Low salt Canned Soups

[n2ize]

Okay, I know that there is nothing like homemade soups and canned soup is a far cry from good home made stuff. . But sometimes at this time of year you just get a hankering for soup and you don't have time to make a homemade pot and that is where canned soup comes in. The thing is I tried some of these "low salt" canned soups and they just don't cut it unless I doctor them up with some salt, cheese, spices, etc. From now on I stick to regular canned soups. No low salt versions for me.

Reminds me of pizza doctor.
Not anymore though. Short of making fresh dough, I get crescent dough in a tube and lay it out and start topping.

I'll agree that the low salt foods aren't as good as homemade, but you can get used to less salt in your food, and after a while, you start tasting the excess salt in processed foods and get turned off by them.

I've had to go on a low-carb, low-protein, low-fat, low-sodium diet (yes, all that's left is grass), and when I started looking at labels I realized that limiting the salt pretty much took care of the other restrictions. Lemon juice, or fresh ground pepper, and some good seasonings work wonders with the bland stuff.

Or, you could just have a stock pot going all the time and have real soup!

But be careful comparing sodium levels. The Progresso cans are slightly larger, and the label says two servings per can.
When you do the math the ugly truth emerges.

Hello.

Soup in a can?!
For a Mexican that means Chili!
Just try and find that in healthy!
But, when asked, I point out that I do take care of my sodium intake, and outlet, and gas production, all at once! ;)

yeah, they're pretty meh.

the way many of these "low-" foods work is that while they're low in one component (salt, sugar, fat, carb), they're often higher in other components. it ends up being a wash if you eat moderately. there are exceptions, but this has been true for me more often than not.
