Rating: We Avoid
- 1 out of 5
Ingredient Score:
Rated at 1/5 green leaves, the Progresso Rich & Hearty Steak & Vegetables soup is a product our website advises consumers to avoid. This rating reflects the soup’s composition, which includes a range of non-organic ingredients, the use of GMOs, and the presence of added sugars and potentially harmful additives.
The soup is not made with organic ingredients, which is a significant factor in its low score. Additionally, the product lacks non-GMO verification, further impacting its rating negatively. The inclusion of sugar and citric acid, both considered added sugars, also detracts from the product’s overall healthfulness.
Our assessment identifies several ingredients of concern. The soup contains natural flavors and caramel color, which are considered potentially harmful additives. Modified food starch is another additive present in the soup, contributing to the product’s lower rating. Furthermore, the product includes maltodextrin, which is recognized as a known harmful additive, and soybean oil, which is considered a harmful oil due to its processing and potential health impacts.
The Progresso Rich & Hearty Steak & Vegetables soup’s score reflects its alignment with the goals of our website—to guide consumers towards cleaner food options. The ingredients listed, from non-organic sources to the presence of GMOs and various additives, position this product at the lowest end of our rating scale. Consumers seeking healthier, cleaner food choices are advised to consider alternative products that do not contain these elements. Our evaluation aims to simplify the selection process for those who prioritize food quality and healthfulness in a market saturated with options that may not meet these criteria.
