I've never seen the Lipton stuff, is it even for sale outside the US?

 

There are plenty of locally manufactured equivalents on sale for you to get your fix.

 

By the way, it's considered poor netiquette to post in ALL CAPS, it's difficult to read and is considered as shouting.

You're more likely to find the Thai version of Knorr.

 

 

 

If you don't find your Lipton locally, you might try online. A google search found ubuy.co.th selling it.

Thing is, do you really want to eat it?

And at 1253 Baht (from RichCor's link) for a 5 pack can you afford to?

The most delicious soup I ever had in my life was a cup of "Lipton Cuppa Soup".   

A friend and I were hiking on a high trail in the Canadian Rockies, it was August and 12 miles into the hike, the temperature dropped dramatically and cold rain became sleet. In short order, we were both borderline hyperthermic.  We had a very small, portable gas stove. I dug in my pack and found some packs of the instant Lipton onion soup.  We brewed it up and to this day, nothing ever tasted so good.  It gave us the energy and lift to hike back out of a bad situation. 

The experience of food is entirely situational

I had a similar experience first time I ever tried a black pudding from Bury (England) market....jogged all the way back home....pure bliss

I would think that a hot drink is the last thing you would want with hyperthermia.

Sorry about the caps. not intended. There are a lot of better soups for sure, but I like Lipton's taste occasionally. Knorr's is good also,kinda the same. I eat very healthy 95% + of the time,but this is one of the cheats, along with pizza,but that's another story. Haven't found a decent one here yet,especially seeing I'm originally from New Jersey, New York area, where the best comes from. And $7 for a box? lol   Thanks people.

Get some thick pea soup or scotch broth with suet dumplings down your neck...now they WILL put hairs on your chest and revitalise the parts that need revitalising..proper stuff that not packet sh 1 te....

I like a lot of soups. Pea soup is one. Never had scotch broth but I'm guessing i can get it in Scotland when I pursue my bucket list of traveling Europe (once things get normal)? I only have 7 hairs on my chest and I like it that way lol

You can generally find "International" foods sold in Tops Markets, but at a markup.

Every once and a while I can find items in Makro, like dried peas or canned Chili Beans, selling for a more reasonable better price that I can use to make my own soups.

I'm learning where to go for things I want. I'm in southern Sisaket province and Ubon has more than we do here. Sisaket also. I have to go to one store for some things,another store for others etc. I heard Bangkok was loaded with falang foods, but it's an 8 hr drive.

That's why I rely a lot on shopping online when the items I want are prepackaged. Otherwise I keep them an eye open for them in my normal wanderings, wait until a sale comes along, or impulse buy when my craving gets the better of me.

I'm about to order a case of cereal I can't get here. That and some water enhancers. When it's ok to fly again, I'm taking an extra suitcase back to Texas just to fill it with things I can't get here.
