Homemade, Soup, Please!

Soup. How often do you have canned soup? Last year? Last month? Last week? Yesterday? Well, here's why the last time us working on the blog ate soup was 2 years ago.

1. Most canned soups have BPA lined cans. BPA can have a range of side effects, from early onset puberty, reproductive abnormalities, obesity, insulin resistance and pre-cancerous changes.
2. Canned soup often has high sodium levels. Most canned soup has over 400mg of sodium per can. Since Americans are already having problems with sodium, canned soup is not the place to go.
3. GMO often is included in canned soup that contains corn, soy, sugar, or other additives that come from GMO plants. Most of these plants also have pesticides and herbicides.
