After learning that soup is sterilized in the canning process and doesnβt actually need to be reheated, I pretty much always just eat it straight from the can. It saves dishes and microwave time, and makes it extremely easy to just grab and go if I need something for the road.
But, somewhat understandably, I havenβt met anyone else who does this.

Only if im living in a post apocalyptic hellscape and scavenging to survive.
So no. Not yet. Anyway.
But soon.
No, I heat it up. It tastes better and has a better texture when heated.
Cold soup from a can sounds post-apocalyptic. I heat it and have it in a bowl, possibly with croutons or a slice of buttered bread.
No, cause Iβm not a fuckin degen
Not using Nazi terminology is free
Cooking is one of my favorite things on the planet, so absolutely not. I regularly spend all day cooking in anticipation of sitting down to a delicious bowl of soup for dinner. Takes all kinds though, so do you and enjoy your cold soup in a can!
I just put the can right in the micowave
Best choice lol
Chef Boyardee spaghetti and meatballs is better straight out of the can, and I will die on this hill
The only person I know who does this is a former Navy man.
Great for camping or if youβre just feeling lazy. Just rip it and sip it. π
Due to my habit of eating soup straight from the can, my partners refer to it as βbachelorette chow.β I remain unrepentant.
I used to eat baked beans cold from the can when I was a student.
Hahaβ¦ yesβ¦
I donβt eat soup. Full stop.
This person "man"s.
βI stare at the soup until congeals into a solid clump. Then I eat that.β
Dunno, I like warm/hot soup
Iβm all for not wasting the resources involved in dishes but cold canned soup is kind of nasty. Iβd at least warm it up if thatβs an option.
I have a mug thatβs twice the volume of a condensed soup can. Iβll put an arbitrary amount of water in the electric kettle, dump the contents of one can into the mug and then fill the rest with the boiling water. Result is soup at the perfect temperature for consumption. Makes me feel better than having instant ramen when Iβm lazy imo.
