'Soupersize' Nutrition

摘要

Nothing beats the aroma and taste of homemade soup on chilly autumn evenings. Today, however, Americans barely even have time to make a sandwich, let alone to simmer made-from-scratch broth and organic veggies. Fortunately, organic food companies all over the country are producing natural ready-to-eat soups and broths for those with the desire to eat nutritious meals—even if there isn't much time. The soup aisle has always been a popular stop in grocery and convenience stores. These days, however, market leaders like Campbell's are not seeing their customary growth and profits. The reason may be because people are becoming more aware of what they eat, and many no longer consider typical condensed soup-loaded with sodium, and filled with overcooked vegetables, limp noodles and some type of animal-based stock-to be part of a healthy diet.
