Soup You Can Suck On: A New Twist on Comfort Food

As someone who juggles a busy lifestyle—balancing family, work, and creative pursuits—cold and flu season often feels like a personal nemesis. But leave it to innovation to catch my attention.

Enter Progresso Soup Drops: “soup you can suck on.”

Yes, you read that right. Progresso has turned one of our favorite comfort foods into a convenient lozenge-like form. It’s a clever fusion of two things we lean on when we’re under the weather: the hearty nourishment of soup and the throat-soothing properties of drops. The idea of carrying chicken noodle “drops” in your pocket to combat scratchy throats is wild, but I want to at least try them!

What about you? Would you embrace soup in lozenge form, or does this innovation seem a bit too out-of-the-bowl?
