Reading a Sweet Sue label

Three numbers do most of the work. Serving size tells you what the other numbers refer to: 1 cup for Chicken & Dumplings and broth, 2 oz for canned chicken, the whole pouch for the pouch. Servings per container tells you how far the can goes. Sodium is the number that differs most across the range.

The ingredient list runs from most to least by weight. In Chicken & Dumplings water and wheat flour come before the chicken, as they do in any dumpling dish. In the canned chicken breast, chicken is first and water second.

A label can change between production runs. The can in your hand is the final word, and the Contains line is the place to look for allergens.

Sweet Sue Boneless Chicken with Broth, 50 oz Can has the least: 270 mg in a serving of 2 oz (56 g). Sweet Sue Beef Broth, 14.5 oz Can has the most, 1,080 mg.
