Hello. I've been lurking a long, long, time, and I thought I'd chime
in on something discussed a while back. (I'm VERY behind in my
emails!)

Health Valley is very much a nationally distributed brand of
"natural", or at least I know for certain that it is distributed all
over the Eastern USA. It's usually found in the "natural" or
"organic" section of your mainstream grocery store, or in
natural/health food stores.

Amy's Organic is another brand of "natural" soup that I have had good
luck with.

I don't care much for Rokeach or Manieschevitz (sp?) because they
often contain  hydrogenated oils, which are bad for you.
