[QUOTE="SBSVC, post: 495081, member: 136"]Fid, that's one of the reasons that I said "people in the US" called them that! I personally am not a fan of onions, and I have never had (or even made) French onion soup - although I have watched others eat it many times. Based on what I've seen, I can understand your consternation regarding getting the cheese out of these bowls. Apparently, they're still selling these things new - and in many places - as "French onion soup bowls' and "French onion soup crocks": [ATTACH=full]163363[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=full]163364[/ATTACH] We had a Cronin set of 12, like these, at our summer home, back in the 1960's: [ATTACH=full]163365[/ATTACH] My daughter actually still has them.[/QUOTE]
