All you need to do is to 'Like' the Heinz Facebook page and then send them a 'Get Well' can of soup with your friends name on it. Yes it will be printed on the can and sent to your sick pal. There are two flavors to choose from Heinz: Cream of chicken and Heinz: Cream of tomato. It will cost you £1.99 via Paypal (including postage). You can design your can and preview it before sending it. Once it reaches your friend you will be sent a confirmation email. This can be done only for friends in the UK. Fantastic idea from Heinz.
