apperently its just me I wasnt crazy about their soup.it made my stomach ache.
I think for being soup in a can it was great...low in sodium and tasted good. But it does not compare to home made soup
Campbell's Lite Select Harvest chicken with vegetables was ok . It needed to have more chunks of chicken and a little more flavor. This soup has less sodium than other soups but Campbell's should continue working on lowering the sodium. I would still recommend this soup to friends and family. It's not bad when you are looking for a quick and easy meal.
I, personally, was very disappointed in the lack of vegetarian options. Out of 21 flavors, one would expect Campbell's to provide at least a couple of flavors without chicken stock/broth! Still, I give these soups 3 stars because my husband, an occasional meat-eater, enjoyed them. He said they were very hearty and flavorful, and his favorite was the Italian Sausage. I hope Campbell's takes these reviews to heart and provides some vegetarian options. If they did, my family would buy them again.
In terms of canned soup, I think the Tomato Basil is really very good but overall value not. I am thankful I had a coupon but the regular price of these soups in NYC is too high. I would rather purchase the carton of soups at Trader Joes which is 3x the amount and almost $2.00 less the price. No brainer! It is convenient to have a single serving can and maybe if it were on sale, i would pick them up. The flavors all look delicious.
I tried a few different kinds and prefer those without meat. Although the meat in these is better than most canned soups, it is still not very good.
I had the roasted chicken with vegetables and the Maryland style crab soup. I like that these soups are very light because they work well with my diet, and the vegetables and broth do make them filling. However, as far as overall satisfaction, I prefer the chunky soups, which also offer a healthy version. The select harvest soups have too much broth. Of the two I tried, the chicken soup was okay, mostly just something to get me through the evening without starving. The crab soup, however, is really good. Sometimes, my husband and I like to split a can and have it with our homemade crab salad sandwiches.
They were pretty good, although I don't think they were the best that Campbell's has to offer. I think I will keep with the original soups for my family. They are VERY picky and didn't like them. I liked them though, especially the chicken n noodles kind.
The soups were ok. My husband and son didn't like them much though.
The soups are quick and easy mini-meals when you're short of time. I wouldn't recommend eating canned soups too often as it does contains preservatives (and nothing can compare to real homemade soup!). I also didn't like the "Light" versions of the soups because I felt all Campbell did was simply dilute the regular non-light version of their soup! To get your money's worth and still eat "Light", I'd recommend buying their regular non-light soup, add some water to "light"-en it, and splitting it into two meals.
I tried the Clam Chowder and was not impressed. But then later I tried Campbell's regular Clam Chowder and thought it tasted very similar, so at least the flavor is consistant. I like the idea of the real ingredients and look forward to trying some of the other varieties.
This soup was good, but I have had better. Doesn't have a lot of flavor as I have come to expect from my normal soup.
I liked the Campbell's Select Harvest garlic and potato, but I can't say I loved it. I definitely noticed the lack of flavoring. I am sure there is only so much you can do and keep it low soduim. So I rate it very good for what it is.
I had just bought some of this soup, as it was on sale at my local grocery store. When I got the coupons, I handed them out to friends, who were super excited to try it out. Mostly, I have gotten good responses. I think that the flavor was left a bit to be desired though.
These were very tasty soups, I loved the Southwest Chicken. However, they do have added ingredients such as gluten and "natural flavorings" (which usually disguises MSG) so I do not feel they are a processed food I can feed my family with confidence.
