Amy’s Soup, Vegan Light in Sodium Lentil Vegetable Soup, Gluten Free, Made With Organic Vegetables, Canned Soup, 14.5 Oz (12 Pack)

Thus soup is tasty and healthy in my opinion. It is not easy to find reduced sodium in stores. Glad Amazon has it. Only negative is that four of the twelve cans had dents in them. Not sure why this consistently happens with the majority of canned items I buy from Amazon.

This soup is not only high in Vitamin A and C but is great to have on hand for a quick lunch or dinner, either alone with supplemented with bread or crackers and a salad. It is also completely gluten-free. Imagine this: you're hungry, don't have anything on hand, don't want to out and buy groceries. With a 12 pack of this on hand (currently averaging $2.50 a can but a deal because it is so filling), you simply need to open the can, heat it and add whatever you want to offset the low sodium - unless you are on a low-sodium diet. I'm NOT on a low-sodium diet and don't mind the lack of salt. However, if you want a stronger or saltier taste, you can add a bit of regular or garlic salt or salt substitute. I also prefer to add a dollop of sour cream or low-fat yogurt and that makes a HUGE difference. With some crackers, I'm set for lunch or even dinner. Look below for the nutritional content and other benefits but don't overlook those impressive amounts of Vitamin A and C. Sure, you'll need more for your daily requirements but this doesn't have that horrible preservative taste of other canned soups and my whole family loves it. I sometimes add a bit of chicken or vegetable broth and add some lightly sauteed onions or celery. But none of that is necessary. Good to have on hand for power outages, blizzards or times when you need food and the stove won't work. It can be eaten cold in a pinch. Other pros: 1. No trans fats, MSG or preservatives. NO GMOS, no bio-engineered ingredients. 2. Tastes a bit bland by itself (low sodium) but add some pepper, a bit of salt and a dollop of sour cream and yogurt and it is elevated to a far tastier soup. 3. Great to have on hand for emergencies or when you're rushed for time and need a quick meal. Perhaps hearty eaters would want more but I find a can to be totally satisfying and hearty enough to keep me full till dinner or eve as a dinner entree. 4. My whole family likes it but they do prefer salt. So take a chance on this and see if your family likes it. If they do, having this on hand could be a major time saver and you'll know they aren't getting trans fats. 5. Relatively high vitamin content compared to other commercial soups. Nutritional content (daily values): Vitamin A- 45 percent, Vitamin C - 20 percent, Calcium - 6%, Iron - 15%, Fat - only 4 grams (no trans fat and only .5% of saturated fat), no cholesterol, 340 mg sodium, 24 grams of carbs, dietary fiber 32%, protein - 7 grams, sugars - 5 grams. We find that if we have this soup before a larger meal we don't feel inclined to eat as much. If you are trying to lose weight, this is a plus. Each can is around 360 calories unless you want to stretch this to 2 servings. I don't prefer to do that but if you have toddlers or very young children, half a can should be plenty. I'm sold on this wonderful soup!

Love these soups. When I go through my vegan phases they're a staple for quick meals.

We love this soup and buy it constantly. We keep cans in our pantry when we need a meal in a hurry. Just heat and eat! It’s not really a kid food but all three of my kids love it. They will even take it to school in their thermos. The taste is great—lightly flavored, not bland at all but easy to eat. The texture is good. Lots of lentils and pieces of veggies. The whole can is 270 calories, 11g or protein, and 8g of fiber. A really filling combo. Like all soups, it is high in sodium.

As I continue to state in all Amy’s products that I have reviewed for Amazon, and I have reviewed many, Amy’s products are very nutritious, high in fiber, organic and tasty. But unless the low sodium versions are available, one has to either use less product or use the product as a source of salt mixed with other food items that are low in salt. That option has worked well for me and my family. That said, this review is also a plea to all third-party vendors on Amazon, now that the pandemic is widely proclaimed to be under control, to bring their prices back down close to what they were pre-pandemic. Amazon has done this to an admirable extent – setting an example. To wit, the price for a can of any kind of Amy’s lentil soup is 4 to 5 dollars a can when it was half that pre-pandemic. Certainly there would be a flood of consumers to buy much more product if the prices are lower. It’s just common economic sense.

I like soup, especially in the winter months, this is a great choice!

I buy Amy's low sodium soup in the grocery store all the time even though the price is very high. It is very difficult to find low sodium soup. When I saw the price on Amazon I assumed I was getting a good buy because I was purchasing the product in quantity. The heavy duty cardboard exterior box used for shipping, as well as the cardboard holder used for securing the cans was NOT damaged - perfect condition. However, all of the cans were extremely dented to the point that I was afraid to eat the product and certainly could not donate it to my local soup kitchen. It was very obvious that these cans were rejects that could not be sold through a regular grocery store because no one would buy cans this dented off the shelf. These damaged cans were packaged up and sold on Amazon as if there was nothing wrong with the cans. Shame on Amy's for selling a damaged product. I will definitely be looking for another brand of soup to buy and considering how much I spend on Amy's soups, Amy's will lose more money than I did.

Received my first order with damaged cans from which liquid had poured from the lid tops badly enough to soak the labels and the plastic wrap the box was sealed in. With a prompt complaint I received a second replacement delivery the following day at no extra charge. Thankful for the immediate processing of my transaction. However, my replacement delivery has 4 out of 12 dented (but not leaking) cans of soup. I will not pretend to know just when or where after passing manufacturer inspection that the damaging occurred. I offer review for consideration ONLY for future orders placed. Amy’s is expensive and offers a great quality soup.
