Soup Kitchen International Inc. and the "Original SoupMan," Al Yeganeh, announced Friday that a retail line of "heat-n-serve" soups will be available next month in select grocery stores. National roll-out is slated for September. The 15-ounce packages of turkey chili, jambalaya and seafood bisque, among other offerings, will cost $3.50-$5.50.

Soup Kitchen International said Yeganeh will supervise the production of the soup that caused people to wait in line outside his mid-Manhattan storefront.

It was those lines, and the purported attitude of the eatery owner, that resulted in the famous "The Soup Nazi" episode in the seventh season of the comedy series. The owner was portrayed by actor Larry Thomas.
 
Just a FYI, this guy was a successful soup man before Seinfeld made the goof on him. He's not capitalizing on the show's success, he was already a soup guy before the show.

You're missing the point. Forget about Seinfeld for a moment. This guy owned a soup restaurant before Seinfeld came out. This guy's business was successful then and it's still expanding.

This is his job, he's not going to quit his job just because a sitcom came and went that made fun of him.
