Felix Ärtsoppa med fläsk

Felix Ärtsoppa med fläsk is a traditional Swedish pea soup with pork, packaged in a distinctive tubular plastic roll often referred to as a "sausage" or "korv" in Sweden. This product is a staple of Swedish cuisine, particularly associated with Thursdays, a tradition dating back centuries. The soup is ready-to-eat and typically prepared by heating it on a stove or in a microwave. It is characterized by its thick consistency and flavorful blend of yellow peas and smoked pork meat.

The Felix brand has a rich history in Sweden, founded by Herbert Felix in the 1930s. Originally focusing on pickled products, it expanded significantly over the decades to become one of the most recognized food brands in Scandinavia. Today, the brand is a major part of the Swedish food landscape, known for prioritizing local manufacturing and high-quality ingredients. Most Felix products, including their famous soups and ketchups, are produced at facilities within Sweden to maintain authentic flavors and support regional agriculture.

While Felix remains a quintessentially Swedish brand in the eyes of consumers, it is currently owned by Orkla, a leading Norwegian industrial conglomerate. Orkla acquired the brand to strengthen its portfolio in the Nordic food sector. Under Orkla's ownership, Felix continues to operate primarily out of its Swedish home base, benefiting from the large-scale distribution and resources provided by its Norwegian parent company while adhering to the traditional recipes and production methods that have made it a household name.
