hearty soupDec 07, 2010
By Angela Evans
This is a good soup -- there is no doubt. The corn, carrots and potatoes are plentiful (no skimping on ingredients in the cans I've tried). Together, the ingredients make a thick and hearty soup that is perfect for a cold winter day. I did not feel the need to add salt -- the corn is not bland in flavor and the soup already has a lot of sodium. Moreover, I felt no need to add crackers. The soup can hold its own.
Some posters have noted that this soup has a high level of fat. It does -- 13g per one cup serving. Fat, of course, is not bad in moderation. In my quest for the perfect corn soup, however, I have found an alternative option. It is worth noting here for those who may have particular dietary considerations. Imagine foods makes an organic sweet corn soup that has 3g of fat per 1 cup serving. The soup comes in a boxed container and is just a corn base. There are no special flavorings. As a base, it is a good corn soup but when you add several cups of frozen corn kernels (and cooked potatoes if you have the time and desire), you can have a soup just as hearty and delicious as Wolfgang Pucks but with less fat and calories. This option does require about five minutes more of your time (if only adding frozen corn). Wolfgang Puck's soup is quick -- in two minutes you have a steaming bowl of great corn soup and you don't have to wait for kernels to thaw.
If you are not looking closely at fat (or eat fat it in moderation) and want something quick, this soup is great. If you are looking for a healthy alternative, I would take a little more time and build a hearty soup using the organic sweet corn soup from Imagine.

 Best corn chowder soup ever!Jan 12, 2010
By Chloe Fitz
"Chloe"
If you are tired of eating soup that tastes like it has been in a can for years, continue eating your Campbell's and Progresso soups. Wolfgang Puck's soup is outstanding, the best you can get out of a can. His corn chowder is the best corn chowder I've ever eaten. Fat is flavor, so if you want a delicious soup, get this one.

The BestFeb 17, 2008
By Nancy
"Lady of the Lake"
Yes, it's high in fat - it's also the best canned soup I've ever had. I like the seasonings in all the Wolfgang Puck soups I've tried so far, but the organic corn chowder is my favorite. The corn is plump and sweet, and the carrots and potatoes make it hearty meal in itself.

 44% DV saturated fat PER SERVINGMay 07, 2006
By Phillip Roncoroni
"goodcowfilms.com"
EDIT: At the time of this review in 2006, Amazon wasn't listing nutritional information on Grocery item pages.
--
First of all, it's great that Amazon is stocking food in bulk, but they really do need to include nutritional information on every item page.
Looking at the ingredients here, I saw that this soup contained "heavy whipped cream." So obviously, there was going to be a fair amount of fat in here. But, going by the tomato basil flavor, which also has whipped cream, I didn't think it would be *that* bad. The tomato basil is about 20% DV per serving.
I ordered this soup, only to find out that it has 44% DV saturated fat PER SERVING, or 88% per can. Ridiculous.
The Wolfgang Puck customer service E-Mail contact form also wouldn't give me the nutritional information before I ordered this item at Amazon because:
"Thank you for your e-mail. Unfortunately, the only nutritional information
available is that which is on the individual can. Sorry."
Now I'm sure the soup is delicious, just like all the other Wolfgang Puck soups... but that fat content is horrendous.
