Progresso is reviving its viral “soup you can suck on” candies after last year’s release sold out within minutes.
The brand’s Soup Drops — hard candy inspired by classic Progresso soups — are returning for a second year with the debut of the Progresso Soup Drops Variety Can. The new variety pack features three of Progresso’s most well-known flavors, according to an announcement Thursday from General Mills.
“After selling out in just minutes last January, the soup you can suck on now debuts the first-ever Progresso Soup Drops Variety Can, featuring three of Progresso’s most iconic soup flavors,” the announcement states.
