canned lentil soup

Serving counts vary by brand: many cans are labeled as about two servings per can, while some products (and at least one shopper review) treat an entire can as a single serving. Always check the can’s nutrition label to confirm the serving size for the specific product.

Reported protein per can ranges from about 12 grams up to 24 grams. Check the nutrition facts on the specific can for the exact amount.

Labels often highlight fiber content (e.g., calling the soup a good source of fiber) and may quantify vegetables per serving—examples include a stated half-cup of vegetables per serving or a percent of recommended daily vegetables (for example, 60% of daily vegetables). Review the product label for the exact fiber and vegetable claims.

Common labels and certifications include gluten-free, organic, vegan/plant-based, non-GMO, low sodium or low fat, cholesterol-free, kosher, and allergy notes such as peanut-free or statements that the product does not contain shellfish, egg, or fish. Look for certification marks and label details on the can for confirmation.

Common claims include no artificial sweeteners, no synthetic or artificial colors, no artificial flavors, no artificial preservatives, no high fructose corn syrup, and no hydrogenated oils. Labels also often include allergy information such as peanut-free or statements that the product does not contain shellfish, egg, or fish.

Most canned lentil soups are sold as a smooth or liquid soup, while some are labeled as chunkier or “with chunks” to indicate a more textured, hearty version.

Some listings carry labels like “Low Sodium” or “Light in Sodium”; one description notes “50 percent less sodium” than the regular version. Other products direct shoppers to the nutrition facts for exact sodium content—always check the label for precise sodium amounts.
