How good is this? It's subjective, but for me I've purchased a 12 pack five times, and I noticed today that I'm out. I add some pepper for spice, and the juice from half a lemon for tartness. Super good, especially in cold weather.

  4. I stopped buying Progresso because it seems to be mostly water with a very low ratio of solids.

    4c water
    1c rice
    1 can chicken
    1/4c chicken powder
    1c frozen mixed vegs
    salt, pepper, etc.
    boil 5 mins, simmer 5 mins, eat
    total cost about $5 for 4 servings

  5. Hey CW, I stumbled across this Campbell's "Homestyle" chicken noodle a year ago and have taken a liking to it. Seems to be thicker, more flavorful than regular chicken noodle, and though the cans are smaller than Progresso they are affordable. I've bought 3 cases.

  6. Over processed garbage, frankly. Mostly non-nutritive at this point.

  7. Good emergency backup food. Stores for some time. Food when you really need it.

  9. Great comments above. Local stores in Berkeley of the Midwest (Madison, WI) have sales on them pretty regularly - almost every other month. Great to stock up on for a quick take to work, take camping, or for emergencies. Ghostsniper - I will have to try your recipe as we are trying to get more whole foods and very little preservatives in our daily usage. I remember a guy who used to have a segment on local news where he would take 1/3 of a cup of frozen veggies and purree them and then add them with 2/3 of a cup of the frozen veggies in normal canned condensed chicken noodle soup. This made it a bit thicker and added more veggies.
