Intro
Panera Bread is a bakery-cafe fast casual restaurant chain that focuses on great tasting, wholesome food. They pride themselves in using high quality ingredients without artificial additives. The restaurant's headquarters are located in St. Louis, Missouri, and there are over 2,000 locations in the United States and Canada.
All of Panera's soups are made fresh at one location, and then frozen and shipped to their restaurants so they can have healthy ingredients without artificial additives. This method also ensures that their soups taste the same at all their locations. If you thought all their soups were made fresh daily at each bakery cafe, I'm sorry to disappoint you.
If you want the freshest tasting soup, find your favorite from their 2021 menu and make it in the comfort of your own home. You'll be so glad you did!
