Soup season is well underway, and while everyone has their favorite soups<\/a>, sometimes you gotta switch it up and go for a new one. That\u2019s where Proper Good and their brand new Cheeseburger Soup and Pepperoni Pizza Soup come in. Both tout that they are high in protein (10g for the Cheeseburger and 11g for the Pizza) and gluten free and come in neat microwaveable pouches\u2014something I can\u2019t say I\u2019ve seen before in the microwaveable soup game. Proper Good also donates one meal for every social media post in which they\u2019re tagged (their handle is @EatProperGood). So, that\u2019s nice! And you can find them nationwide in Walmart. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

But how do these new soups taste? Does pizza or cheeseburger work as a liquid? Let\u2019s find out.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Pros: <\/strong>Right away I\u2019m hit with Italian seasoning<\/a> and spices that take me to pizza. The flavors of oregano, paprika, and pepper are really strong\u2014unexpectedly strong for a grocery store soup. It\u2019s also got chunks of pepperoni<\/a> in it and they taste really, really great. My fear was that this would just taste like your average tomato soup<\/a> but it most certainly does not. You definitely get the pepperoni pizza experience from this soup.

Cons: <\/strong>There’s added sugar in this soup, and it was noticeable for the first few bites. And I do think that the spices are a little<\/em> bit overblown. While I found myself really enjoying them initially, the spices lingered a bit too long on the aftertaste. I found myself wishing that the soup was a bit thicker, too\u2014maybe it just needs more pepperoni chunks.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Pros: <\/strong>This soup takes virtually all of my \u201ccons\u201d from the pizza soup and does away with them. It is nice and thick, featuring big chunks of potato and beef, and while I still get hints of oregano and other spices, the seasoning level is much more muted with this soup. It\u2019s hearty and pleasant.\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Cons: <\/strong>While this a very good tasting soup that I\u2019d definitely consider picking up again, I don\u2019t necessarily get cheeseburger<\/em> vibes from it. Since it\u2019s labeled as cheeseburger<\/em> soup, I\u2019d be lying if I said I wasn\u2019t a little bit disappointed. I don\u2019t really get any cheese and the meat is not seasoned or prepared in a way that would remind you of eating a burger. Although it\u2019s good and I would still recommend it, it is not cheeseburger soup.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
