| I had the carb focus tuscan tomato, and it was SOOOOO good. Got it at Wal Mart, 9 carbs per serving, which I believe was a 1/2 cup. I would definately buy it again.

| I dont remember the kind I got, but it had Carb in the title and was in a little cup like cup-o-noodles. It was HORRIBLE!!!!!!! I tried two different kinds, the vegetable and the tomato- both are vegan and have less the 7 net carbs...... THe ingredients are dry and you add hot water to make it soup like, but the dry ingredints never really dissolve so you are left with a terrible gloppy mess that tastes like bad seasonings. YUCK. |

| Although there are a reasonable number of low-carb soups on the market now, convenience would be my only reason for using them. The ones that I make at home from scratch are scrumptious compared to anything on the market. Here are some ingredient ideas: Any low-carb, high fiber vegetable(s) that you like, either whole or pureed (or a combination of the two) Beef, chicken, fish or vegetable broth or stocks Cream (to thicken a soup or make cream soups) Wine (particularly in bisque soups) Meats, sausage, fish, bacon, etc. Cheese (as a thickener, garnish, or to make a cheesy vegetable soup such as broccoli-cheddar soup) Some wonderful naturally low-carb homemade soups (easily convertible from your favorite higher-carb recipe) include lobster, shrimp or fish bisques, onion soup (you can do this the traditional French way all the way down to using low-carb croutons that float with cheese on top), French-Style soups consisting of vegetable puree, broth, herbs and cream, vegetable-cheese soups (cauliflower, broccoli), cream-of-whatever soups, any kind of broth-based soup with vegetables, meats, fish etc and miso soup. Just as the frozen "low-carb" entrees are neither as good nor as low-carb as the entrees you can make at home, so it goes with soups and many kinds of baked goods..... When I go out to buy low-carb foods, I stick with the ice creams and candies and chips that are hard to make at home. I tend to make things such as entrees, sauces, salad dressings, soups, cakes and baked goods at home where I have more control of the quality and carb count of what goes in (it's amazing how many low-carb processed food manufacturere "cheat" on their labels and dramatically underestimate the carb counts) and do a better job of it in general......it's less costly too! |

| I love the Campbells Carb Request broccoli cheddar. It's scrumptious and has only 3g of carbs per cup (2 cups/can). The ingredient list is a bit dodgy, containing some starch, but it's great for emergencies. I had some when I had a cold a couple weeks ago, and it really satisfied my need for hearty soup. |

| I saw a coupon in the Suday paper for the low carb Campbell's soup, haven't had a chance to see if they are carrying it around here or check the ingrdients but I noticed the one in the add had penne pasta in it.

| I caught some horrible cold that had me in bed all weekend. My mom (bless her heart) bought me Carb Options Cream Of Chicken Soup. It has 6 carbs per serving and it's pretty good.
