As long as soup is well in date in can go to a Food Bank, otherwise they can't accept it. If the only problem is sweetness then you culd ad a squeeze of lemon juice and serve it with cubes of feta or grated extra strong cheddar melting into it0

Add a good spoonful of basic cheap cream cheese and a few fresh chopped herbs to turn it into a deliciously creamy soup. Or add vegetables, stock and broken spaghetti, cook it and have yourself a lovely minestrone.
Or: fry an onion and a few sausages, top up with the soup and stir until a but reduced, serve on top of pasta or mashed potatoes.Finally I'm an OAP and can travel free (in London at least!).0 -
Tomato soup cake is actually very nice - I used to make it when someone in the household had an allergy issue. But it doesn't use up much!
As well as the excellent suggestions, what about roast veg soup? I make this a lot. In this case, roast the peppers & onions and blitz them with the tomato soup.
I'd also try adding a dash of Worcester or soy sauce to the original tomato soup to cut the sweetness.0 -
How about adding it to vodka and Worcester sauce and making bloody Marys? I am sure if you add enough vodka it will taste ok0

I would imagine tinned tomato soup can be used in any recipe that requires chopped tomatoes or passata.
If you're willing to go one step beyond, you could pick up a load of RTC bread and set up an impromptu soup kitchen. That would help humanity.Value-for-money-for-me-puhleeze!

I think you'll find it less sickenly sweet if you add some lemon juice.0

You could also use it to dye white clothes that have seen better days. Just soak in dish of soup and it will be forever orange no matter how much you wash it!
You have to wonder how much colourant is in this soup as you drop some on your top and it never comes out.!
