V8 SouthWestern Corn Soup Review
Campbells says that for their V8 SouthWestern Corn Soup, they "take the mild sweetness of yellow corn and balance it with roasted peppers for a friendly little kick in the taste buds. No artificial flavors. No preservatives. Just the delicious, vibrant taste of a full serving of vegetables."
I don't think I could adequately describe how GOOD this soup is. V8 SouthWestern Corn Soup is full bodied, creamy, with a little spicy kick at the end of a mouthful. I was very skeptical about drinking "corn" soup - I don't like creamed corn - but this blew all doubts out of the water. I must confess though that I added a pinch of salt. This filled me up for lunch - I had the entire box which is 2 servings, and a few crackers. Forget all those Progresso & Campbell's condensed soups. After having this you will literally throw them out.
Each 18.3 ounce box of V8 SouthWestern Corn Soup has 2 servings. Each serving (1 cup) provides 150 calories, 3 grams of total fat including 0.5 grams of saturated fat (5% and 3% of the RDA), 26% of the daily value for sodium (620 mg), 3 grams of protein and 26 grams of total carbohydrates which includes 7 grams of sugars and 2 grams of fiber (9% of the RDA).
I'm really disappointed about the amount of sodium and I wish they would work on reducing this. The ingredients were totally in evidence - lots of corn, and a few roasted red peppers. First V8 wowed me by expanding their line to include V8V- Fusion and now they are wowing me again with this soup. V8 soups retail for about $2.99 and it's totally worth every penny.
