This is the worst soup I've ever had. It was so sour and spicy that I couldn't even finish it.

I followed the recipe exactly and the soup turned out terrible. It was way too spicy and the broth was very bland.

This soup was just okay. I found it to be a bit bland and the vegetables were overcooked.

I'm not a huge fan of hot and sour soup, but this recipe was pretty good. The flavors were well-balanced and the soup wasn't too spicy.

This soup was a bit too sour for my taste, but I still enjoyed it. I think next time I'll use less vinegar.

This soup was easy to make and tasted great. I used cremini mushrooms and baby bok choy and the flavors were amazing.
