Continental confirms change to chicken noodle soup recipe
Continental has confirmed it has changed the recipe for its popular chicken noodle soup. The admission comes after one customer noticed a change in flavour.
At first it appeared it was just the packaging that had been redesigned, but the company has explained it has "reformulated" all of its soup and sauce products.
"Continental has recently reformulated its soup and sauce products/portfolio to reduce/remove ingredients which contribute to industrial Trans fat originating from partially hydronated oils," Unilever, parent company to Continental, told a customer via email.

"Why did you change the beef stroganoff this one tastes nothing like the original in taste please bring back the original one," one wrote on the company's Facebook page.
