I know all the vegan soups I've ever tried are LOADED with sugar. They also are probably low on protein. I wondered why: if craving sugar is a sign of low protein...

Diet factors that can cause cravings

Although your brain can be a challenge to your willpower, there can be foods in your diet that trigger your longing for sugary foods. One dietary culprit is low protein intake. Because protein and fats slow the release of sugar into your bloodstream, when you don’t consume enough of them your blood sugar can rise and fall at an abnormal rate. The result? Your body craves quick energy from sugar.
