This soup was a complete disaster. I followed the recipe exactly and it turned out inedible. I'm really disappointed.

I'm not sure what I did wrong, but my soup turned out really watery. I think I might have added too much milk.

Overall, I thought this soup was just okay. It wasn't bad, but it wasn't anything special either.

This soup is really good, but it's a little too rich for my taste. I think I'll try making it with low-fat milk and cheese next time.

I followed the recipe exactly and my soup turned out too thick. I had to add some extra milk to thin it out.

This soup was a little bland for my taste. I added some extra salt and pepper and it was much better.
