A good bowl of soup can make any day better. So, here are the Top 10 Best Canned Soup Brands
To Buy! Because really, how many of us want to go through the trouble of making it from
scratch?
Wolfgang Puck Tomato Basil Bisque
Wolfgang Puck was founded by no one other than Wolfgang Puck, the famous chef who began
cooking as a child. He was encouraged by his mother, who was a chef in the Austrian town
where he was born, and with her support, he started his formal training at fourteen. In
1975, Wolfgang moved to Los Angeles, where he was noticed by the Hollywood elite. With
his dynamic personality and culinary brilliance, he was able to rise to the top. With such
an intense culinary background, itâ€™s unsurprising that Wolfgangâ€™s soup is
just amazing. Especially the Tomato Basil Bisque; it is a taste bud blessing to whoever
is lucky enough to be eating it. Unlike what most people might believe, tomato bisque isn't
just some regular tomato soup; it's so much heartier.Â The Tomato Basil Bisque has lumps
of organic tomatoes inside of it to make it more filling, and the basil balances the taste
out perfectly. If you ever have the chance to try this soup, you should definitely jump
at the opportunity.
Campbell's Healthy Request
While Campbellâ€™s definitely isnâ€™t a brand youâ€™d think of when trying
to get healthier, their Healthy Request line of products might make you reconsider. This
line is full of all the good stuff: vegetables grown on trustworthy farms, antibiotic-free
chicken, and pasta made from enriched flour, water, and egg. Not only that, but Campbellâ€™s
offers over a hundred gluten-free products and a wide range of vegetarian and vegan soups!
Plus, the company plans to make 100% of its packaging recyclable or industrially compostable
by 2030, and even the current cans they use contain up to 35% recycled steel. Their website
states that their steel cans are among the safest, most convenient, affordable, and environmentally
sustainable forms of packaging. But, the company also sells sipping cups that are currently
not recyclable. While the company is actively working to increase the sustainability of
their sipping cups, it seems like they havenâ€™t gotten there quite yet, meaning theyâ€™ve
got their work cut out for them. But, while these soups are a great source of fiber and
(depending on which soup you get) vitamins, there is a downside: most of Campbellâ€™s
soups are way too high in sodium. Even their Healthy Request Tomato Soup contains over
400 mg of sodium, and though thatâ€™s only 18% of your total intake of the day,
it definitely adds up. So, if youâ€™re wary about your sodium intake, buyer beware!
Well Yes! Chicken Noodle Soup
Do you like chicken noodle soup? Well Yes! Of course you do. Chicken Noodle soup is just
about as iconic as soup gets. You eat it when you're sick, feeling nostalgic, or just want
to warm up on a cold day - there aren't any bad excuses to enjoy a nice bowl of chicken
noodle soup.Â Much like the Healthy Request line of products by Campbellâ€™s, the
company has made a Well Yes! Line of products that markets itself to more health-conscious
consumers. Obviously, this line of soups packs more than only one tasty flavor, like theÂ Italian
vegetable soup or theÂ cauliflower and roasted potato sipping soup,Â but their chicken
noodle soup is pretty hard to beat. What makes this soup so incredible is its ingredients.
It is deemedÂ as a healthier alternative to other soups because of its use of clean
ingredientsÂ with no artificial flavoring and no added sugars! Despite its health benefits
and great promise, the reviews for the chicken noodle soup aren't always the best.Â Some
reviewers claim that the only thing you can taste is the salt, while others say that thereâ€™s
an overpowering flavor of rosemary or sage. In any case, Campbell's Well Yes! Chicken
Noodle Soup should still be a part of your pantry scene - it's always there to save the
day.Â
Rao’s Italian Wedding Soup
Raoâ€™s was founded all the way back in 1896 by Joshua Anthony Rao, an Italian
immigrant. He started a restaurant in Italian Harlem, and he ran it until his death in 1909.
After that, the restaurant changed hands a few times,Â and, eventually, they were able
to open up a second restaurant in 2006.Â Today, the company sells products in gourmet markets
and supermarkets all around.Â Youâ€™ve probably heard of Raoâ€™s before because
they make an absolutely rocking marinara sauce, but did you know that they make soup, too?
And not just any soup, some really tasty ones. An honorable mention would have to be Rao's
Italian Wedding Soup, also known as "minestra maritata," which is a reference to the flavor
produced by the combination or "marriage" of greens and meat. The Italian Wedding Soup
is made of beef meatballs, pork meatballs, spinach, carrots, onions, and pasta resting
in chicken broth. Not only is the presentationÂ phenomenal, with Rao's signature glass jar making it look
extra fancy, but the smell is deliciously strong enough to make your mouth water after
one simple whiff. Reviewers online have admitted that this particular soup is rather salty,
so if you're trying to watch your sodium intake, this one might not be the best match for you,
but otherwise, get your soup on and indulge in this perfect marriage of ingredients!Â Â
Daily Harvest Weekly Soup Box
For those of you who love the convenience of food being shipped right to your door,
the Daily Harvest Weekly Soup Box might be the right choice for you. In case you haven't
seen this all over social media yet,Â weâ€™ll break it down for you: Daily Harvest delivers
farm-frozen, superfood-based, pre-portioned, no-cook recipes - like smoothies, soups, and
Harvest Bowls right to your door. Plus, everything they deliver is plant-based, nutritious, and
has minimal ingredients. Their website states that they work with farmers to grow the best
produce, harvest it at the right time, and then they freeze it at the height of freshness,
giving their food amazing flavor and additional nutrition. On top of that, 98% of the ingredients
Daily Harvest uses are organic! The boxes arrive packed in dry ice, so you can just
pop the convenient cups in your freezer and defrost them when needed. Customers are absolutely
raving about everything this brand has to offer, and that includes the soups. Theyâ€™re
simple, convenient, and delicious. Plus, the brand has a lot of options. Some of their
best-selling soups include Carrot and Coconut Curry Soup and Tomato and Zucchini Minestrone
Soup, but there are plenty of others to choose from. The only downside is the price; while
there are coupons and discounts online, youâ€™re still shelling out a minimum of $70 a week
for 9 cups of soup. But, if you have the means, then why not give it a go?
Progresso Southwest Style Black Bean and Vegetable Soup
When it comes to soup, we all have our comfort flavor. Whether it's tomato, chicken noodle,
or even vegetable - there is a bowl of soup for everyone. Progresso has catered to every
taste, including the Southwest palate with its Southwest Style Black Bean and Vegetable
Soup. This hearty and filling soup is loaded with red bell peppers, green bell peppers,Â corn,
tomatoes, and cilantro, along with black beans, all in a thickÂ chicken broth. It's the
perfect soup if you're looking to fill up for a big day or simply have a significant
appetite - that is, of course, if you're lucky enough to get the right can. Apparently, sometimes
when you open up a can, the vegetables can be pretty scarce, leaving you with what isÂ basically
a regular bowl of black beans sitting in broth. Progreso is known for its nourishing and tasty
soups, and most of the time, the Southwest Style Black Bean and Vegetables soup is no
exception. On the bright side, Progresso now offers a "reduced sodium" version of its Southwest-inspired
soup, which makes it one of the best options on this list, compared to the other salty
soups. In other words, this could become your new go-to canned soup as it is reduced in
sodium but full in flavor!
Zoup! Good, Really Good Broth
While this isnâ€™t technically a canned soup, Zoup! Definitely deserves a spot on
this list. This soup company was started by two spice merchants who would sell seasonings
and soup mixes to restaurants. The more business they got, the more they realized that soup
was pretty much an afterthought in many restaurants. Being the entrepreneurs they were, they recognized
this hole in the market, and they were determined to fill it. They believed that soup had the
power to bring people together and warm both stomachs and hearts. So, the founders sold
their original seasoning business and teamed up with a top chef. After two years of creating
and evaluating recipes, they were ready to introduce their first soups. The first Zoup!
restaurant opened its doors in 1998 and took the world by storm. The company has almost
100 locations across the US and Canada and delivers its heart-warming soup to millions
of customers. As for their "Good, Really Good Broth," this product came into being when
the founders realized there was no broth on grocery shelves that was good enough to drink.
Enter their product: Good, Really Good Broth. Made without any artificial ingredients, this
savory broth is loaded with nutrients and is literally good enough to drink straight
from the jar.Â
Nona Lim Coconut Lime Chicken Bone Broth Cup
Okay, okay, so we know this one technically doesn't come in a can either, but, in our
defense, this container is actually way cooler - a ready-to-go microwave-friendly sipping
cup! Made with coconut cream, lemongrass, and ginger; this Thai-style creamy broth is
a meal in and of itself. But this singular product isnâ€™t the only thing that this
brand has to offer. For the Singapore-born founder Nona Lim,Â starting a food company
wasnâ€™t even something that crossed her mind until after her career as a professional
fencer. On her website, she states that she was always keeping an eye open for natural
ways to get a competitive advantage. What she noticed was that her body would only function
at peak performance when fueled with whole, clean foods. So, she did what anyone would
do: she became a certified nutrition consultant to learn more about food and medicine. After
that, she worked on creating her own brand, and in 2014, Nona Lim - the brand - was born.
The aim of the company is to combine good food with good health. With a wide selection
of dishes, Nona Lim offers fresh rice noodles and slow-simmered bone broths with healing
Asian herbs, just to name a few. Nona Lim has said that all of these dishes are ones
that nourish her and remind her of the comfort of home. Well, we could all use a bit of that,
especially in these times. Good for you, Nona Lim.
Pacific Foods
Once again, these soups are technically in a box, not a can. But hey, itâ€™s not
our fault that most brands have decided to move on from tin cans. Pacific Foods wanted
to do things differently from day one. Their main focus is nourishment (their tag line
is â€œNourish Every Body animals, and the planet. As of 2021, their main goals are
to source pure, organic, and quality ingredients, create simple recipes, enrich communities,
and follow sustainable practices. Pacific Foods was founded in 1987, and they started
small with the packaging of tofu and milk. But, as time went on, they started creating
non-dairy products, and people began to notice the brand. Within ten years, theyâ€™d
gone from tofu and milk to broths, creamy and hearty soups, full meals and sides, and
so much more! In 2017, Pacific Foods announced that they had signed an agreement to be acquired
by the Campbell Soup Company. In the announcement, they said that both companies had similar
values and similar origins. On the more technical side of things, joining forces with Campbell
will allow for increased capacity, distribution, and marketing strength to achieve the brandâ€™s
potential and accelerate growth and scale organics. In other words, Pacific Foods is
here to stay, and they want to spread their nourishing goodness across the globe.
Amy’s
Much like Pacific Foods, Amyâ€™s Kitchen was founded in 1987. But their story is a
little bit different. It all started when one of the founders, Rachel Berliner, was
pregnant and on bed rest. Her husband decided to go out and get some soup for her. But,
when he discovered there werenâ€™t any organic and vegetarian options that tasted
good, he decided to make his own. They got some family members to help out, and pretty
soon, they had the beginnings of a business underway. Over the years, Amyâ€™s Kitchen
has grown to be a big name in organic and non-GMO foods. The company has over 120 vegan
offerings and makes over 130 gluten-free products, and perhaps the most delicious product they
offer is their soup. Amy's Organic Light-in-Sodium Lentil Vegetable is tasty and packed full
of fiber from the lentils and vegetables. It containsÂ celery, onions, carrots, and
potatoes and isÂ free of gluten, soy, and lactose. Plus, the ingredients arenâ€™t
mushy or soggy like most canned soups, and each can has 50% less sodium than typical
soups. It's the perfect soup if you're vegan or simply if you're home sick. No matter the
situation,Â Amy's Organic Light-in-Sodium Lentil Vegetable is sure to satisfy your soup
needs.Â If youâ€™re looking for something organic and without GMOs, this is definitely
a good choice.
