Tired of driving in the car, trying to balance a hot bowl of soup so you can alleviate that cough?
Progresso has a new line of chicken soup-flavored cough drops to take wherever you are — and they’re selling out fast.
In honor of National Soup Month, the company released its Soup Drops, available online. But it only took an hour for the drops to sell out, according to a spokesperson with the company. They will release more on Thursday of this week and next.
“For decades, Progresso Soup has brought you cozy comfort on chilly days or when you’re under the weather,” said MC Comings, VP, business unit director for Progresso at General Mills. “When you’re sick, nothing is truly more reassuring than chicken noodle soup. So, we thought, why stop at the soup bowl?
“We took the beloved flavors of our Progresso Chicken Noodle Soup and packed them into a fun, savory candy Soup Drop for a totally new way to enjoy the taste you love whenever and wherever you want.”

Progresso first dropped the ultra-condensed version of their soup on Thursday, Jan. 16. The candies taste like broth, vegetables, chicken, and noodles. Packs of 20 go for $2.49, plus 99 cents for shipping, according to the website.
Marketers unofficially designated January as National Soup Month. As a country, Americans consume more than 10 billion bowls of soup a year, according to Bellevue University.
