Hormel Foods Corp. filed a lawsuit this week against Campbell Soup Co., alleging the company uses false advertising to suggest its new line of Chunky soups contain as much meet as stews.

Austin-based Hormel claims in the suit that Campbell's "Chunky Fully Loaded Beef Stew," for instance, does not contain enough meat to constitute a "stew," as defined by "industry standards." Camden, N.J.-based Campbell places the word "soup" on its labels. However, it does not do so prominently enough, argues Hormel, which makes Dinty More stews and other meat products. The word appears in the bottom right-hand corner of a can's label.

Hormel (NYSE: HRL) filed the suit, which also claims unfair competition, in federal court in Minneapolis. A Campbell spokesman declined to comment.

I don't and won't eat either one of them. My wife just a few days ago bought a case of Dinty Moore Stew. Looking at the label I saw what I thought was an unbelievable amount of sodium (salt). Out of curiosity I read the Morton Salt container. The stew had 3+ times the amount of salt per serving as pure salt. How'd they do that?
