Remember that old Campbell's commercial that used to declare, "Soup is good food"?

We subscribe to that adage, especially now that the temperatures have dropped and, as it turns out, we're right in the midst of National Soup Month.

So for this week's edition of Food Fight, we want your nominations for the best places to get a piping bowl of soup in West County.

Yep, it's the West County Food Fight, where we'll look for your help to highlight the best places in the area for pizza, barbecue, burgers and more. Here's how it works:

• Each week, we'll ask a question about your favorites.
• We invite you to post your nominations in the comments below.
• We hope you'll also spread the word about this every week to your friends on Facebook or Twitter and get them involved. 
• Submit comments until 5 p.m. Wednesday.

Then:

• We'll take the top three or four nominees and post an article first thing Thursday morning.
• That article will include a poll highlighting the top nominees.
• After the poll starts on Thursday, you'll be able to vote till Friday at 5 p.m.
• On Saturday, we announce the winner.

So whether it's creamy, brothy, chunky or smooth, what are your nominations? Who has the best soup in West County?

So show your hometown pride and pick a place near you. Boast about that small family restaurant or other great eatery in your neighborhood.

And, if you are pulling for a certain restaurant, share this column on your personal Facebook page and Twitter feed and ask your followers to vote.

This column is all about you—your ideas, your feedback and your voice—so we hope you will chime in and check back.
