General Mills has a new line of soups from Progresso out on the market, as they have created the new Progresso Pitmaster flavors. This is an interesting lineup of flavors as they have gone above and beyond to make it so you have a soup with a ton of protein in it, so it feels like you're getting more of a meal out of a soup, while also giving them distinct flavors that feel like you're eating at a summer cookout. Depending on where you shop, you'll see they cost just a little extra than your average can of Progresso, which is kind of expected. This feels like a super nerdy food that needs to stay as it's something you can heat up quickly for a meal. We have more info about the flavors below as they're on store shelves now.
