This soup was too thick for my liking. I think I will add more water to it next time.

I followed the recipe exactly, but my soup turned out too salty. I think I will use less ham next time.

This soup was a bit bland for my taste. I added some extra salt and pepper, and it helped a little bit. I think next time I will add some more vegetables to it.
