Vegetable Minestrone Soup, 16 OZ
What You Should Know
You'd find RAO'S Vegetable Minestrone in the soup aisle or your pantry as a grab-and-heat option for a busy weeknight — a chunky, homestyle-style minestrone that feels comforting and practical. The ingredient list reads like recognizable vegetables and pasta, suggesting a hearty, nostalgic texture of tender ditalini and softened vegetables. However, the presence of enriched pasta, corn starch and very high sodium points to industrial preparation and shelf-stable processing rather than a freshly made soup.
