Have you ever had sweet potato soup? I haven't, although I do like putting sweet potatoes IN soups. well, I decided to be adventurous and give Imagine Natural Creations Organic Creamy Sweet Potato Soup a try. This soup is organic, all natural, vegetarian, plus dairy-, gluten- and preservative- free.

I poured some out into a pot, and saw a thick, rich, creamy orange soup. I heated this on the stove-top for a few minutes, and the soup got a little less thick. When it had cooled off some, it was time for the taste- test. It turned out that the soup wasn't as sweet as I thought it would be, but neither was it good. There wasn't much flavor and it didn't win me over to being a fan of sweet soups. I would definitely use Imagine Sweet Potato Soup as a puree in other dishes, but wouldn't drink it as a soup.

The ingredients list includes, filtered water, organic sweet potatoes, organic potatoes, organic rice syrup, organic carrots, sea salt, organic expeller pressed safflower oil and/ or sunflower oil and/ or canola oil, organic ginger.
A 32 ounce box of Imagine Natural Creations Organic Creamy Sweet Potato Soup cost me $3.49, and I don't consider it a total waste as I can use this in other ways ... just not as a soup. Imagine has a lot of "creative" varietis in their repertoire, so if you're tired of the "same old same old" then why not try their Acorn Squash & Mango, Corn & LemonGrass, Cuban Black Bean, or Creamy Sweet Pea Soups? I'll be honest - some of those flavors scare me a little ... but I'm still willing to give them a chance.
