Simply Chicken Noodle Soup — OKAY
Munch or Dump rates Simply Chicken Noodle Soup by Simply Campbell OKAY — score 60/90.
A genuinely simple, mostly whole-food soup, but high sodium and carrageenan keep it from clean.
Why this verdict
- Real chicken stock and white meat chicken lead the list, not fillers
- Whole-food vegetables (carrots, celery, onion, garlic) you'd recognize
- No artificial colors, flavors, or chemical preservatives
- Carrageenan thickener can irritate sensitive digestion
- Canned soup sodium is the real catch — easy to overshoot daily salt
Ingredients (12)
- chicken stock (safe) — Real broth base, contributes protein and minerals.
- White Meat Chicken (safe) — Actual lean protein, not mechanically separated paste
- carrots (safe) — Whole vegetable, beta-carotene and fiber.
- Noodles (wheat flour, eggs, egg whites) (moderate) — Refined-flour egg noodles, simple but starchy
- Celery (safe) — Whole-food vegetable, classic chowder aromatic.
- potato starch (moderate) — Another refined starch thickener layered on top of the modified maize starch.
- Salt (moderate) — Added sodium for flavour.
- dehydrated onions (safe) — Real onion, just dried. Adds flavour, harmless.
- Natural Flavoring (moderate) — Vague but not artificial; minor concern
- Carrageenan (moderate) — Stabilizer linked to gut irritation in some studies.
- spice (safe) — Basic seasoning, negligible impact
- Dehydrated Garlic (safe) — Dried garlic, nothing else. Flavor plus the sulfur compounds garlic is known for.
