Sweet Sue Chicken & Dumplings, 14g Protein per Serving, Made from Scratch Recipe, Heat and Serve Meal, Shelf Stable Can, 24 oz

I like this product because it reminds me of the jars of chicken and noodles, we used to have when I was a child. That product is no longer available and I miss it, but this brings the warmth and goodness of that back for me. The noodles are obviously thicker and, as per the label, more dumpling like, but that memory returns. warm and comforting.

As a connoisseur of chicken and dumplings, I have determined that the Sweet Sue product is the finest on the market. There is an adequate supply of small white chicken cubes. The Dumplings are created such that when cooked for a short while in the provided soup, disintegrate slightly to form a thick and delicious broth. When removed from the can, the dumplings clump together but when heated regain their original rectangular shape. The Sweet Sue product is to my memory very near to what I recall as "home made:

My late wife made the best chicken %26 dumplings but since she is no longer with us this is the next best thing and I love them. Always try to keep a can on hand.

Let me start by saying I love Sweet Sue chicken and dumplings. with that said I'm very upset by the fact that the last five or so cans have had significantly less dumplings in them and mostly just broth. The first time it happened I thought it was a one off. You something happened and it was just filled wrong. But then it happened again and again. I used to feed 2 people with one can and now I'm lucky if I get enough for just one person. I'm not going to buying them for awhile.I give them 3 stars for the taste because that didn't change. If they continue to short the cans of dumplings I'm going to have to explore other brands.

I only received 15 cans of sweet sue chicken %26 dumplings. Three different shipping containers two delivered one pick up. If you are going to keep up with Amazon you need to get a whole lot better at it

Our family has been eating Sweet Sue since they were $1 per can (16oz). 25 years. The dumplings were always whole dumplings packed tightly in a thick solid base that turned into a thick, delicious-flavored gravy when heated. THESE ARE NOT THOSE SWEET SUE CHICKEN AND DUMPLINGS. What you get now, for 3 TIMES THE PRICE, is a can of broken up scraps of dumplings in basically flavorless chicken broth with tiny chunks of chicken pieces. IT'S HORRIBLE. There was NOT ONE whole dumpling in any of the cans that I purchased which matched how much flavor was in them. THE DUMPLINGS SHOWN ON THE CAN ARE THE DUMPLINGS OF THE PAST! Sweet Sue USE to have a very distinct flavor which it no longer has. It has no flavor at all now. Just bland chicken broth without much chicken flavor. And, it use to be in a thick gravy that you could easily pour over mashed potatoes and/or biscuits, which is what we always did, but it's yellow colored water now. Probably why they put food coloring in it. Pouring this inferior product over anything would just turn it into mush. Sweet Sue is nothing more than overly-expensive SOUP ... minus the flavor... minus the ingredients like carrots, onions, rice, etc...and minus the dumplings! If you want good chicken and dumpling soup, just go buy good chicken and dumpling soup and save your money. The only people who could possibly be enjoying this are people who never ate the original Sweet Sue's. THIS IS "COVID" SWEET SUE'S! The version big companies turned out during the pandemic saying that they couldn't survive unless they gave the public a cheaper, inferior product for more money but even though they were required to go back to their original product/price after the pandemic was over, some haven't and loyal customers are still (being gouged) paying the higher price for the pandemic product. Couldn't they have survived by trimming a few bucks off of multi-million dollar salaries and bonuses for a year? Anyway.... I tried the other top brand (Dinty Moore Chicken and Dumplings $3.78) and it is still very similar to, they taste delicious, they have whole dumplings and thick gravy and are my new go-to chicken and dumpling choice for piling over mashed potatoes or biscuits or even just eating from a bowl. Dinty Moore Chicken and Dumplings makes a fantastic quick and easy dinner when poured over Bob Evans Microwave Mashed Potatoes ($4 Family Size) and you can feed a family of 4 for under $8-$9. And, the mashed potatoes are fantastic, too. Just an FYI. But, I wouldn't recommend Sweet Sue's anymore.

The most awful bland taste. Nothing like it used to be. Like eating wet flour. Will make you gag. I'm so disappointed.

big metal tasting globs of dough with lots of tasteless little cubes of chicken Nothing like it used to be.

I was very disappointed with this particular selection for a chicken and dumplings meal. It is not a creamy, filling, or tasty meal. I opened the can to find tiny, uniform sized squares of what is supposed to be chicken white meat, waaaay too many dough chunks all stuck togther, and basically a runny water base. The "dumplings" seemed more like white, balled up bread ... It was gross!!

These cans were so bent in half (1of them), and nearly in half that I feel the seam is compromised and makes this item unsafe to eat! Very angry about this- we live more than an hour away!!
