When you get a cold, what food do you turn to for relief? For me, it’s chicken noodle soup. Unfortunately, this is a food I will be enjoying a lot over the next few days. But, there is only one brand I want when I’m sick. Campbell’s Chicken Noodle Soup is not only low in calories, but has a rich broth that helps the symptoms of almost any cold. But, what else makes Campbell’s my favorite brand?
Campbell’s Chicken Noodle Soup Review: Taste
Campbell’s Chicken Noodle Soup has a hearty broth that seems to coat a sore throat. Being condensed, it is high in sodium. But, when I’m sick I usually have a hard time tasting food so I normally prepare it with only half a can of water. That way, I can actually taste the rich broth. The pasta is perfectly cooked, but the meat is a little lacking in flavor. Still, I love the flavor of Campbell’s Chicken Noodle Soup.
Campbell’s Chicken Noodle Soup helps soothe a sore throat, but it also helps with congestion. As you drink the hot broth, is seems to clear some of the congestion that has built up in your throat. Also, Campbell’s Chicken Noodle Soup just makes you feel cozy and warm. I’m not exactly sure what it is, but this product is always one of the natural remedies I use whenever I have a bad cold.
A serving of Campbell’s Chicken Noodle Soup is ½ a cup. This half-cup serving only contains 60 calories, 15 fat calories, 1.5 grams of fat, 0.5 grams of saturated fat, 0 grams of trans-fat, 15mg of cholesterol, 890mg of sodium, 8 grams of carbohydrates, less than 1 gram of fiber, 1 gram of sugar, 3 grams of protein, 4% of your daily Vitamin A, and 2% of your daily iron. As you can see, Campbell’s Chicken Noodle Soup is fairly healthy, except for the sodium.
Campbell’s Chicken Noodle Soup is very affordable. A 10.75 ounce can usually costs around $0.75. Whenever this product is on sale, I stock up. It has a long shelf life, which means I have it handy whenever I feel a cold coming on.
I would have to give Campbell’s Chicken Noodle Soup 4 stars. Yes, it is high in sodium, but you’re probably only going to eat it when you’re sick. So, the next time you feel a cold coming on, grab a can of Campbell’s Chicken Noodle Soup and keep congestion at bay.
