One packet of soup was fine, but second packet soup was much darker than the other packet and contained pieces of fat. When poured into pot for heating the darker packet contained dark black pieces of unknown substance. Since I had emptied the clear packet first and then added the darker packet, I had to throw the soup away. Very poor inspection of the item and could have caused my family a grave illness. So unlike Members Mark products. Since the packaging obscured the contents, the bags of soup were undetectable until opening.

This soup was easy to prepare and came with great add ons. The actually soup was very nasty. It didn’t taste like onions or beef broth. All we could taste was vinegar. Tried adding more broth to lessen the vinegar taste but it was too terrible to eat.

I have always been pleased with Members Mark products. But, this soup was a great disappointment. It did not have the rich beef flavor but was a sour vinegar base with too many large onions. I do not recommend. I will not purchase again. I threw out 2nd package.

Very peppery, like clumps of pepper in your throat. It was quite greasy compared to most restaurant style French onion soups, and there is a very small amount of cheese and salad croutons (??) that go with the soups. Says it serves 4 but it barely served 3 people unless everyone is getting 1/3c of soup. Flavors are off, quantity is off and selection of add-ins is just weird (seriously who puts salad croutons in these? It should be larger pieces of crusted bread)

No idea why so many bad reviews. Maybe different suppliers. We thought the kit was great and have eaten a lot of french onion soups. A lot of nice and tender onions and not super salty. Love that the kit contains (2) 2 serving kits for a total of 4 servings. 2 bags of onion soup, 2 bags croutons and 2 bags of cheese.

This is not French onion soup. 4 servings? Don't think so! This is a watered down version. Skimped on the onions and cheese. Croutons were ok. I caramelized another onion and with a teaspoon of beef bullion and added to the soup. I would not purchase this again

French onion soup is my favorite food. I can make a great one. However, that is a time and energy consuming process that I can't do every week. This kit is perfect for a quick craving killer when you can't slave over the stove caramelizing onions on a Tuesday night. Warm the soup on the stove, put it in a crock, top with the croutons and cheese and bake it in the oven just a little bit.

This was the worst french onion soup that i have ever tasted! Anyone that considers this acceptable has obviously never had real french onion soup😡. We were looking forward to the soup, but we were extremely disappointed - never again. Member mark products are now suspect!

I never had the pleasure of tasting French onion soup until recently but you have to prepare it correctly I advise you to warm the broth on top of the stove pour it in a bowl put the bread crumbs then cheese and place it in the oven on boil to melt the cheese very lovely appetizer or even a meal 2 servings each pack enjoy

Not enough cheese to qualify this as genuine French Onion Soup. A few croutons do not take the place of a slice of French bread. Broth was watery with not enough flavoring. All in all. A pale imitation of what you'd expect if you ordered French Onion Soup in a restaurant.
