Cup a soup thoughts 🤔

[Oldhippy]

Nope.

If your using it to feed yourself when you haven’t the time to make a snack, then Fossyant’s comment is a valid one.

No, I'm not using cup a soups as main meal replacements, I'm using them as beverage replacements. When I said I use them as snack replacements I should have also said that I dont really snack at all. I have one main meal a day, very rarely having a snack. When I do have a snack it'll be something bought from a shop like a vegetarian pie, or fish and peas from my regular chip shop. In fact I'm probably getting more carbohydrates now than I was getting before I started on cup a soups. As for their salt content, I must say that I have hardly had any leg cramps in bed since I started having 'salty' cup a soups.

Salt content by falvour (per sachet):

Chicken	0.51 g
Golden Vegetable	1.41 g
Tomato	0.50 g
Beef & Tomato	0.51 g
Minestrone	0.58 g
Chicken & Vegetable with Croutons	1.35 g
Broccoli & Cauliflower	0.63 g
Carrot & Coriander	0.54 g

Salt isn't necessarily bad for us, as I've just said in my above post.😉

I didn’t say you were. I said that, given your first post said “it also feeds me, when I haven't the time to make a snack”, then Fossyant‘s post was a valid one. It still is.

You contradicted yourself saying you eat healthy yet eating Fried fish in batter and pies as a snack you might as well eat lard as a snack.🤣

nobody, not nobody considers cup-a-soup as an alternative to actual soup. We all know that it's flavoured salty water. It's a drink and as Accy says, an alternative to having a brew.

You'd be surprised...

Bovril or miso for me if I want a savoury drink, but that's quite rare tbh.
