Very good. - 1/3/10

If you leave out the cheese it would be good but with the cheese it's like wallpaper paste or cheese dip. Too thick to eat! - 10/2/11

This was a great alternative to my usual cheesy potato soup (I use about 2 lbs of velveeta). The fat free cheddar doesn't melt well, but it tastes ok. I did have to add some salt, it seemed a little bland without the salt. I loved the bacon bits added to it, though. I'll definitely make this again. - 8/30/09

I think this would be good adding some chicken. Has anyone done that? - 2/11/09

Loved this soup. Made it once as is...and shared with someone at the office. She made it rich and creamy with NO low-cal anything. For her son and friends...not for us women.
The low-cal way is great...my hubby ate it....with a little corn bread. - 1/19/08
