Not impressed with the article. Very little mention of carb amounts and no proper direct nutritional comparison of the featured soups. IMO none of them sound that great.

This looks American.
Note the spelling of FIBER rather than FIBRE in UK.

Its so easy to make soup......you control what goes in it.......why buy it???

It talks about 'balancing' bgs through ingredients so it seems to be based on GI principles and 'Food Combining'.

Dont want to offend anyone but I have never got my head around tinned soups. Being Scottish we were brought up with soup, feeding six in the fifties/ sixties, it was a filler. I make and sell 6 /8 pots each week and DH and I eat any unsold. I often make just for us. Its so easy , tasty, and a good way to get veggies inside us . Tomorrow will be creamy spinach, and either vegetable with beans or maybe mushroom. The spinach was in the reduced section, so I bought three bags......bargain. Appreciated that some people dont like soup, but the tinned stuff and the readymade ones are awful....>Gloopy and full of preservative. Off my high horse now

Agree re gloopy. Those in pots aren't much better.
Mind you, you don't need to be a great cook to knock much pre-made food into a cocked hat

Made a delicious pea & mint soup last night, took no more than hour to prepare & cook.

Prefer homemade but don't mind a good quality canned soup, Sainsbury's own are good, tomato soup especially.

Home made soup all the way here.

Unfortunately the article does read a bit like a clickbaity advertorial. And I’m not really sure what constitutes an “intuitive eating nutrition expert”?

Tinned soup is often very salty, as the page admits.

Is it the "eating" or the "nutrition" or the "expert" that's "intuitive"? In any case, presumably "intuitive" means 'untrained'?

Just made some cream of veg soup

Loads of veg... stock......4 hours in slow cooker....splash of low fat cream and blitz

So easy and tasty

Sure, my preference is homemade soup but, when you work full time and need something quick to heat in the microwave between meetings, there is a place for tinned soups.
No need to mention batch cooking. Add a family or other commitments to a full time job and it is easier said than done. How many people will get home from work at 6:30 or later then have 4 hours to put on the slow cooker?

Sorry, I will step down from my soap box and visit one of you for your yummy home made soups. I’ll bring home made bread.
