Lipton Soup Secrets Extra Noodle Soup Mix - 4.9oz/2pk

This is my favorite soup when I'm sick. I add an egg that has been stirred in a bowl at the end of cooking time.

The truth: I have never tried this product before. I actually heard a very old (from the 1940s) legit radio commercial for it because it was a product sponsor for a broadcast during the "golden age of radio" which is now featured in a show called "Those Were The Days" weekly on a local station (WDCB 90.9 FM in Chicago, or wdcb.org worldwide, Saturdays 1-5 pm CST). I thought, "Wonder if that's still around (the soup)..." Sure enough, it was. My whole family got sick and I stockpiled crackers and bought an array of soups, from Campbell's to Progresso to chicken and beef broth, to this Lipton's product. Now at the tail end of a virus, I am still favoring comforting soups but was pretty much making them for the kids first and only eating what they didn't want. So with me at the end of the line of recovery, I finally got to try this. Wowie! First of all, I would say that a packet covers two nice big mugfuls of soup, not 6 servings or whatever it suggests. (unless you just want a little appetizer size). I added salt (my taste/smell is still off and I craved the salt), and a few grinds of fresh black pepper, a slim pat of butter and I was good to go. The noodles are uncooked (unlike Campbell's soggy "Double Noodle") so they cook up in the five minutes' time after you bring water to a boil and are perfectly al dente. There are a lot of them too! I found this so supremely satisfying, I was actually growling to myself as I ate it. Maybe it is because I'm sick and nobody "mothers the mother," so this cup of goodness was as close as I was going to get to comforting, nourishing goodness that "makes it all better." It stinks to be sick! I was so pleasantly surprised, I am going to keep a couple of boxes in my pantry at all times! Lipton, from the 1940s to the 2020s, and beyond, you ROCK.

I really like this soup and it’s easy to make. And I can add more noodles.

My kids love this soup, they think it taste great and always ask for more. I love that it’s easy to make and inexpensive.

Love this soup when I am sick. Currently have COVID and it is one of the few things I can keep down. Just wish the sodium content was less.

I used to buy the chicken noodle soup regularly, it was the best soup ever , especially when having a cold. But since the recipe changed last year it doesn’t taste the same and the noodle feel cheap quality, almost fall apart in the soup .

I used to find the box of extra white meat chicken in the soup, what happen to that soup?

Maybe its nostalgic to me but I have to have this when I catch a cold. And soak the saltine crackers in it. It satisfies my soul. The only time I ignore the high sodium and msg.

I love to keep these on hand in fall and winter because it has so much flavor but is also great when you aren't feeling well. And they're much easier to store than canned soups. Plus you don't get the overly soggy noodles like the canned ones

Purchased this for my wife when she was sick. It’s good, but not quite the same as another brand from my youth.

When my lungs act up, or I'm not feeling well - this is my go-to for food. I lose my appetite very easily when I'm sick so I'm not so good about eating and keeping hydrated. Lipton Extra Noodle helps so much. The hot broth feels good on my throat, and the noodles are small and soft so it doesn't upset my stomach. And the taste is GREAT! I used to get the original Lipton Noodle Soup - but I always wanted more noodles in it so I'd add some egg noodles. This is way better than that! Lots of noodles, and still enough broth. Thanks, Lipton! (I'm actually typing up this review while my sickly self is eating the soup)

My papa used to make this when I was a little girl. Now that I'm older I make this for my kiddos when they're sick.

Used to love the soup, but on the most recent purchase, it was gross! Both my kids noticed the awful smell. Smelled fishy/rancid. Daughter said it tasted funny too. I did contact Lipton.

I remember this soup as a kid. I still drink it to this day when I don’t feel well. It still tastes great to me. I love the tiny noodles, although you could never have too many noodles in this soup!

This is my go-to when I’m not feeling well and need comfort food. A little salty but so tasty and heavy on the noodles, yum.

Quick and easy great for my kids. They make it on their own or I make it and add some veggies.

Taste like fish. I definitely would not recommend

This is a go-to soup for my family when someone isn't feeling well. It's absolutely delcious! I always use less water than it calls for to make it a bit more flavorful.

My go to when I’m not feeling good. Also my go to when I’m feeling great. It’s just versatile and not super salty. Sucks that it’s getting more expensive, but still my go to a couple times a week. Always recommend.

Do not recommend! Nasty!
