Sodium/Salt
|
|
|
Do your
soups/sauces contain lots of Salt?
|
|
|
|
|
We manufacture soups and
sauces for restaurant use. They require that the
soups taste perfect, each and every time they
prepare them - so we balance our flavors for the
average consumer. If you like extra salt, you'll
need to add some. If you like less salt - some of
our soups are lower in sodium (under 800 mg per 8
fl oz), you can tell which are which by looking for
the
icon next to the soup
you'd like to try.

Do your soups
taste salty?
|
|
|
|
|
We don't think so! Since
we make soups for restaurants - all of our soups
have been tested for that use. But you may
disagree. If you think our soups are too salty, we
recommend that you add another cup of boiling water
to 4 cups of soup right before serving. This will
dramatically change the amount of salt. Also - 10
of our 18 soups are have less than 800 mg of sodium
(watch for the
symbol on the website).
If you know you are sensitive to the taste - pick
from that group. We want you to love our soups -
that's the whole idea! And if you find one of these
10 soups bland - add salt! It's all that's
missing.
