. Lots of people for lots of reasons pretty much depend on using canned soups/veg/meats/fruits/ At least they are attempting to feed their kids something.
I went to a big 'swap meet' and the entire contents of a grocery store that had closed had been donated to the local food bank. The volunteers were selling cans of soup for a quarter. People were stocking up. Most looked like they could use the bargain/s.
re: Puffin3
We used to get Progresso soups, especially the lentil. But it just doesn't taste good to me any more.
At $.25, that is a nutritious bargain.
re: WNYamateur
Not if you and/or your family are like hundreds of millions of people on the planet who wake up hungry and go to bed hungry.
A long time ago when I was commercial fishing one of the staples on board were the large cans of 'Progressive' french pea soup.
Now each time I see it in the grocery store it's like it's calling out to me "Remember me? Remember how good I was for you? When you were cold and tired and needed unconditional comfort who did you turn to? Please don't just walk away and pretend there was never anything between us. You're breaking my heart again!".
I swear the next time I go shopping I'm buying a can.

National / International News
Weekly Wrap: Volatility, always
John Carney with the Wall Street Journal and Linette Lopez from Business Insider join Kai to discuss the week in review.
How to stop your people from freaking out about Ebola
The President has tapped White House veteran Ron Klain to be the nation's Ebola Czar.
The appointment comes as fears of the virus spread with a poll this week showing nearly half Americans are either "very concerned" or "somewhat concerned" they will contract Ebola.
So how do companies deal with this? How do they keep workers safe and operations running smoothly? The first thing some businesses did this week was call Arun Sharma.
"A lot of the questions we are getting is how do we control the fear and anxiety in the workplace," he says.
Sharma works for Control Risks, an international firm that helps Fortune 500 companies around the globe manage risk. Especially for those clients with operations in Ebola hot spots, Sharma says the essential word is "communicate."
"If you have an operation that's based in Africa and you want to give employees an opportunity to ask question, have a town hall meeting, bring a medical advisor in that can answer those medical related questions," she says.
Certainly multinational corporations must start learning about Ebola and its risks, but at a time when flight attendants reportedly locked a passenger in a plane lavatory after she threw up; it's clear employers here in the U.S. have their work cut out for them too. That could mean executives dusting off a report already many have on their shelves.
Years ago, the CDC designed pandemic preparation guidelines. Dr. Robert Quigley, with the medical assistance company International SOS, says there'd be a lot less fear if companies routinely practiced using this tool they already have.
"And companies are definitely not doing that. And as a result they are all kind of caught now in a panic mode, and there's some scrambling going on," he says.
One way to cut down on the corporate chaos, Quigley says, is for companies to focus on their business and develop what he calls a continuity plan.
"They need to have trigger points that indicate when they need to pull people out of harm's way, whether or not travel really needs to take place, and whether that's going to negatively impact their bottom line," he says.
Sorting that bit out should help sober up the room says Quigley. The doctor says remember the more afraid you and your staff are, the more likely operations will be interrupted.
The antidote: education and preparation.
Free Starbucks for life?
In caffeine-related news, Starbucks announced today it's going to be running a sweepstakes this coming holiday season. If you use a Starbucks card between December 2 and Christmas you're entered for a chance to win Starbucks for life.
Which, if you read the fine print, the company defines as 30 years.
Not exactly what they're advertising, but still... not bad.
Google's PAC spends in search of political influence
The latest figures from the Center for Responsive Politics in Washington show that Google's Political Action Committee has just barely overtaken the PAC at Goldman Sachs in campaign spending this election cycle.
Goldman Sachs' PAC, which has helped the company to wield its impressive lobbying power in Washington, had spent $1.39 million on the 2014 election cycle, as of the end of August. Google's PAC, named NetPAC, had spent $1.43 million. Company PACs bundle contributions from employees, but don't include money from the corporation itself.
Google's political money-play has increased massively in recent election cycles. In 2006, Google's PAC spent $37,000. By this year, the spending had increased forty-fold.
As an industry, Wall Street still packs a much bigger political warchest than Silicon Valley to support candidates and parties. Investment-industry-related contributors and PACS have spent more than $125 million this year; the computer and internet industry has spent just under $24 million.
Bill Allison, at the campaign finance watchdog group The Sunlight Foundation, says the banking industry may need to spend more to have an impact inside the Beltway on legislation and regulation, because big banks are now disliked and distrusted by many voters. For the most part, he says, that's not true of big tech companies.
"For Google and Facebook, they have this hip young image," says Allison.
The big internet players also have a lot of people's ears and eyeballs, says Mark Jaycox, legislative analyst at the Electronic Frontier Foundation. They use that to leverage their lobbying on Capitol Hill—especially about issues that resonate with the public, like online privacy. "Google and Twitter have massive followings," said Jaycox, "and they use these outlets and social media to push for email privacy laws and NSA surveillance reform."
Some of the tech industry's key legislative priorities, though, aren't so widely popular, or even well-known to the general public. Those issues include raising the number of visas available for skilled foreign technology workers, said Princeton political historian Julian Zelizer.
"They're fighting for everything from immigration reform to tax credits, and soon I'm sure, monopoly issues," said Zelizer. "So they're going to give a lot of money all over, to both parties."
Still, Silicon Valley's general reputation for leaning left comes through in some of the Center for Responsive Politics' data. The industry's cumulative political contributions this year have split 60-40 — for Democrats.

Citrus greening is hurting orange growers in Florida
Citrus greening was first reported in Asia during the late 1800s, and it has no cure. It isn't a threat to humans or animals, but it has ruined many acres of citrus crops throughout the world, including the United States.
"It's been problematic and it's pretty much spread throughout the entire industry now," says Mark Wheeler, a third-generation orange grower and CFO of Wheeler Farms in Lake Placid, Florida.
Wheeler says that although they're seeing elevated fruit prices, the production has been diminished per acre because of the disease.
"It's all a grower by grower situation and how impacted they are by the disease," says Wheeler. "A grower who is producing 300 to 400 boxes per acre is doing well, but a grower who is producing 200 boxes per acre is struggling to stay in business."

In Context: The big business of high school sports
Illinois based-Paragon Marketing Group is working on a deal to bring high school football to a national audience. The group – which brought LeBron James's high school basketball games to TV – is currently in negotiations with several states and ESPN to bring some type of high school football playoff to television. ESPN wouldn't comment on the negotiations, with Paragon saying the talks are ongoing and private.
Yet, at least one contract between Paragon and one of the states it's working with has been made public: Florida officials have agreed to let two state high schools participate in such a playoff each year.
Paragon Marketing Group will pay the Florida High School Athletic Association $10,000 each year for allowing the state's schools to participate in a national playoff or bowl series. If two or more teams from Florida are picked to participate by Paragon, the Florida High School Athletic Association would receive $40,000.
Meanwhile, Florida high schools participating in a playoff will receive $12,500 for appearing in the game, and another $25,000 in merchandising fees. Paragon Marketing, the group organizing the event has until October 31st to cancel a playoff or high school bowl series this year, according to the contract the team signed with Florida.
"For the next frontier to be high school football is not a surprise," says Sports Business Analyst Keith Reed. "You've already seen some media properties develop to cover high school football…people pay attention to this."
Meanwhile, officials in Georgia and Texas have declined to participate – for now. Officials in California have suggested the playoff is a non-starter, citing rules that prohibit high school teams to participate in games after their final state playoff games.
The concern among many officials is that high school players may be exploited at a crucial time in their development.
"They're at a very integral part of their lives, they're starting to develop who they really are…who their personalities are, what their identity will be for the rest of their lives," says St. Francis High School Head Football Coach Rich Carroll of Queens, New York.
Still, Carroll says more money for high school football teams through televised games would be beneficial to programs like his.
"Even though there's a lot of negative press, the fact that it's so enjoyable to watch…I think it's promoting activity," Carroll says. "The bottom line is football's fun."

Boxing might be a sport that has lost some popularity in recent years. But in staging a scheduled seven-bout card Friday at U.S. Cellular Field, promoters and fighters alike hope the historical significance will prove Chicago still is a great fight city.
According to promoters, the card marks the first professional fights at a Chicago baseball stadium since Sept. 25, 1962, when Sonny Liston knocked out Floyd Patterson at Comiskey Park.
The outdoor card features co-main events. In the first headliner, a 10-rounder, heavyweight Mike Mollo (20-4-1, 12 knockouts), a native Chicagoan, will fight against Artur Szpilka (15-0, 11 KOs) in a rematch of their bout Feb. 1 at the Pavilion, when Szpilka earned a sixth-round knockout.
The second main event pits up-and-coming light heavyweight Andrzej Fonfara (23-2, 13 KOs) against Gabriel Campillo (22-5-1, 9 KOs) in a 12-rounder.
The event will be televised on "ESPN Friday Night Fights."
"It's definitely going to let you know that Chicago has got a good fight scene," Mollo said. "We're still here, we're here. Chicago is here and alive and well in the sport of boxing. It's a great job the promoters have done."
Liston-Patterson isn't the only famous outdoor bout fought here.
On Sept. 22, 1927, Jack Dempsey fought Gene Tunney at Soldier Field in front of reportedly more than 100,000 people. It stands as one of the most controversial fights in history.
A rematch of the duo's bout 364 days prior when Tunney took the heavyweight title from Dempsey, the fight is known in boxing circles for the "Long Count."
Dempsey knocked down Tunney in the seventh round and according to accounts of the fight was given some 12 to 15 seconds to get up instead of 10. Tunney ended up winning the bout.
Fonfara believes staging another outdoor event here could give fans a new perspective.
"It's [fighting outside] not like something new for me, but it's a very good idea," Fonfara said. "People can see something here, something different than boxing inside."

Why Property Conveyancing Is Considered So Very Important
There is hardly any doubt the property conveyancing brisbane is extremely important. This is because only when conveyancing is completed correctly and within a reasonable period of time would the ownership of the property be transferred from the seller to the buyer. Many customers often believe that buying a property is all about identifying the right customers, tying up with the right bank or financial institution for mortgage loans, paying the price and walking away with the property. While these are just the administrative areas of property buying and selling, there are some legal requirements that need to be gone through. It is here that the role of a good property conveyancing brisbane professional becomes extremely important. Hence as customers it is very important for customers to have a reasonably good idea about property conveyancing so that they can understand its importance and significance.
The process of property ownership transfer is no simple to say the least. There are many documents that have to be submitted, many agreements that have to be executed between the seller and the buyer and many compliance related and regulatory aspects that have to be taken care of. Each and every process must be completed thoroughly without which it would be difficult to move to the next process. There are also many checks and balances that need to be put in place to ensure that there are no fishy deals that come to light after a point in time. For example, it would be pertinent to mention here that personal verification of the property might bring to light easements and other such surprises which otherwise might get buried under the legal and property documents.
There is also the commercial aspect of the entire transaction. Here too the conveyancer has a role to play though not directly. He has to find out more about the fair market value of the property so that the buyer can be sure that he paying the right price for the property in question. Then there is the need for the support of administrative staff for running around and doing liaison work for smooth and efficient completion of the entire conveyancing process.
Hence at the end of the days there has to be a close interaction between different professionals at various points in time. Unless this happens it would be very difficult to complete the ownership transfer smoothly and efficiently. The knowledge levels that these professionals should posses are also very important.
The Various Roles Performed By Property Settlement Professionals
What exactly are the roles of property settlement professionals and why is it considered so very important. Let us try and find out the answers for the same over the next few lines. Whenever a property is bought or sold there is no doubt that there are quite a few important steps that have to be gone through. These are not only obligatory but they also have a legal aspect attached to it. This is not the case with other movable and immovable properties and that is the reason why real estate buying and selling is considered so very complicated. Since all the processes of property ownerships have a particular time period, there is the need to complete the same within such timelines. Failure to comply with the timelines could result in penalties and at times the entire property ownership transfer process could also be put in a big problem.
The process of property settlement is quite lengthy and involves the role of many professionals. It all starts with the in principle agreement between the buyers and sellers to complete the entire transaction. Once this decision is reached either the buyer or seller or even both of them usually approach the property settlement agent or company. They sit with the customers and find out their exact requirements. Once an agreement is reached regarding the commercials and timeframe, the conveyancer sends out a formal offer letter outlining the various deliverables, the time lines expected, the documents required from the customers and last but not the least the commercials. The customer has to send across a formal acceptance and then the process of conveyancing gets ticking
It all starts with the lawyers getting a copy of all the legal documents. The documents are scrutinized thoroughly. In most cases the lawyers also manually inspect the property to ensure that there is no ambiguity as far as the legal status of the property is concerned. special care is taken to ensure that the property is free from easements and other impediments.

Once you get into a buying or selling agreement you are legally bound by the contract and you have to honor your commitment under the normal circumstances. Getting out of it will take lot of time and you could be spending lot of time, money and effort towards this objective. Hence to avoid all these problems and to ensure total peace of mind it is always better to hire professional conveyancer adelaide to help you out.
There are a number of functions that are performed by real estate conveyancers. The legal aspects are perhaps the most complicated and difficult. The role of these real estate lawyers is to have a look at the property documents and ensure that it is perfectly in order and the legal ownership is settled beyond doubt. They also take care to ensure that the property is free from any planning conditions that could impinge upon the total rights over the property. For example easement is a classic example where a property might suffer from some drawbacks.
The changes that have been made to properties should also have the sanction and permission from the local authorities. Here too the role of these lawyers is very important because they will have to check on the same. The property settlement companies apart from valuing the property and coming out the fair market value should also ensure that all the amenities and facilities are available and are in good working condition.
Things That You Should Ask A Property Settlement Agent
While the role of property settlement agent is very important to ensure smooth transfer of property ownership transfer from seller to buyer, as a customer you should know what exactly to ask these service providers. However, before having a list of questions to ask you should know what exactly are the roles and responsibilities of these professionals. Put in plain and simple words, the main role of these property settlement agents and companies is to help complete the entire process of property ownership transfer in a smooth manner and within a reasonable period of time. Though the whole definition of property settlement might not have occupied a few lines, when it comes to actually walking the talk on the ground it is quite complicated to say the least.
There are a number of professionals whose role might be needed to complete the entire settlement process. They could include the role of property lawyers and attorneys, real estate valuers and appraisers and last but not the least the unsung roles played by documentation specialists and support staffs. Now coming to some specific questions that need to be asked here are a few of them that are relevant and important.
First and foremost, you must ask the property settlement company about their overall experience in this field. It is expected that a reputed and reasonably successful settlement agent must have spent at least 10 years if not more in the business. With experience comes expertise and it is not the other way round.
The next question to ask is whether they are certified and qualified, in that order. It is very important to deal only with settlement companies and agents who have a formal certification from the relevant authorities. further, you should ask them whether they will be able to offer the entire gamut of settlement under one roof. This is critical because many settlement companies are mere brokers who pick up jobs and pass it on to some third party service providers. This should be avoided at all costs because it will lead to loss of time and could also jeopardize the quality of work.
While you should also talk about cost, it may not be always prudent to drive a hard bargain on cost alone. Quality and promptness is of paramount importance and hence customers should insist on the above two points for looking for these service providers. Lastly, good settlement agents should offer their services for even complicated matters.
What Exactly Is Conveyancing
Though most of us would have come across the term property conveyancing, it is quite likely that we may not aware as to what exactly it means. So in this article we will try to find out what exactly it is all about and why it is considered so very important. Whenever a property is bought or sold, there are a number of important steps that have to be gone through. These steps have some legal, compliance related and statutory angles attached to it and hence each of the procedures and processes must be gone through perfectly.
There cannot be any room for mistakes and errors because such eventualities might jeopardize the entire transaction. Further, there are a number of technicalities involved in these processes and therefore one has no other option but to take professional help. It would also be pertinent to point out here that there are quite a few professionals who are a part of this entire process. Hence, it is important to take professional help without which it would be practically impossible to complete smooth and timely transfer of ownerships of properties.
Let us now look at some of the important professionals whose role is very important as far as property conveyancing is concerned. Let us get started with the role of property lawyers and advocates. Theirs is perhaps the most important and crucial task. They ensure that the legality of the entire transaction is beyond doubt. For example, they check whether the owner as mentioned in the property documents and what is shown in the government records are one and the same. Further there also could be some unknown surprises which could be hidden by the seller from the buyer. These could include easements that could jeopardize the correct ownership of the property in question. There could also be some other covenants and encumbrances that can be found out only by a close scrutiny and examination of the documents and also a personal visit of the property concerned.
Additionally, the role of property valuers and appraisers cannot also be ignored. As far as property buyers are concerned, there is no doubt that their role is very significant from more than one point of view. Apart from helping them to get a crystal clear idea about the fair market value of the property a professional and well researched valuation report also has many other subjective pieces of information that are extremely useful for the buyer to take a logical decision.
Understanding The Basics Of Conveyancing
Buying and selling or real estate properties are not the same as buying other movable and immovable properties. While there is no doubt that there are procedures and rules to be followed when buying other assets, they are not as complicated and as difficult when compared to real estate buying and selling. The entire process is so complicated and complex that it will surely be out of bounds or understanding for first time buyers or sellers or even for other retail customers. Therefore there is nothing to be surprised about how to choose conveyancers in Melbourne and when the entire process of conveyancing is outsourced to professionals having experience and expertise in this field Conveyancing can be defined as those processes and steps that have to be followed meticulously to ensure that there is smooth transfer of ownership from one entity to another.
This is easier said than done but when it has to be actually gone through there are a number of issues that need to be sorted out. There are quite a few government and other agencies that have to be involved in the process. Interacting with them getting thing moving is quite certainly a challenging task. The rules and regulations that have to be followed along the way are also quite complicated and ordinary customers would not be in a position to understand the same.
There are a number of professionals whose roles are considered to be very important and vital. They include real estate lawyers and attorneys, real estate valuers and appraisers and last but not the least the role of support service staffs and documentation specialists also is quite significant. There should be perfect coordination between the various professionals and there should also be seamless flow of information from one professional to another. Until this happens it would be delay the entire process and there could major slipups and errors which are not desirable. Further, timely completion of the entire process is very important. Towards this objective the onus lies on conveyancers to come up with a procedures and workflows that promise smooth transition from one process to another. Conveyancing is a typical example where well thought out automated back office procedures can certainly work out well. However, it has to be carefully considered taking a number of factors into account.
Getting To Understand More About Conveyancing
When we buy or sell a real estate property we have go through a number of processes and steps. They are very complicated to say the least. Quite certainly they are beyond the comprehension and understanding of ordinary customers. Unless we know what exactly are the functions of a real estate professional conveyancers of Sydney we will not be able to gauge their importance and significance. Conveyancing is not one single step or process. It is a combination of various steps starting from the moment a customer decides to buy or sell a property. Each of the steps is handled by separate group of professionals and the steps are independent of one another. For example the role of real estate lawyers and attorneys is completely different from that of real estate valuers.
It would now be not a bad idea to try and work out the entire process flow pertaining to conveyancing. Whenever a customer approaches for help on conveyancing the service providers usually offer a check list which the customer is suppose to fill and send back. The questionnaire is quite easy to understand and fill up. It talks about the various documents and papers that might be required for smooth ownership transfer. It also talks about the kind of services that the customer wants from the service provider. It has to be understood that there are end to end conveyancing services or piece-meal services that are also offered. So the choice is left to the customer as to which option he would like to avail.
It is also very important to always look for a service provider who can handle the entire job end to end. It would not be advisable to go in for piece meal solutions unless it is absolutely essential. The various processes involved with conveyancing are very closely knit. It is therefore important to see that there is no loss of time or effort as one moves from one process of conveyancing to the other. There is also the need to ensure that any good conveyancer is supported by a group of support staff. This is again very pertinent and critical because a conveyancer's job includes regular interaction and follow-up with the various authorities. There are also many documents that need to be examined, vetted. Draft agreements are also to be prepared which calls for spending lot of time and effort.

It is beyond the comprehension and understanding of ordinary customers. This is the main reason why almost each and every conveyancing transaction is handled by professionals. Though some customers might have tried out doing it on their own, it is likely that they would have faced quite a few difficulties. This is because the whole process involves going through many legal issues which ordinary customers would not be able to understand.
There are a number of professionals who are involved in the entire process of conveyancing. They could range from lawyers and attorneys to real estate valuers and conveyancing support staff. Each of these professionals has a very important and significant role to play and their roles are interdependent on one another. For example, the role of a real estate lawyer will not be complete without the active support and cooperation of a real estate valuer and vice versa. Hence, there is always a need to look for the right group or professionals when looking for an end to end conveyancing solution. Many of the conveyancing requirements have some strict time lines and hence timely submission of reports and returns is also very important to say the least.
What Exactly Is Conveyancing And Why Is It Important

Things To Understand About Conveyancing
The main objective of appointing various professionals under the entire gamut of process of conveyancing is to ensure that the interests of both the buyers and sellers are protected. As most of us would be aware there are many legal, statutory and compliance implications whenever a property is bought or sold. It is quite different from purchase of other movable and immovable properties. Hence, taking the help of the various professionals is extremely important. Let us try and find out some of the important tasks that could form a part of conveyancing.
Once there is a formal acceptance of the offer by the buyer, the first task that needs to be completed is to draw up a formal sale or purchase agreement. This is a legally enforceable document and hence has the drawn up carefully. Only qualified lawyers and attorneys would be able to do a good job of it. Since, as buyers and sellers the knowledge of drafting such agreements would be very poor, they have to fall back on these professionals to do a good job that protects the interests of both the buyer and seller. Hence, it is very common for both the buyers and sellers to appoint their attorneys. Their job does not end only in drawing up agreements. It also includes looking up various documents, going in for search reports, and even physically visiting to property site to check out the presence of easements and other covenants.
Apart from lawyers and attorneys, there are real estate valuers who also have a very important role to play. Their job is to ensure that both the buyers and the sellers have correct knowledge about the market value of the property that is either being bought or sol. This is important information based on which lot of financial and other decisions is taken. It is also pertinent to mention here that apart from the value of the property, this report also plays a role in determining the property tax payable and also for fixing the stamp duty applicable.
Understanding The Importance Of Conveyancing
There is hardly any doubt that there cannot be any buying or selling of transactions without the active help and support of conveyance professionals. Conveyancing is a very broad term and includes in its gamut a lot of activities. It could range anything from arranging the various documentation that are required for execution of sale deeds to investigating in the property in question and ensuring that everything is in fine fettle. Whenever there is a need to subdivide a land or make changes in the government records pertaining to registered owner of a property, the role of conveyance professionals becomes very important.
Now coming to the responsibility and indispensability of conveyance professionals, there are quite a few reasons for this. Whenever there is a need to prepare a memorandum of transfer or prepare the legal documents (sale deed or purchase deed) the same cannot be done unless there is an active support from the conveyance service provider. Further if there is an easement that either needs to be modified, removed or changed the role of conveyancing professionals becomes very important.
In many cases conveyancing is all about representing the case of the buyers with the sellers and ensuring that the interests of the buyers are protected at all points in time. In this regard it would be pertinent to point out here that valuation forms an important part of any real estate property transfer transaction. On quite a few occasions the conveyance themselves double up as valuers and ensure that a fair representation of the property is made. Hence taking the above points into account there is no denying the fact that the role of conveyancing professionals is extremely important. Hence, the onus is on us to try and find out the best professionals after carefully considering their overall experience and expertise in this area. Identifying the right conveyance is at the crux of ensuring smooth transfer of ownership from one person to another

Banda Arc
The Banda Arc is a double island arc formed by the collision of the Indo-Australian plate with the Eurasian plate. Principal islands include Timor, Flores, and Seram.
The Inner Banda Arc consists of a string of recent and active volcanic islands from Komodo to Kekeh-besar of the Barat Daya Islands, including Flores, Solor, Alor, Wetar, and Damar.
The Outer Banda Arc is older and non-volcanic. It overlies the margin of the Pre-Cambrian craton that makes up much of the continent of Australia. It stretches from Savu through Rote, Timor, Leti, Babar, Tanimbar, and the Kai Islands, before turning west to Seram, Ambon, and Buru. The outer arc is geologically associated with the Australian continent, though it is a more recent accretion than the neighbouring Aru Islands.
