1 00:00:01,000 --> 00:00:03,080 Speaker 1: The cooler weather is approaching and it's the time of 2 00:00:03,160 --> 00:00:06,160 Speaker 1: year when we start to swap our crispy summer salads 3 00:00:06,200 --> 00:00:09,320 Speaker 1: for warm, nurishing soups. So this week on the Nutrition 4 00:00:09,440 --> 00:00:12,280 Speaker 1: Couch podcast review, we take a look at two quick 5 00:00:12,360 --> 00:00:14,920 Speaker 1: and easy, pre made soup options that you can find 6 00:00:14,960 --> 00:00:18,760 Speaker 1: in the supermarkets. Hi, I'm Leanne Wood and I'm Suzie Burrow, 7 00:00:18,840 --> 00:00:21,520 Speaker 1: and it's two of Australia's leading dieticians who specialize in 8 00:00:21,600 --> 00:00:25,520 Speaker 1: evidence based nutrition. We renew the Nutrition Couch Product Review, 9 00:00:25,960 --> 00:00:28,520 Speaker 1: a weekly chat on new products and old favorites that 10 00:00:28,560 --> 00:00:32,160 Speaker 1: you can find in your local supermarket. So to kick yourself, Susie, 11 00:00:32,520 --> 00:00:34,519 Speaker 1: are you a soup lover or not? 12 00:00:35,000 --> 00:00:37,199 Speaker 2: I am a massive soup lover And you know the 13 00:00:37,240 --> 00:00:40,639 Speaker 2: soups I like mostly and I love going to America 14 00:00:40,840 --> 00:00:44,440 Speaker 2: eventually because when you go there they have so many soups. 15 00:00:44,520 --> 00:00:47,680 Speaker 2: You can get mushroom and this bean one and child. 16 00:00:47,840 --> 00:00:52,360 Speaker 2: I know, yes, lobsters, lobster bus room. And I love 17 00:00:52,400 --> 00:00:55,480 Speaker 2: in Hawaii. My friend Jamie, who always comes to Hawaii 18 00:00:55,560 --> 00:00:58,800 Speaker 2: with me, will no cheesecake factory. We love the soup 19 00:00:58,880 --> 00:01:01,920 Speaker 2: and half the sandwich. And you know, in Australia, we're 20 00:01:01,960 --> 00:01:03,800 Speaker 2: getting more options now, but I have to be honest, 21 00:01:03,800 --> 00:01:05,759 Speaker 2: I do tend to make most of mine. I love 22 00:01:05,760 --> 00:01:08,360 Speaker 2: a homemade soup. One of my favorites is one that 23 00:01:08,400 --> 00:01:10,399 Speaker 2: I found in the Colos magazine last year, which is 24 00:01:10,520 --> 00:01:14,960 Speaker 2: literally just bloody beans, tomato, pisada, leaks celery. It is 25 00:01:15,040 --> 00:01:17,480 Speaker 2: so delicious. I throw kale in at the end, and 26 00:01:17,520 --> 00:01:19,720 Speaker 2: if I leave it on the bench, Chris will eat 27 00:01:19,760 --> 00:01:23,120 Speaker 2: the whole thing, it is so young. So I do 28 00:01:23,200 --> 00:01:25,800 Speaker 2: have a couple of ones that I will buy, and indeed, 29 00:01:25,800 --> 00:01:28,720 Speaker 2: I've recently done a trolley on this because there's so 30 00:01:28,840 --> 00:01:30,680 Speaker 2: many in supermarket. And I think the good thing actually 31 00:01:30,720 --> 00:01:33,479 Speaker 2: Land is that there is so many more fresh pouches 32 00:01:33,600 --> 00:01:36,160 Speaker 2: and fresh ones now compared to the old days where 33 00:01:36,480 --> 00:01:39,280 Speaker 2: they did tend to be cup of soups or tin soups, which, 34 00:01:39,400 --> 00:01:42,639 Speaker 2: let's be honest, are often higher in sodium and higher 35 00:01:42,680 --> 00:01:46,360 Speaker 2: in additives. Whereas I couldn't believe really how many great 36 00:01:46,520 --> 00:01:49,600 Speaker 2: fresh ones there were in the little containers at very 37 00:01:49,600 --> 00:01:53,840 Speaker 2: reasonable prices, and also the pouches, which is a way 38 00:01:53,880 --> 00:01:57,840 Speaker 2: that manufacturers can make them without as many additives, things 39 00:01:57,880 --> 00:02:00,280 Speaker 2: like added salts and things to keep them fresh. And 40 00:02:00,360 --> 00:02:02,720 Speaker 2: I think the thing for me is it's not inexpensive 41 00:02:02,760 --> 00:02:05,280 Speaker 2: to make a batch of soup because if you are 42 00:02:05,320 --> 00:02:12,160 Speaker 2: adding leaks, celery, onion as the base, then things like celery, kale, spinach, 43 00:02:12,400 --> 00:02:15,200 Speaker 2: and you know, it adds up, and particularly if you 44 00:02:15,280 --> 00:02:17,480 Speaker 2: have the leggings are cheap, but the stocks are not. 45 00:02:17,639 --> 00:02:19,440 Speaker 2: If you get a no added salt stock, they can 46 00:02:19,480 --> 00:02:22,560 Speaker 2: be ten dollars per container. Now I guess we'd make 47 00:02:22,600 --> 00:02:25,040 Speaker 2: our own stock in an ideal world. So I find 48 00:02:25,040 --> 00:02:26,760 Speaker 2: some of my soups are up to twenty dollars worth 49 00:02:26,800 --> 00:02:28,959 Speaker 2: of ingredients, which you may or may not consume the 50 00:02:29,000 --> 00:02:31,440 Speaker 2: whole lot. Whereas if you can get a packet soup 51 00:02:31,480 --> 00:02:33,440 Speaker 2: like we're showing today for four or five dollars for 52 00:02:33,440 --> 00:02:35,399 Speaker 2: a couple of serves, it's hard to go past them 53 00:02:35,440 --> 00:02:37,560 Speaker 2: cost wise. So I think they can be a really 54 00:02:37,600 --> 00:02:40,600 Speaker 2: cost effective option too. And it's just options, as we said, 55 00:02:40,639 --> 00:02:44,000 Speaker 2: you know, generally speaking, the cup soups tend to be 56 00:02:44,040 --> 00:02:46,920 Speaker 2: the most processed and the highest in additives and particularly 57 00:02:46,960 --> 00:02:50,880 Speaker 2: salt and even flavor enhances like MSG. The tin ones 58 00:02:50,880 --> 00:02:52,720 Speaker 2: in general are pretty good, but again they have a 59 00:02:52,720 --> 00:02:56,440 Speaker 2: lot more additives, whereas my preference for my clients and 60 00:02:56,480 --> 00:03:00,680 Speaker 2: sharing today on the nutrition couch. Is those fresh pots outstanding. 61 00:03:00,720 --> 00:03:03,040 Speaker 2: You really can't fault them, and there's a huge number 62 00:03:03,040 --> 00:03:05,239 Speaker 2: of good ones. But the ones I thought we would 63 00:03:05,240 --> 00:03:08,960 Speaker 2: talk about today are a couple of the pouches because 64 00:03:10,200 --> 00:03:12,520 Speaker 2: they I guess you don't have to keep them cold, 65 00:03:12,600 --> 00:03:14,600 Speaker 2: they store for longer, and the pantry, you know, you 66 00:03:14,639 --> 00:03:18,680 Speaker 2: can travel with them. There's so many different ones. You know, 67 00:03:18,760 --> 00:03:21,360 Speaker 2: in the past we've talked about the plant protein range, 68 00:03:21,360 --> 00:03:24,239 Speaker 2: which we're fans of. But I chose two different ones 69 00:03:24,240 --> 00:03:28,160 Speaker 2: today to go through. One because I wanted to showcase 70 00:03:28,200 --> 00:03:30,240 Speaker 2: one of my favorites. So I wanted just to compare, 71 00:03:30,280 --> 00:03:33,160 Speaker 2: so full disclosure. But that's the process, isn't it. And 72 00:03:33,200 --> 00:03:34,840 Speaker 2: we go through we don't. We just sort of go 73 00:03:34,880 --> 00:03:36,640 Speaker 2: through and think what tkills they are fancy on the day, 74 00:03:36,680 --> 00:03:38,360 Speaker 2: and so these were a couple that sprang to mind, 75 00:03:38,360 --> 00:03:40,680 Speaker 2: but there's a million others. It was just I sort 76 00:03:40,680 --> 00:03:42,560 Speaker 2: of tried to pick like for like. I didn't want 77 00:03:42,600 --> 00:03:45,160 Speaker 2: to compare a pouch to a tin. So we've gone 78 00:03:45,160 --> 00:03:47,600 Speaker 2: for pouches just as the sort of preferential one. And 79 00:03:47,640 --> 00:03:49,520 Speaker 2: also Lee and I also found the fresh ones. There 80 00:03:49,560 --> 00:03:51,720 Speaker 2: were so many good ones. I couldn't really differentiate between 81 00:03:51,760 --> 00:03:54,560 Speaker 2: the brands. They were all pretty good, particularly the veggie bases, 82 00:03:54,600 --> 00:03:57,240 Speaker 2: so hence going for the pouches. So the first one 83 00:03:57,280 --> 00:04:01,800 Speaker 2: I've chosen is the hind Sea of the Day seven 84 00:04:01,920 --> 00:04:04,320 Speaker 2: veg with garden herbs, And as I said, the reason 85 00:04:04,360 --> 00:04:06,120 Speaker 2: I chose this was because it matched the ones the 86 00:04:06,160 --> 00:04:08,120 Speaker 2: other one I wanted to talk about. So this is 87 00:04:08,160 --> 00:04:10,720 Speaker 2: a four hundred and thirty gram packet, so quite hardy 88 00:04:10,840 --> 00:04:13,839 Speaker 2: four dollars, so two dollars per serve, very reasonable for meal. 89 00:04:14,280 --> 00:04:17,120 Speaker 2: A quick scan of the ingredients is pretty strong land 90 00:04:17,200 --> 00:04:19,960 Speaker 2: It's seventy two percent vegetables, and if we break that down, 91 00:04:19,960 --> 00:04:24,159 Speaker 2: it's tomato, pump and potato, green and red capsicum's, zucchini, carrot, 92 00:04:24,160 --> 00:04:26,520 Speaker 2: sweet potato. So a really nice mix because I think 93 00:04:26,520 --> 00:04:28,440 Speaker 2: one of the things that always screams out to me 94 00:04:28,520 --> 00:04:30,920 Speaker 2: with soup is if you look at the ingredients and 95 00:04:30,960 --> 00:04:33,839 Speaker 2: it's all potato, it's really not giving you the vegetable 96 00:04:33,839 --> 00:04:36,120 Speaker 2: bulk or the range of nutrients you would get from 97 00:04:36,160 --> 00:04:38,560 Speaker 2: brightly colored vegetables. So that sort of turns me off 98 00:04:38,560 --> 00:04:39,960 Speaker 2: a little bit when I see a lot of potato 99 00:04:40,400 --> 00:04:42,240 Speaker 2: water cream. So it does have a little bit of 100 00:04:42,240 --> 00:04:45,599 Speaker 2: cream to give it some flavor. Mace thickener. There's no 101 00:04:45,680 --> 00:04:47,719 Speaker 2: cause for concern with Maze is an additive. It's just 102 00:04:47,760 --> 00:04:52,440 Speaker 2: to give it some bulk herbs, including parsley, salt, brown sugar, 103 00:04:53,160 --> 00:04:59,160 Speaker 2: flavor enhances, the three six three five soy sauce, curry powder, spice. 104 00:04:59,400 --> 00:05:04,640 Speaker 2: So overall it's pretty clean, but it does have things 105 00:05:04,680 --> 00:05:08,000 Speaker 2: like sugar added, salt added, but flavor enhances, which we've 106 00:05:08,080 --> 00:05:09,760 Speaker 2: talked about before. I'm not the biggest fan of. 107 00:05:10,600 --> 00:05:12,000 Speaker 1: We have a look at nutritionals. 108 00:05:12,200 --> 00:05:14,520 Speaker 2: They're saying it's one serve per pack. I think that's 109 00:05:14,560 --> 00:05:16,640 Speaker 2: a big serve, Laan, and I would definitely make that 110 00:05:16,720 --> 00:05:18,240 Speaker 2: be two serves if it was me, I. 111 00:05:18,240 --> 00:05:21,200 Speaker 1: Could definitely eat that in one sef you reckon. 112 00:05:21,080 --> 00:05:23,000 Speaker 2: Okay, Yeah, I think they're quite heavy, and I tend 113 00:05:23,000 --> 00:05:24,880 Speaker 2: to use super as aside for clients. So I'll say, 114 00:05:24,920 --> 00:05:26,839 Speaker 2: have a sandwich or a wrap and a soup, so 115 00:05:26,880 --> 00:05:28,280 Speaker 2: I guess it's how you're having it. If you were 116 00:05:28,279 --> 00:05:30,240 Speaker 2: having this just with a slice of protein toast, it 117 00:05:30,279 --> 00:05:32,800 Speaker 2: could be a meal absolutely. So it is only one 118 00:05:32,839 --> 00:05:37,200 Speaker 2: hundred and eighty calories. There's an error on that nutritional label. 119 00:05:37,320 --> 00:05:39,520 Speaker 2: One hundred and eighty calories per serve or seven seven 120 00:05:39,560 --> 00:05:42,320 Speaker 2: five kilogels, so you're right, it's quite low. Overall, three 121 00:05:42,320 --> 00:05:45,960 Speaker 2: point nine grams of protein, three grams of fat, zero 122 00:05:45,960 --> 00:05:49,840 Speaker 2: point seven saturated, thirty three point one grams of carbohydrate, 123 00:05:49,920 --> 00:05:52,400 Speaker 2: so roughly equivalent to two slices of bread. Seven point 124 00:05:52,440 --> 00:05:55,599 Speaker 2: seven grams of sugars, which is pretty high. Oh sorry, 125 00:05:55,680 --> 00:05:58,200 Speaker 2: seven that's per served. Three point three grams of sugar 126 00:05:58,680 --> 00:06:02,839 Speaker 2: perur teen point two grams of sugars perserve, so quite high. 127 00:06:03,080 --> 00:06:06,159 Speaker 2: And nine hundred and eighty milligrams of sodium, which is 128 00:06:06,200 --> 00:06:07,120 Speaker 2: not insignificant. 129 00:06:07,160 --> 00:06:07,440 Speaker 1: Sort of. 130 00:06:08,000 --> 00:06:10,280 Speaker 2: We don't talk a lot about salt on the Nutrition 131 00:06:10,360 --> 00:06:16,120 Speaker 2: Couch podcast because I guess sodium is sort of down 132 00:06:16,160 --> 00:06:19,039 Speaker 2: our list of areas we like to chat about, but 133 00:06:19,120 --> 00:06:21,920 Speaker 2: it's not unimportant. You know, as a recommendation, you're trying 134 00:06:21,920 --> 00:06:24,360 Speaker 2: to have less than two thousand milligrams of sodium per day, 135 00:06:24,440 --> 00:06:27,839 Speaker 2: so this is almost half your recommended DAILA upper intake, 136 00:06:28,400 --> 00:06:30,960 Speaker 2: which you would argue Leand with the soup you get 137 00:06:30,960 --> 00:06:32,400 Speaker 2: a lot of potassium. It's good for us, so you're 138 00:06:32,400 --> 00:06:33,960 Speaker 2: going to get some salt. But this isn't a low 139 00:06:34,040 --> 00:06:36,599 Speaker 2: sodium soup by any means, but I don't like the 140 00:06:36,640 --> 00:06:39,800 Speaker 2: sugars on it fourteen grams of sugars perserve, and I 141 00:06:39,880 --> 00:06:41,800 Speaker 2: really don't like the flavoringhants are on it. 142 00:06:41,880 --> 00:06:42,880 Speaker 1: Yeah, the six throe five. 143 00:06:42,960 --> 00:06:45,800 Speaker 2: I haven't actually tried it, so it probably tastes pretty good, 144 00:06:46,279 --> 00:06:48,720 Speaker 2: but it certainly wouldn't be my I think there's much 145 00:06:48,800 --> 00:06:51,359 Speaker 2: better options out there without flavor andhancism. To be honest 146 00:06:51,400 --> 00:06:53,279 Speaker 2: with heines, there're a big company. I'm a disappointed they 147 00:06:53,279 --> 00:06:55,719 Speaker 2: shouldn't be using flavor enhancers in soup when there's many 148 00:06:55,760 --> 00:06:59,240 Speaker 2: other options they could use herb spices, et cetera. And 149 00:06:59,279 --> 00:07:01,040 Speaker 2: I think the protein a little bit low. Yes, it's 150 00:07:01,040 --> 00:07:04,400 Speaker 2: a vegetable soup. It's got too much added sugar. So 151 00:07:04,560 --> 00:07:05,920 Speaker 2: is it better than a big mac? 152 00:07:06,000 --> 00:07:06,440 Speaker 1: Of course? 153 00:07:06,960 --> 00:07:08,200 Speaker 2: Is it better than a cuppa soup? 154 00:07:08,240 --> 00:07:08,680 Speaker 1: Of course? 155 00:07:09,080 --> 00:07:11,560 Speaker 2: But is it the best pouch soup out there? No, no, 156 00:07:11,640 --> 00:07:12,000 Speaker 2: it is not. 157 00:07:12,320 --> 00:07:14,360 Speaker 1: And for those looking at the nutrition label where we're 158 00:07:14,400 --> 00:07:17,560 Speaker 1: saying the MSG added if you look under contains flavor 159 00:07:17,560 --> 00:07:19,920 Speaker 1: and hands is six three five. That's the added MSG 160 00:07:20,040 --> 00:07:23,440 Speaker 1: or the monocidium glutamate in that in that package soup. 161 00:07:23,880 --> 00:07:26,040 Speaker 1: So I think what the problem with this would be is. 162 00:07:26,040 --> 00:07:28,480 Speaker 1: People would look at that and think, okay, veggi soup great, 163 00:07:28,800 --> 00:07:31,040 Speaker 1: low calorie great, like you know, less than two hundred 164 00:07:31,080 --> 00:07:33,440 Speaker 1: calories for a meal, you think great. But the bulk 165 00:07:33,480 --> 00:07:35,880 Speaker 1: of that is just carbohydrate. So what do people put 166 00:07:35,920 --> 00:07:38,160 Speaker 1: with soup, Susie. They put bread, they put toast, or 167 00:07:38,200 --> 00:07:40,520 Speaker 1: they put a roll with carbohydrate. So you're getting a 168 00:07:40,600 --> 00:07:43,840 Speaker 1: massive whack of carbohydrate with this meal, very minimal fat, 169 00:07:43,960 --> 00:07:47,040 Speaker 1: very minimal proteins. You've got nothing there to balance out 170 00:07:47,040 --> 00:07:50,000 Speaker 1: the carbohydrate or slow down the digestion of the carbohydrate 171 00:07:50,040 --> 00:07:52,600 Speaker 1: in that as well. So I would probably I normally 172 00:07:52,680 --> 00:07:54,440 Speaker 1: like to use soupers and meal susy, But like you, 173 00:07:54,520 --> 00:07:56,760 Speaker 1: I would probably just do half of this, add some 174 00:07:56,800 --> 00:07:58,760 Speaker 1: protein in there, add a little bit of healthy fat 175 00:07:58,800 --> 00:08:00,480 Speaker 1: in there as well. So actually adding a little bit 176 00:08:00,520 --> 00:08:03,480 Speaker 1: of say chicken rest in there and adding I don't know, 177 00:08:03,560 --> 00:08:05,440 Speaker 1: it's another sort of fat maybe on the side or 178 00:08:05,440 --> 00:08:07,440 Speaker 1: something as well. Do you really try to balance it 179 00:08:07,440 --> 00:08:09,040 Speaker 1: out to make that a better meal. If not, you're 180 00:08:09,040 --> 00:08:11,400 Speaker 1: basically just eating a big bowl of carbohydrate. You I'd 181 00:08:11,480 --> 00:08:13,880 Speaker 1: toast the side of that even more carbohydrate. You're just 182 00:08:13,960 --> 00:08:16,520 Speaker 1: not going to feel very full for very long that's 183 00:08:16,520 --> 00:08:18,800 Speaker 1: probably the downside of something like this. Although it is 184 00:08:18,840 --> 00:08:20,720 Speaker 1: low calorie, there is a ton of veggies in there. 185 00:08:20,760 --> 00:08:23,240 Speaker 1: They're definitely bonuses in there. But I would probably like 186 00:08:23,280 --> 00:08:26,040 Speaker 1: to see that protein a lot higher and the fat 187 00:08:26,040 --> 00:08:27,720 Speaker 1: contwn a little bit higher as well, if I was 188 00:08:27,760 --> 00:08:29,840 Speaker 1: looking to actually balance this out as a proper meal. 189 00:08:30,080 --> 00:08:32,240 Speaker 2: And of course we are being fussy because this is 190 00:08:32,240 --> 00:08:34,200 Speaker 2: our product review segment. We're not coming here to say 191 00:08:34,240 --> 00:08:36,080 Speaker 2: souper is bad or veggie soup is bad. It's our 192 00:08:36,160 --> 00:08:38,439 Speaker 2: job on these podcasts to really break down what's going 193 00:08:38,480 --> 00:08:41,319 Speaker 2: on with supermarket products. And we're certainly leanne because we've 194 00:08:41,320 --> 00:08:44,080 Speaker 2: had a little bit of feedback from people saying online, 195 00:08:44,120 --> 00:08:47,320 Speaker 2: you're recommending homemade soup. Well, of course we recommend homemade soup, 196 00:08:47,960 --> 00:08:50,280 Speaker 2: but sometimes we need quick and easy options. So this 197 00:08:50,400 --> 00:08:52,880 Speaker 2: is really breaking down out of the ones that are available. 198 00:08:52,920 --> 00:08:55,520 Speaker 2: That's the reference point. We're only comparing these two products, 199 00:08:55,559 --> 00:08:57,960 Speaker 2: as opposed to saying across the board, you're better to 200 00:08:58,040 --> 00:09:00,800 Speaker 2: have homemade or non sort of package soup in general. 201 00:09:01,120 --> 00:09:03,679 Speaker 2: All right, So the second one that I wanted to 202 00:09:03,720 --> 00:09:06,840 Speaker 2: go through is actually one of my favorites. I don't 203 00:09:06,840 --> 00:09:09,160 Speaker 2: have a relationship with this company by any means. But 204 00:09:09,400 --> 00:09:11,440 Speaker 2: this is one of the pouchrips that I actually really 205 00:09:11,520 --> 00:09:15,600 Speaker 2: like myself and buy. It's the Lazupa Kale and Quinwa pouch. 206 00:09:15,720 --> 00:09:18,559 Speaker 2: Now la Zupa have several different varieties of soup. They 207 00:09:18,600 --> 00:09:22,000 Speaker 2: have a bowl, they have a cup of soup, and 208 00:09:22,040 --> 00:09:24,760 Speaker 2: they have the pouches. Now they're bowls and cup of 209 00:09:24,800 --> 00:09:27,360 Speaker 2: soup are not my favorite. The bowls are really really 210 00:09:27,440 --> 00:09:29,920 Speaker 2: high in sodium. So it's only the pouches that I like. 211 00:09:30,320 --> 00:09:32,439 Speaker 2: And I really like this flavory. And so it's five 212 00:09:32,520 --> 00:09:35,240 Speaker 2: hundred and forty grams that retails for five dollars. Definitely 213 00:09:35,280 --> 00:09:37,280 Speaker 2: I get two serves out of it. This one is 214 00:09:37,720 --> 00:09:40,280 Speaker 2: recommending two serves as opposed to the Heinzwe It does 215 00:09:40,360 --> 00:09:42,760 Speaker 2: recommend it to be one, which is slightly smaller. 216 00:09:43,400 --> 00:09:44,200 Speaker 1: So when Lehn, I. 217 00:09:44,240 --> 00:09:47,000 Speaker 2: Look at this ingredient list, it's just so beautiful. So 218 00:09:47,160 --> 00:09:52,720 Speaker 2: chicken stop fifty eight percent, which is water, chicken, carrot, onion, celery, salt, 219 00:09:53,200 --> 00:09:57,600 Speaker 2: then lentils, onions percent, corn, kale, brown rice, kinoa, herbs. 220 00:09:57,600 --> 00:09:57,840 Speaker 2: That's it. 221 00:09:58,040 --> 00:09:58,840 Speaker 1: Oh, I love it. 222 00:09:58,840 --> 00:10:01,720 Speaker 2: It is so clean, perfection, like it is so clean. 223 00:10:01,920 --> 00:10:04,560 Speaker 2: I actually don't know how they make it taste so good. 224 00:10:04,679 --> 00:10:06,800 Speaker 2: I think it's just an old school stock, which as 225 00:10:06,840 --> 00:10:09,200 Speaker 2: we know, is really flavorsome and delicious if you would 226 00:10:09,200 --> 00:10:12,240 Speaker 2: make it yourself at home. I love this taste. It's 227 00:10:12,280 --> 00:10:12,760 Speaker 2: so young. 228 00:10:13,000 --> 00:10:13,240 Speaker 1: Now. 229 00:10:13,600 --> 00:10:16,600 Speaker 2: Admittedly though, you wouldn't say it's a meal because when 230 00:10:16,600 --> 00:10:18,920 Speaker 2: we take a look at the nutritionals per serve, keep 231 00:10:18,960 --> 00:10:22,480 Speaker 2: in mind this two saves per pack. It's only looking 232 00:10:22,480 --> 00:10:24,720 Speaker 2: at it laughing. It's so low, less than one hundred 233 00:10:24,760 --> 00:10:27,920 Speaker 2: calories three hundred and ninety shuichilodels but leane. It's got 234 00:10:27,920 --> 00:10:31,720 Speaker 2: five grams of protein literally, no fat, two point nine 235 00:10:31,760 --> 00:10:35,720 Speaker 2: gram of sugars all naturally occurring, four grams of dietary fiber, 236 00:10:36,440 --> 00:10:39,280 Speaker 2: and seven hundred less than seven hundred milligrams of sodium. 237 00:10:39,440 --> 00:10:43,320 Speaker 2: So it's the downside. It's not a meal. It's really 238 00:10:43,360 --> 00:10:46,520 Speaker 2: a free vegetable rich addition. So you would have to 239 00:10:46,559 --> 00:10:48,440 Speaker 2: have if you were having this as a meal, you 240 00:10:48,480 --> 00:10:52,320 Speaker 2: would have to have, say, crackers with tuna or salmon 241 00:10:52,320 --> 00:10:55,200 Speaker 2: on top, or a slice of protein toast with it. 242 00:10:55,960 --> 00:10:58,600 Speaker 2: But in terms of quality of soup, this is the 243 00:10:58,640 --> 00:11:03,000 Speaker 2: most outstanding nutritional panel I reckon I've ever seen, and 244 00:11:03,040 --> 00:11:05,040 Speaker 2: it tastes good because some of them. So I saw 245 00:11:05,080 --> 00:11:08,560 Speaker 2: this one in coal. It was brocoli cauliflower soup and 246 00:11:08,640 --> 00:11:11,400 Speaker 2: I thought fantastic because I don't really like broccoli, but 247 00:11:11,400 --> 00:11:13,800 Speaker 2: it's good for us. And I thought, how fantastic a 248 00:11:13,880 --> 00:11:17,360 Speaker 2: broccoli coliflower soup with parmesan. But I couldn't eat it. 249 00:11:17,360 --> 00:11:19,000 Speaker 2: It wasn't tasting taste choice. 250 00:11:19,160 --> 00:11:20,880 Speaker 1: I actually think I had the exact same one. A 251 00:11:20,920 --> 00:11:22,960 Speaker 1: company sent me one, and I couldn't post about it 252 00:11:22,960 --> 00:11:24,760 Speaker 1: because it tasted awful as well, and I won't need 253 00:11:24,800 --> 00:11:25,439 Speaker 1: the bread. 254 00:11:25,600 --> 00:11:28,920 Speaker 2: And I wanted it to be so delicious and I thought, great, 255 00:11:29,000 --> 00:11:31,640 Speaker 2: I can eat some broccoli, and it was just so 256 00:11:31,720 --> 00:11:34,880 Speaker 2: that's the other thing. We need it to be tasting good. 257 00:11:35,040 --> 00:11:36,920 Speaker 1: Yeah, my one was it was plant based. It was 258 00:11:36,920 --> 00:11:38,719 Speaker 1: like broccoli, and for the cheese, it was like a 259 00:11:38,800 --> 00:11:41,400 Speaker 1: cheesy broccoli, but the cheesy was like c H e Z, 260 00:11:41,880 --> 00:11:43,960 Speaker 1: you know, like a vegan cheese. And they use nutritional, 261 00:11:44,200 --> 00:11:46,280 Speaker 1: nutritional yeast flakes, which I love when I'm a massive 262 00:11:46,320 --> 00:11:49,480 Speaker 1: fan of but oh the texture that tastes it was awful. 263 00:11:49,520 --> 00:11:51,080 Speaker 1: I couldn't do it. I was like, no, I can't 264 00:11:51,080 --> 00:11:53,240 Speaker 1: do it. So I'm awful. Veggie based soups, But you're right, 265 00:11:53,280 --> 00:11:55,400 Speaker 1: they have to they have to taste good. And this 266 00:11:55,400 --> 00:11:57,640 Speaker 1: this bass I think with the chicken stock and the 267 00:11:57,920 --> 00:12:00,600 Speaker 1: onion and the celery and the lentils and the corn, 268 00:12:00,800 --> 00:12:02,720 Speaker 1: I just think it's a perfect combination of veggies. So 269 00:12:02,760 --> 00:12:05,880 Speaker 1: this is a wonderful addition to tie you over between meals, 270 00:12:05,920 --> 00:12:08,160 Speaker 1: isn't it, particularly coming into the winter months, or. 271 00:12:08,120 --> 00:12:10,840 Speaker 2: To bulk up a meal. Yeah, to have with your lunch, 272 00:12:10,880 --> 00:12:13,760 Speaker 2: to just get some delicious veg cheese. And it's so 273 00:12:13,880 --> 00:12:15,520 Speaker 2: good this suit. You don't even have to add cheese 274 00:12:15,559 --> 00:12:18,000 Speaker 2: on the top. It's so nice. But the other thing is, 275 00:12:18,000 --> 00:12:20,480 Speaker 2: if you were to make this soup, if you first 276 00:12:20,480 --> 00:12:22,520 Speaker 2: of all made the chicken stock, you would have to 277 00:12:22,559 --> 00:12:25,120 Speaker 2: get a carcass obviously and have had the chicken or 278 00:12:25,480 --> 00:12:27,920 Speaker 2: pay for that. Now, a clean stock like that with 279 00:12:27,960 --> 00:12:29,480 Speaker 2: not much in it is going to cost six at 280 00:12:29,559 --> 00:12:33,600 Speaker 2: least eight dollars. Then if you had to buy kale celery, 281 00:12:33,880 --> 00:12:36,560 Speaker 2: your soup's going to be quite pricey. So I think 282 00:12:36,559 --> 00:12:39,720 Speaker 2: for five dollars for two serves, from a cost effective perspective, 283 00:12:39,720 --> 00:12:41,800 Speaker 2: particularly if you're only cooking for one or two people, 284 00:12:42,160 --> 00:12:45,520 Speaker 2: this is an outstanding product now in that pouch range, 285 00:12:45,559 --> 00:12:49,199 Speaker 2: there's several they're all pretty good. There's a chicken, one pumpkin, tomato. 286 00:12:49,400 --> 00:12:52,160 Speaker 2: They're all pretty good in terms of their nutrition. The 287 00:12:52,400 --> 00:12:56,079 Speaker 2: ingredient listare all clean. But I just really like this flavor, 288 00:12:56,240 --> 00:12:59,320 Speaker 2: so see what you think. But it absolutely wins my 289 00:12:59,360 --> 00:13:02,560 Speaker 2: soup every time. I think it's outstanding. The only downside 290 00:13:02,600 --> 00:13:04,240 Speaker 2: is it's very low calorie, so you would need a 291 00:13:04,240 --> 00:13:05,760 Speaker 2: bit more to bock it up as a meal. But 292 00:13:05,800 --> 00:13:07,640 Speaker 2: if you got home late from work you weren't very 293 00:13:07,720 --> 00:13:09,960 Speaker 2: hungry and just wanted a quick soup, keeping these and 294 00:13:10,120 --> 00:13:11,839 Speaker 2: lee and you don't even have to refrigerate them and 295 00:13:11,840 --> 00:13:13,680 Speaker 2: again in the cupboard, so handy. 296 00:13:13,800 --> 00:13:16,120 Speaker 1: Yeah, that's perfect. Or you know, if you've over indulged 297 00:13:16,120 --> 00:13:18,360 Speaker 1: in a few too many Easter eggs, there might be 298 00:13:18,360 --> 00:13:21,400 Speaker 1: a lovely any alternative with a little bit of protein 299 00:13:21,440 --> 00:13:23,240 Speaker 1: on the side or added into vulcan up, it could 300 00:13:23,280 --> 00:13:24,360 Speaker 1: be a lovely alternative. 301 00:13:24,840 --> 00:13:26,400 Speaker 2: And we will say, you know, if we ever do 302 00:13:27,640 --> 00:13:30,520 Speaker 2: sponsored product reviews, we will very clearly say none of 303 00:13:30,559 --> 00:13:32,960 Speaker 2: these are sponsored or we don't have associations. If we do, 304 00:13:33,000 --> 00:13:35,280 Speaker 2: we will always say it, I don't have a sup association. 305 00:13:35,400 --> 00:13:37,920 Speaker 2: It's just a product I've liked for several years that 306 00:13:38,000 --> 00:13:40,000 Speaker 2: we wanted to highlight. But you know, as we said, 307 00:13:40,000 --> 00:13:42,080 Speaker 2: in general, you're not going to go wrong with any 308 00:13:42,120 --> 00:13:44,440 Speaker 2: kind of veggie based soup out there. Pouches are good. 309 00:13:44,640 --> 00:13:46,280 Speaker 2: Just to a quick scan though, and try and avoid 310 00:13:46,320 --> 00:13:48,920 Speaker 2: the ones with added sugars and things like flavor enhancers 311 00:13:48,920 --> 00:13:51,760 Speaker 2: where you can the higher the vegetable content the better, 312 00:13:52,080 --> 00:13:54,160 Speaker 2: The higher the fiber and protein the better, and the 313 00:13:54,160 --> 00:13:56,040 Speaker 2: lower the sodium and you'll be on the right track. 314 00:13:56,120 --> 00:13:58,360 Speaker 2: So if we've missed any soups, we'd love to see 315 00:13:58,760 --> 00:14:01,920 Speaker 2: ones that you also enjoy. As I said previously, we've 316 00:14:01,920 --> 00:14:04,079 Speaker 2: done a plant protein one which we also very much 317 00:14:04,200 --> 00:14:06,360 Speaker 2: like that that's more of a meal. And yet any 318 00:14:06,400 --> 00:14:09,400 Speaker 2: of those fresh ones in supermarkets, the woolies, the coals, 319 00:14:09,480 --> 00:14:13,360 Speaker 2: the darrakai, are all very strong nutritionally with a really 320 00:14:13,400 --> 00:14:15,800 Speaker 2: high veggie content. So the more suit we have, the better. 321 00:14:15,800 --> 00:14:17,840 Speaker 2: There's really strong research to show that if you have 322 00:14:17,880 --> 00:14:20,200 Speaker 2: a bowl of veggie based soup before a meal, it 323 00:14:20,240 --> 00:14:22,520 Speaker 2: can reduce calorie intake by as much as one hundred 324 00:14:22,520 --> 00:14:24,880 Speaker 2: calories per meal just getting that bulk in your diet. 325 00:14:25,240 --> 00:14:27,160 Speaker 2: So I'm a massive fan of soup and I think 326 00:14:27,800 --> 00:14:30,360 Speaker 2: enjoy more soup over the next few months and your 327 00:14:30,360 --> 00:14:32,120 Speaker 2: body and your nutrition will benefit of. 328 00:14:32,240 --> 00:14:34,040 Speaker 1: It, all right, Suzzy. So that brings us to the 329 00:14:34,120 --> 00:14:36,840 Speaker 1: end of the Nutrition Couch product review for another week. 330 00:14:37,000 --> 00:14:39,520 Speaker 1: We would love if you guys to subscribe to the podcast. 331 00:14:39,600 --> 00:14:42,840 Speaker 1: That way, we automatically downloaded and delivered into your inbox 332 00:14:42,880 --> 00:14:45,680 Speaker 1: every Sunday and Wednesday for the product reviews as well. 333 00:14:45,800 --> 00:14:48,360 Speaker 1: Please leave us some feedback, asks, your questions on our 334 00:14:48,360 --> 00:14:51,640 Speaker 1: Instagram and Facebook pages.
