Thanks,
It seems like there is not any easy substitute for good old home cooking.

Yup, I've found that the Asian soups with the powdered flavor packets can be problematic. When you say "baked noodle," you mean like ramen? I would be extra careful about that. Some of those noodles (especially the cheapie ones) are fried, though they don't look or seem fried.
We recently discovered Maggi brand "Taste of Asia" Hot & Sour soup; it comes in a packet, but it's tasty and doesn't cause either of us problems. We usually add an egg white (the package directs a whole egg), as well as extra veggies and a touch of chili oil and sugar to it. If you can find it, might be worth a try. We buy it at Publix (southeastern USA). You might also like the McDougall "RightFoods" cup meals.

Personally, tomatoes are not safe for me, and HFCS is not safe for some others.

Really? That stuff has always made me ill, even before I had IBS. Nothing by Healthy Choice has ever sat well with me.
Not trying to start an argument at all, but there's some additive they put in their products that is not my friend!
Just another example of how different we all are, I guess.

I ate Lentil Soup most of my life but the last time I ate it which was last year I got "D", so I have been scared to try it again even though I am stable. It never gave me gas either, but this year I am in a different stage of my IBS so I dont know how I will react. I loved the stuff and I miss it.

Thanks for all the posts. The "baked noodles" are actually baked and not fried unlike 99% of similar products. They advertise 98% fat free (I wonder how much 100% equates to.) And then I found similar products with rice noodles (which seem to work a lot better with me than normal noodles, pasta, etc) But even with the rice noodle versions it must be the seasoning packet. Man, I would kill for a packaged or canned soup that is actually safe for us.

Which ones do you like? Are they all safe? The chili is okay too? 
Do you need to puree these?

Nope! No pureeing necessary. I just take four Beano before I eat it, as I do with any meal containing beans and/or veggies. I especially like the Fire Roasted Southwestern Vegetable, Lentil Vegetable, Minestrone, Pasta 3-Bean, and Black Bean Chilli. I need to try some of the other chilli varieties. I'm sure there are some I'm forgetting, but that's all I can think of right now. They're yummy! Some of the soups can be as high as 25-30% calories from fat, but just have some white bread or rice with the soup to bring that number down. The black bean chilli is especially low fat.

Yes, I know. I have a tough time with tomato sauce but I can eat slices of a regular tomato so I was just looking for a tomato soup that maybe was safe (without the HFCS). I haven't researched...maybe Amy's makes one. Just curious if anyone out there who tolerates tomatoes has found a safe tomato soup (perhaps in the general grocery store  ).
