Every soup broken down by tin and by pot, with salt compared against NHS daily reference intakes for children and adults.
Soup is a salt product more than anything else. The vegetables are genuinely useful, and the stock they sit in is where most of a day's salt can arrive.
Tins stating two servings are almost always eaten by one person, which doubles the salt figure most people read off the label.
A single tin of soup can carry half an adult's daily salt allowance and can exceed a young child's entire allowance.
Cream of chicken, mushroom and tomato soups carry saturated fat that broth and vegetable soups do not. The calorie gap is meaningful.
Chunky vegetable and lentil soups supply real fibre, which is rare in convenience food, and are worth separating from the smoother varieties on that basis.
Each product page includes a full nutrition breakdown per serving and per pack, portion size comparisons, age-adjusted NHS daily reference intake calculations for children aged 4 to 17, an interactive calculator for your child's specific age and gender, and a complete ingredient and allergen guide.
