"the largest piece of vegetable is a green bean - not sure if that qualifies for chunky. oh pls. to my mind, all the organic goodness that may have been there is totally ruined by the extreme saltiness, reminiscent of the red and white label we all know. and i coulda had a few cans of that for the price of this. also by volume i woulda had a little more soup. i would also say about 20% is vegetables and 80% broth/juice.i feel i have wasted my money. big disappointment. addressing the effectiveness, i gave a 3 because it filled the empty hole - heh."
