 Easy, delicious lunch! November 14, 2009
Brenda Goldfine (Duluth, MN, USA)
I've used Subscribe & Save for many products, but this is my favorite! Add hot water, then let it sit for 5 minutes before eating---easy! The soup is thick and flavorful, with bits of onion, carrot, and celery (the label also lists potatos, but I've never noticed them). I've always had ham in my split pea soup, but don't even miss it in this.
Comparing the Nile Spice split pea with a brand name can of split pea w/ham & bacon soup from my cupboard, per serving: the sodium content is lower in the Nile Spice soup (600 mg vs. 850 mg), and it has more fiber (8 g vs. 5 g) and protein (13 g vs. 10 g). Nile Spice is 200 calories, the brand name serving has 180.
Overall, this is big bang for the buck. I have it at least once a week for lunch at work, and with a piece of fruit, it's the perfect amount to hold me til late afternoon.
Oh, this is GOOD! November 1, 2009
J. Arena (Williamsburg, VA)
I have always loved pea soup -- home made, of course, being the best. But, if you have no time to get out the pots and pans and work over a hot stove for hours, Nile Spice Split Pea Soup is a fine substitute. It might not be Grandma's soup, but I consider it a big notch above the canned pea soup, and it's easy to tote around and makes an (almost) instant lunch at work. The trick is to let it sit for the recommended five minutes, or more. The flavor and texture are excellent. If you prefer a touch more spice, add pepper to taste.
Stock up, and you'll never be without a comforting, nutritious bowl of thick soup! Yummm!
Soft soup, not chunky and satisfying July 26, 2009
CaliforniaZainab (Los Angeles, CA, USA)
Not as spicy as some of the other flavors. Creamy. Not chunky = less filling. Great with a slice of bread. Since this flavor tasted less spicy, I'm more likely to eat it if I'm feeling sick.

Came on time, good packaging, LOVE this soup with a little salt/pepper/garlic powder. Great source of high protein / low fat.
 Thick mashed potato-like texture April 20, 2009
Rennie (San Francisco, CA)
I was surprised to see the finished (hydrated product). It's thick and textured like mashed potatoes. Not that I'm complaining - mashed potatoes are a real comfort food to me. It's just much less like soup than I had anticipated. It does have a smokey hammy flavor, but I seriously doubt they put actual ham in it. It's pretty good. Again, a little salty, (25% of your rdv for sodium) but tasty.
