This is the “super soup” that Argentina is preparing against the hunger crisis

After the President of Argentina, Javier Milei has decided to suspend the distribution of food In community centers, a university came to the rescue to produce thousands of parts of the call “super soup” to combat hunger and the food crisis the country is going through.

According to the rector of the National University of Quilmes in Argentina (UNQ) Alfredo Alonso, This product is intended “primarily for soup kitchens and schools. The idea is that people in need can count on this nutritionally high-quality food.

And there are many people who, with the economic crisis, find themselves in poverty and therefore depend on these centers to be able to feed themselves properly.

This is what the super soup brings.

As reported Deutsche Welle , The Argentine supersoup was developed by food engineering students after the social epidemic of 2001. which plunged the country into “political chaos and the worst economic crisis in its history.”

Now they have taken advantage of the formula to confront the current problem which they claim occurred after Milei suspend food delivery to community kitchens while an audit is carried out.

The rector of the UNQ, Alfredo Alonso, clarified that The Argentinean “high quality, low cost” supersoup contains:

• Meat.
• Rice.
• Chickpeas.
• Carrots.
• Potatoes.
• It contains no additives or preservatives.

“It is produced in four-litre cans. Each one is enough for 50 servings. he added. In addition, it can be stored for up to two years.

Alonso said that 156 cans have already been produced, or 7,800 servings of soup that “have a hierarchical nutritional value.” Thus, people can receive the necessary nutrients at a low cost.

For her part, Anahí Cuellar, director of the Food Supersopa manufacturing plant, told the local press that When they created Super Soup, they wanted to offer a product that would improve regional food conditions.

“Currently, and unlike in 2002, We find ourselves in an even worse situation of food insecurity, where 6 out of 10 Argentines live below the poverty line. In this context, the production of Supersopa directly responds to growing nutritional needs and represents a concrete expression of the University’s contribution to society.”
