What Not to Eat

In my quest to be healthy I've taken to buying soups from Coles and bringing them to work for lunch with a couple of slices of grainy bread. Ok, good in theory. I've had some successes and some failures, more failures in recent days and I'm now terrified of trying something new.

Success:

WeightWatchers - vegetable, beef and pasta - with a hint of chilli. Also the "pumpkin and potato" one was nice. Crash picked these after I stood for too long trying to make up my mind about which ones to buy. I love the bit of spice that the chilli adds to this - I'm not on a weightwatchers plan but I'd happily have it again.

Campbells Country Ladle - Creamy Tomato with cheese ravioli. This is another favourite - again a bit of spice and flavour from the tomato with the little pillows of cheesey ravioli thrown in.

Failures:

Everything so far that I've tasted in the La Zuppa range. The Lentil was revolting and gave me wind. The Ribbolita reminded me of vomit and I couldn't even finish it. The Cauliflower and Pea was the colour of snot, too salty and was just outright disgusting. The packaging and healthy promotion of the product keeps sucking me back in! I still have 2 flavours in the pantry to try. I don't know that I can bear it. Really. I think they are "Tuscan Bean" and "Spinach and Chickpea". Perhaps I'd be better off going back to a proven success and donating these to the dog.

Have you ever bought a product based soley on the pretty packaging only to be greatly disappointed?
