The Original "It's Greek to me!" Gourmet Greek Style Egg Lemon Soup

Greek 7 May 2023
Greek 7 May 2023

As the old adage goes: "When life gives you lemons, make lemonade." Well apparently when life gave the Greeks lemons, they decided to make soup. And thank God they did, because this soup is actually not bad. Apparently it's the “traditional Greek family soup served by mothers and Yiá Yiá's to their children and grandchildren”, but it turns out you can just buy it at the store, no Yiá Yiás necessary! With a delightful mix of orzo, lemon, and an occasional fleck of chicken, this soup is the first one I've encountered that is somehow refreshing: definitely a summer soup. It's like chicken noodle soup and Sprite had a baby! At $3.54, it's a little steep for a canned soup, but I think it's worth every penny, and its far cheaper than hiring your own Yiá Yiá to make it for you. Plus it's only 250 calories! That's only 7 points on Weight Watchers! Grab a can today; you can thank me later.

P.S. Don't forget to check our guest review this week, written by longtime S!TII fan Zach Stiles! Verdict: 9.0/10
