I gave some of this soup to a fried to try and he simply drank it right straight, out of the box, and liked it.  I wanted it to taste like the campbells tomato soup so I had to ad a teaspoon of Truvia and a little skim milk.  Add just a sprinkle of salt and you have the same taste as the old days.  Fixed the way I like it... what a terrific soup and with a few saltines I feel like a teen again.  Not a bad accomplishment for a soup.
