Progresso Light Clam Chowder says 1 point on the can, so for 2 servings (the whole can) it should be 2 points, right? Oh, ****, no! Put it in my calculator and it's 6 points!!!!! I am so angry right now for deceptive advertising.

Woah!

Well, first of all, Points don't always add up as 1+1 = 2, but rarely have I seen 1 point jump up to more than or 4 after adding another serving.

Six?!

Would you be able to do us a favor and post all the nutritional information?

Did a little sleuthing online:

If that's an old can, it might still say 1 point on it (as in the old points system), but it actually now (on their site) boasts 2 pointsplus for one serving.

Added to that, I put in the information for 2 servings, and it comes out to 5 pointsplus for the whole can. (4 Fat, 36 carbs, 8 fiber, 6 protein)

I hope that helps!

The info on the can is as follows:
For whole can:
Fat 5
Carb 40
Fiber 8
Protein 6

PP 6

Apparently this was an old can, but geez! I almost had a heart attack. Lesson learned, use your calculator and confirm!!!!

That is definitely a LOT to jump up, yes!

It's no clam chowder, but my go to soup for WW is Campbell's Select Harvest Light vegetable soup with pasta. 1pp per cup and pretty good!

I was cleaning out my cabinets the other day and I had a soup in there and I'm pretty sure that was the one! I'll have to check when I get home from work

Sure can be deceptive when you have more than one serving! Did the can say "1 point per serving" or did it say points plus? I have a couple lean cuisines in my freezer and they read "points plus" so I think manufacturers have updated their counts if they print the WW info.

If it's a blue diamond it's the new points plus system. The manufacturers have updated packaging, but not all grocery stores have rotated in the new product, especially for canned goods that have a longer shelf life.
