It’s all about the cheese....and of course.... the salt. 

How could you grow up in These United States of America and NEVER have had French Onion soup? You don’t have to go to France....that’s just what they call it! 

 

I just got done reading how to make it.......I'll need to try that ASAP. It's basically a wet beefy oniony grilled cheese.

I would respectfully NOT call chili a soup; you are right, it's under the "Soup" on menus, however. 

Also, explain the draw of French Onion soup; I've never had it.

For starters it's a hearty dish. I like salt and if it's done properly there's some good flavor to it. Then there are croutons or some type of crusty bread in the soup which take on the flavor and give it some texture. Finally its topped with cheese. The type can vary, but I prefer gruyere. The cheese is then  baked or broiled so that it gets a bit of a char. It all mixes into a delicious concoction.

New England clam chowder. It has to be thick. The best canned I’ve had is Campbell’s Chunky.

 

NE* Clam Chowder by far.  We should have a separate thread for best places.

 

Every time I have it somewhere new my wife asks me for my rating.

My husband makes some terrific soups - some of my favorites that he makes are his chicken wing soup and stuffed banana pepper soup.

Out at a restaurant? French onion or she-crab soups. 

BTW, I've noticed men like soup a lot more than women... true?

Is cereal soup?

 

lol   is there more than one ingredient?  

 

If I go out to eat,  Chili is usually a side "dish".

 

But at home  - Chili to me is a meal because I usually have a very large bowl.

I'd put chilli on chips (fries to you guys) and nachos. 

 

I wouldn't dream of putting soup on either. That would be crazy talk.

 

In conclusion, I don't recognise chilli as a soup.

For the record, I don't consider chili soup either. I would call it more of a stew. If it's the consistency of soup it's probably pretty ***** chili anyway.

I enjoy French Onion, clam chowder, or a good crab or lobster bisque, but my absolute favorite is the fish chowder at Boston’s No Name restaurant on Fish Pier.

 

The fish is so fresh it’s literally from boat to bowl.

I suppose if gazpacho is soup, then cereal can also be considered soup.

French Onion

Chicken and Corn Chowder

Chili with no beans

 

For the discussion here I went with Chili as a soup although at home it is a meal.
