(More customer reviews)GEFEN NOODLE SOUP comes in a styrofoam cup. Two packets, (one for chicken flavour, one for hard bread chips), come inside the container. Also included is a "spork"-like plastic spoon, in two pieces which can easily be attached together.
To make the soup, all you have to do is pour boiling water into the seemingly solid mass of noodles. The noodles will soften quickly, and all you need to do then is add as much of the flavour and bread-chip packets as you like. It is very tasty soup -- with the added bonus, (especially for kosher-eaters), that, although it has chicken "flavour", there is absolutely NO chicken in it, meaning it is, (according to Jewish dietary laws), "parev"...and can be eaten with either meat or dairy. So, even if you are "kosher observant", you can add milk or cream to this "chicken" soup, with no guilt qualms whatsoever, and taste of the delights of "cream of chicken soup", of which you maty have heard others speak with such delight and relish!
This product can also be microwaved. Directions for either the "kettle" or "microwave" method of preparation are printed right on the label!
If there is one thing that I find fault with about this soup, it is the salt content. The net weight, (dry, I believe), is 2.3 ounces -- though it will be more once you add water and/or milk. For this 2.3 ounces, it is listed on the label that you get ............................... 1197 mgs of salt (!) The salt flavour, however, is not overpowering, probably because of the other ingredients within. I also believe that most of the salt is in the flavour packet, as the ingredients for the flavour packet, (alone), list salt as the first ingredient, but the ingredents for the "noodle" part of the packet list "salt" as only the third ingredient, (but also list "mineral salt" as the fourth.)
There is SO much salt in this delicious soup, that, if you drink it hot enough and slowly enough, you can actually unclog your nostrils with it! A handy thing to be able to do, and a far less messy way to clear out your nostrils than using the "pot" method or other ways. However, the amount of salt is enormous.....and so I don't recommend drinking this soup more than once a week.
As with most foods today, it has its pluses and minuses. Be aware of the salt content, (be cautions), and the flavour. Enjoy!
