Tue Jan 13 2009There was a time I didn't used to like Progresso, but I seen a commercial on TV, and the soup looked really good, and I decided to give it another try. It was pretty good. I really like the chicken noodle and the beef and russet potato soups.

Sun Dec 07 2008I've never really thought Progresso was all that great. I mean their chicken noodle I find to be better than Campbell's but nothing I would write home about. I however am a huge fan of New England Clam Chowder, which is hit or miss in restaurants. I had tried a few canned brands and couldn''t get past the first bite. I reluctantly thought I would try progresso when I saw it in the grocery store this evening, not expecting to be impressed. Once I cooked and tasted it I was quite surprised! It was indeed the best canned Clam Chowder I have tried and rivaled a few restaurants I had ordered it in. All in all I think Progresso normally doesn't deliver the bang for the buck, but they have won me as a fan for their New England Clam Chowder.

Tue Oct 14 2008I have been on a soup kick lately, and i just tried some of campbells select harvest soups. Then I tried the progresso light chicken noodle. Way more flavorful and tasty than any of the campbells soups i have tried

Fri Jan 18 2008I've alway's been a fan of Campbell's Tomato Soup. I've eaten it for years. The other day at Wally World, I happend to stop in the soup aisle to stock up (I've basicly been free basing the stuff because of the freezing weather we've been having lately). While there, I noticed that the Progresso Line made their own version of tomato soup. I also noticed it was a little pricy, but since it was already made up (non condensed), I figured "what the hell", I'd give it a try. The end result.......AMAZING! This is simply the best tomato soup I've ever had, bar none! The soup has the perfect texture, thickness, and blend of spices to it. After finishing my soup, I felt like a shmuck for not trying this soup before. Campbell's Tomato soup is almost laughable when compared to Progresso Tomato Basil Soup. The difference is like night and day. If your a fan of tomato soup, Progresso Tomato Basil Soup is a MUST! Try it for yourself, and you'll agree!!- B.A.R.

Wed Feb 07 2007I've tried several varieties & enjoyed them all- lentil, chicken noodle, beef, vegetable, chowder. So far I've been pleased with the amount of veggies & meat. The noodles are firm and don't taste like paste. The beef and chicken have been good also. Doesn't taste like a tin can. I will agree that Progresso got really proud of its soups because the price got a little tooo high...I've been seeing it on sale lately so I've stocked up on my faves.

Fri Mar 03 2006A quality product. . .but the price is starting to get too high. . .love the clam chowder on a winter night- but remember to add a little red pepper.

Sun Sep 04 2005I really like Progresso. They are pretty good and decently healthy. the only problem is the high-sodium(about 25-50% DV per cup) which is absolutely ridiculous, which is why Progresso loses a star from me.

Tue Apr 12 2005I think they're getting kickbacks from cardiologists with all the sodium in each can

Fri Nov 07 2003Stick with the chicken - their beef soups often taste off

Tue Mar 25 2003Hubby loves it, but some of the varieties give him majorly bad gas!

Thu Nov 07 2002For what they charge, you should be filled up for the day, but it's totally the opposite. Campbell's Chunky will always be light years ahead of Progreso. Sorry Progresso-heads.

Sat Oct 19 2002As a fiftytwo year old woman who prefers the comfortable simplicity of Maryjanes, I find your recent commercial offensive. Am I an immature out-of-touch socially inept woman? I don't think so. Am I concerned with the peer pressure of a co-worker who advises me to grow up? Hardly. I have spent most of my adult life (having been a product of the good-girl 5o's) learning to be my own person and stand up for my own choices. One of thoes choices, minor as it may seem, is to wear Maryjanes, whether others do or not, as this simple little footwear goes in and out of style. Thank you for the opportunity share my feelings re: that irritating commercial.

Sat Sep 07 2002Light and flavorful. Doesn't taste like Campbell's hearty dog food.

Fri Jun 14 2002Their chicken and vegetable soups aren't anything great, but "creamy tomato" is excellent. Much better than the condensed red liquid play-doh made by Campbell's.

Wed Feb 13 2002i tried a couple of their soups, and they are nothing like the commercials say. sure, they have big chunks, but if there's only 2 potato chunks in the whole can of potato soup, they better be some really big chunks! they taste ok (the ones that i've had) but are definitely not worth the price. after i ate my bowl of soup, i had to go eat a sandwich just to feel like i had eaten something.....and i don't eat that much!

Fri Feb 08 2002I'm not one to go crazy for soup, but I do love Progreeso's pasta and bean soup. It's delicious, filling, and healthy.

Mon Feb 04 2002The commercials have the nerve to put down campbell's , well at least campbell's has FLAVOR! Progresso tastes really bland and the price is absolutely ridiculous!

Tue Jan 22 2002My favorite canned soup. A little on the expensive side (about $3 per can?), but this soup is a meal in itself. My favorites are the chicken noodle (seems to have more meat than the chicken and vegetables), and the corn chowder.

Tue Jan 22 2002It's an ok soup, but their chicken has a ton of fat in it, and the broth is very very dull.
