I too let the box sit for 6 months before making the soup. My husband and I just finished eating the prepared soup and I am now looking on line to buy more! Definitely yummy alone but also great with broccoli and cauliflower added.

My Dad is currently undergoing chemo. He has lost his taste for most food; however, he loves this soup, as well as the Tavernhouse Cheddar Soup (actually, my entire family loves them!). I make one of the two soups every single evening!

Shocking! I never expected a packaged soup to be so good. I let it sit around for a year after I got back from Minnesota, and just now tried it. I want MORE!!!!
