The only difference was the fat content and sugar content. The regular kind had its calories from the sugars and the healthy one got its calories from the added fat. They DO make a low sodium version though.RPB wrote:How's the sodium compare?

They both had the same exact amount of calories but the "healthy choice" actually had 1.5 grams of FAT compared to the ZERO grams of fat from the regular soup!!! How is it healthier then? Because the "healthy choice" had a little bit less sugar in it (which they apparently made up for with fat).
I only get low sodium soups crackers etc (when I remember) ... blood pressure
Perhaps it was the "healthy fat" like a fish oil olive oil type which supposedly displaces the harmful fats when they start wrestling over a musical chair or something. (But I think someone just keeps bringing more chairs)
The musical chairs thing did work for high blood pressure "too much sodium" ... by consuming more calcium, potassium and less sodium I kept off blood pressure meds for about ten years, but finally had to start taking one ... which doctor said I may actually be able to quit again in a year or so. You have to be careful with Potassium/Sodium balance though . heart attacks/comas etc if you go too far in either direction
Also. The pizza I ate tonight had white sauce so I guess it doesn't count as my veggies for the day...
