Heinz makes change to iconic 1910 soup range for Tesco shoppers
Heinz has launched four soups in microwaveable pouches, giving UK shoppers a new option alongside its long-running canned range. The change is intended to make soup easier to heat at home or on the go, while retaining the flavours and convenience the company says customers want.
The 350g pouches cost £2.25 and are available at Tesco and Ocado. Flavours are Butternut Squash & Spices, Chicken Broth & Garden Veg, Black Lentil Dhal, and Roasted Red Pepper & Tomato. Heinz has not said it will phase out its metal cans; the new pouch range was also introduced in Canada last month.
In short
- Heinz has launched four soups in microwaveable pouches.
