Rating: We Avoid
- 1 out of 5
Ingredient Score:
Rated at 1/5 green leaves, the Progresso Rich & Hearty Chicken Pot Pie Style with Dumplings is a product that falls dramatically short of the clean eating standards set forth by our website. This pre-packaged soup is not organic, contains genetically modified ingredients, and is laden with added sugars and potentially harmful additives.
The ingredient list for this product includes non-organic chicken broth, vegetables, and spaetzle dumplings, along with cooked white chicken meat. However, it is the presence of added sugars, such as sugar and citric acid, that contributes to its low score. The addition of natural flavors and modified food starch raises concerns due to their ambiguous nature and potential health implications. Maltodextrin, a known harmful additive, is also present and results in a significant deduction from the product’s score.
Furthermore, the use of oils such as safflower oil, soybean oil, and unspecified palm ingredients are considered detrimental within our rating system. These oils are often highly processed and may pose health risks when consumed regularly. The inclusion of non-GMO ingredients is another critical factor that this product does not meet, leading to additional deductions from its overall score.
The combination of these factors positions the Progresso Rich & Hearty Chicken Pot Pie Style with Dumplings at the lowest end of our rating scale. The product’s composition, with its use of additives and non-organic ingredients, steers it away from the cleaner food options we promote. It is clear that this product does not align with the health-conscious criteria we champion for a wholesome diet. Our assessment strongly advises against choosing this product for those seeking nourishing and clean food alternatives.
