CAMDEN, N.J. – To support healthcare operators in communities with a range of dietary requirements, Campbell’s Foodservice has developed three Campbell’s® Signature Reduced Sodium soups. Ready-to-eat soups with less sodium are particularly important to operators in this segment as they serve patients and residents who follow special diets—38% in senior living, 41% in hospitals and 44% in long-term care.1
Low in fat, saturated fat and cholesterol, these carefully crafted soups contain 390mg of sodium per serving* and accommodate vegan, vegetarian and gluten-free diets:
- Campbell’s® Signature Reduced Sodium Chicken Noodle: White-meat chicken, egg noodles, diced vegetables, and a blend of herbs and spices simmer in a home-style chicken stock.
- Campbell’s® Signature Reduced Sodium Tomato Basil: This vegetarian offering is full of pureed and diced tomatoes, fresh cream, chopped basil and roasted garlic, which are slowly simmered with a variety of spices.
- Campbell’s® Signature Reduced Sodium Vegan Vegetable: Great northern beans and a variety of vegetables simmer in a broth of pureed tomatoes seasoned with herbs and spices and finished with a touch of balsamic and basil.
“To save time and labor, healthcare operators need convenient, nutritious alternatives to scratch-made menu items,” Campbell Soup Company Director of R&D Alan Slesinski said. “In this new product line, we’ve cut back on sodium without sacrificing taste or quality. With familiar and well-loved flavors, Campbell’s® Signature Reduced Sodium soups will delight patients, residents and guests, standing alone or as side dishes.”
Operators can contact a Campbell’s Foodservice broker to learn more about these soups.
