I don't despise it, although I don't use it very often. For me, onion
soup doesn't taste right without it, despite all of the umami flavors
in the beef broth and caramelized onions. The other thing that I've
got to have in the soup is a shake of pre-grated Kraft "parmesan"
cheese. It's the only use I have for the "green-box parm", and probably
is a result of having had mostly canned Campbell's onion soup when
I was young.

To my way of thinking, listing "autolyzed yeast extract" is like
listing "evaporated cane juice". Just call it sugar, for the
love of Mike.
