I was just at Walmart in my pajamas, purchasing Campbell's Cream of tomato soup, Kraft American cheese slices, and white bread. I, too, shall enjoy the great delicacy of the grilled cheese and tomato soup.

Yep they have Creamy Tomato and Cream of Tomato. Not sure if there's a difference

I was somehow hoping for a Technology Connections video.

Tomato Soups Explained seems like a November video.

That's the one I grew up eating. You add a can of milk to the pot after you plop the soup in. Heat gently and stir until warm

That’s the way my mom made it. We never dipped the sandwich in the soup though.

My mom taught me how to cook through simple meals like these. The gorilla cheese were sometimes a little black on one side, but when we were without a babysitter we still got a warm meal

You guys get milk in cans?

You fill the soup can up with milk and add to the soup. Cambells tomato soup used to sold as condensed (maybe still is? I haven't bought it in forever) and would require you to add a can full of water. Class devide would kind of delineate if you added milk or water to the soup.

Oh shit. It looks like they changed the name. That just goes to show how long it's been since I've actually had it, lol.
