Amy's Organic Chunky Tomato Bisque Soup
By Supermarket Guru

As organic products continue to become more and more popular with today’s American shopper, companies like Amy’s are keeping up with the trend. Not only is this tasty soup USDA certified organic, but you also notice that where soups tend to be high in sodium, this one contains about half that of most brands. (Amy’s tomato soup contains 340mg of sodium per serving, other supermarket brands can contain as much as 760mg per serving.)
