I think that the contents have probably changed to keep up with costs and health requirements. Also processing may have changed.
I only buy those limited life soups now. I like them with that homecooked taste and full of chunky goodness. Damn I sound like an advert.
On the subject of selling unbranded stuff.
Working as a high school student in So. Africa, I once spent a few months in the bakery. People loved our pies and once someone even said ours were better than the frozen "Mama's Pies" in the frozen section. I didn't have the heart to tell her that our came from the same place but in a bulk box and all we did was brush egg yolk over the top before baking them.
Good tip that, egg yolk brushed on any pie (meat) gives it a real home cooked look. Impress the guests.
