Do I have to buy these? I noticed I don't have an option - either I buy a dinner with the soup or go on my own.

I don't like them or want them. It's a rip off to the customer if they are forced to buy something they don't want.

Huh? You don't have to purchase these. I don't think any JC food is mandatory!

These are definitely not mandatory (although SuccessfulOne is right, none are mandatory). They count as your limited free foods. I hate them, too, and if I feel extra hungry I'll have something else instead.

You could probably use Cup a Soup if you wanted, although the sodium is a little high. I use low sodium V8 juice as soup. I heat it up and I'm good to go! You could probably also use low sodium chicken or vegetable boullion. But don't let them tell you that those soupitizers are mandatory. I agree...they are nasty tasting!

I make my own soupatizers, but they count as totally free as well. I am a cheapskate, so I use chicken broth, cabbage, onions, garlic , some tomatoes, spices and carrots to create a filling soup.

I have never bought them, consultant told me they are "extra" and not needed


Since starting JC Jan 2 2010

Oh man... I love the soupitizers!
Anyway, I'm sure that you don't have to purchase these. My JCC told me that if I didn't like them then I could volumize my dinner with a bunch of veggies.

I usually volumize lunch and dinner with lots of veggies, even on top of my lunch salad. As for the Soupitizers, my JCC said they are mainly used to help out if someone is having hunger issues.I don't use them at all, as the JC meals with the extra veggies are filling enough. JMO.

My girlfriend said they are not good, she had some but threw them out since she never ate them, so i never got to try them. Since im new and 'planned' to try hers i didnt buy them. But from what i hear i'll stick with what im doing.. which is adding more veggies. i LOVE broccoli so since its free i usually do a double portion of them for dinner, which helps fill me up, simce im on the 1700 calorie plan
