THE highly anticipated Heinz Christmas Dinner Big Soup complete with all the trimmings has hit UK shelves – and many Brits say they love it.
The two-minute Christmas dinner was first released in a small quantity last year with 500 tins selling out within minutes.

Heinz has upped its production this year to 20,000 tins exclusively sold at Asda stores for £2.
But the rather chunky Christmas tinner – including turkey, potatoes, stuffing, brussel sprouts and pigs in blanket – is proving to be a hit with customers.
One big name fan is Drew Barrymore who last year hailed it as “hearty” and “yummy” on her chat show.
Other fans have shared their delight at the rather creative festive feast sharing on the official Heinz UK Twitter: “Picked up 4 today in Edinburgh.”
Another added on the Heinz UK Instagram page “omg obsessed” and “I wish I could get my hands on this. I miss Christmas at home.”
Many have also shared their frustrations are at not being able to get their hands on the limited-edition soup.

While many users left positive responses on the UK Newest Foods Instagram account such as “Need to try this!”, “I want one” and “I NEED this”, others commented “why?????” or left a vomiting emoji. Heinz UK’s official Instagram account also left a comment reading “Woooo”.
And to make sure even more people can enjoy the meal that is fast becoming a Christmas staple, Heinz release a vegan version for 2022. The plant-based alternative includes veggies, vegan sausages and stuffing balls.
Bahar Kiransa, Marketing Manager, Heinz Soups said: “After last year’s reaction to Heinz Christmas Dinner Big Soup, bringing it back again this year was a no brainer. So, we are so excited to relaunch our sensational seasonal addition to Heinz’s Big Soup family, and this time on a much larger scale, with a vegan version, too.
We’ve been hard at work all year perfecting our recipes for both the meat and vegan versions. We are particularly proud to be introducing the vegan version this year, as everyone deserves to be able to try the delicious flavours of our much-loved Heinz Christmas Dinner Soup.”
