Though it might vary for each individual, I generally err on the side of caution and skip the soup while fasting.

While fasting, it's generally recommended to consume only water or other non-caloric beverages to maintain the benefits of fasting. Sipping on French onion soup, which typically contains calories from ingredients like broth, onions, and cheese, would break the fast and disrupt the fasting state. It's best to enjoy French onion soup during your eating window rather than while fasting.
