THE CAMPBELLS SOUP CANS WERE SUBVERSIVE

I think the CAMPBELLS soup cans were subversive because Andy grew up in the town where the HEINZ was made; soup, ketchup... By giving CAMPBELLS free advertising through pop art, Andy Warhol was promoting Campbells, or declaring war on Heinz... and all those factory jobs in Pittsburgh where you could smell the soup cooking in the air.

What's your favorite flavor Campbells? Mine is a tie between Bean with Bacon and Scotch Broth (rare to find on the shelves these days.)
