Continental Cup-A-Soup make a satisfying snack whatever time of the day! Try Homestyle Chicken Noodle recipe! How we preserve and lock in flavor in our products is just as important as how we grow our vegetables in the first place. That can mean drying, freezing, boiling, or turning them into paste – whatever suits the Continental recipe they'll be making. Drying is one of the oldest ways to preserve food there is, going back thousands of years. It's simple, safe and helps keep the color, aroma and flavor of our ingredients for longer - naturally. We don't need to add any preservatives, and it protects the natural flavor.
