French Onion Soup Page

I have been avoiding trying the French Onion Soup at Applebee’s for years.  I had heard that their version is a “diet” version, using fat free cheese, among other things.  I figured it would be horrible.  So, my mission here was to balance out my blog a bit, and bring the average down.  The time had come to sample this monstrosity.  What would the rating be, 2.0?  1.0?  I laughed maniacally, as I walked in.  I was shocked to learn that they actually have two versions of the soup: regular, and diet.  That was a surprise.  So, I ordered both.  See below for my review of the diet version.  The regular version was at least as good as other chain restaurant versions.  The cheese was a decent swiss, and the broth was tasty.  It could have used more cheese, however.
