The Camden, N.J., food company's Canadian subsidiary began offering halal soups, or those made in accordance with Islamic dietary laws, in January, The Washington Post reports.
Pamela Geller called for a boycott through her widely read blog, Atlas Shrugs, the paper said. She is against the food giant's decision to use the Islamic Society of North America to certify the products.
The society was alleged by government prosecutors to have ties to the terrorist group Hamas in a 2007 conspiracy case, the Post says, which the society denies.

The Boycott Campbell Soup Facebook page is "liked" by nearly 4,000 people.
