Rating: We Avoid
- 1 out of 5
Ingredient Score:
Rated at 1/5 green leaves, the Progresso Reduced Sodium Roasted Chicken Noodle soup fails to meet the criteria for cleaner food options on our website. This rating reflects a product that is not organic and contains genetically modified (GMO) ingredients, added sugars, and potentially harmful additives.
The soup is not crafted from organic ingredients, a factor that immediately impacts its standing. The presence of GMOs further detracts from its score, as our standards prioritize non-GMO products. The inclusion of sugar and citric acid, both considered added sugars, is another reason for the deduction in the rating. The product also contains ingredients like natural flavor, flavor, and modified food starch, which are categorized as potentially harmful additives due to their ambiguous nature and potential health impacts. Maltodextrin, identified as a known harmful additive, significantly affects the product’s score due to its association with adverse health effects.
Each ingredient is scrutinized for its impact on health, with penalties assigned for those that fall short of our clean eating standards. The product’s overall composition does not align with the goal of offering cleaner, healthier food options. Consumers seeking foods without these undesirable elements may find this product unsuitable.
The 1/5 green leaves rating serves as a guide to inform consumers about the quality and healthfulness of the food products they choose. The Progresso Reduced Sodium Roasted Chicken Noodle soup, with its non-organic ingredients, GMOs, added sugars, and harmful additives, is not recommended for those looking to maintain a cleaner diet. Our assessment is designed to help consumers navigate the complex food market and make informed decisions about the products they consume. This product, unfortunately, does not support the mission of providing cleaner, healthier food alternatives.
