So disappointing
What a shame. As we sat here eating the soup, we both looked at each other and made a comment that this doesn't taste like it supposed to. Wondered if It had gone bad. Low and behold, after searching online, I find out that they DID change the recipe. You can't do that to a long-cherished staple. Imagine if Heinz changed the recipe for their ketchup or Coca-Cola for their COKE (oh yeah, they did try that once) Will send this post to Habitant and maybe if enough of us does so, they might go back to what it is supposed to be.
Horrible disappointment - why change a good thing!
Ever since I was a little girl (more than 50 years ago!) I've loved Habitant French Canadian Pea Soup. Bought a can last night to satisfy my craving and what a watery disappointment is was! The beautiful velvety, hearty texture has changed. Wow, it's like daydreaming about that high school crush from long ago and seeing him at the reunion minus his lush hair and muscular physique.
Not the same
As other reviewers have noted, this product has changed from a thick and hearty to a watery soup. I also noted that it was made in the USA. I will be looking for a Canadian made product now.
Horrible watery Broth
I use to love Habitant Pea Soup with a slice of homemade bread. It was nice and thick great for dipping in the bread. I saw it this week so I bought a can. When I opened it, I saw this pale yellow liquid which I was able to pour out of the can it was so watery. Hardly any peas at all. What happened to the Habitant Pea Soup??? It tastes blah with a chalky texture. NOT GOOD!
WORST SOUP EVER TASTED, WILL NOT BUY AGAIN
TASTE AWFUL WATTERY, AT FIRST THOUGHT IT WAS A BAD BATCH, BUR AFTER THE THIRD CAN WAS NOT, WILL NEVER BUY THAT SOUP AGAIN UNLESS THEY GO BACK TO THE ORIGINAL, BETWEEN MY FAMILY AND MY SONS FAMILY WE THROUGH ABOUT 10 CAN A WEEK, NO MORE
tried another this weekend just to see if anything happened, same juice and a few peas, one thing notice at the store the pile was high at $1.69 only a frw cans missing, I remember before when they can special, this pile use to go down in a couple of days. dont have to fight to buy them anymore nobody does
BOYCOTT this product
This is a total rip off to the consumer by charging the same $$ amount as the pre 2019 recipe and reducing the amount of peas by 35% and adding more sodium and water to fill the void !!! This new product IS BAD !!
I thought it went bad
I really thought the soup went bad but it didnt stink, in fact it smelled nothing at all. Reading all those comments confirmed that they actually changed the recipe for water and 3 peas in total. Really disappointed guess I will have to find another brand
Why change this wonderful product so it is now crap!
Why did you change the recipe of this wonderful product? It used to taste special but now tastes blah and it used to be thick and now it is watery!!! I do NOT recommend this product in its present state! Please change it back to what it was!!!
WARNING: Recipe change has ruined this product
The recipe of this product has changed and the watery slop that it now is should be shown on the can. If this packaging does not change it warrants a lawsuit as false advertising for a product that is nothing like what it was prior 2020. This company must have been acquired because for over 60 years my family has been eating this pea soup. When I saw the soup today I thought it went off. This company has just lost an entire family (30+) of customers who have regularily eaten the soup since the 1960s.
Shameful
Completely unrecognizable from the prior recipe.
Very watery, very few peas... a shake of the can and it's evident.
French Canadians everywhere are rolling in their graves.
You've lost a long time customer.
