Soup (liquids) are generally sold in fluid oz, not lb.

How many quart sized containers are 2 lb?

On average a serving is 12 oz, so that makes 3. But it really depends on the bowl. Some hold 10 oz and some hold 14.

A typical plastic bowl is 12 oz and a 2lb is 32 oz. Were a family of five adults Kah and it is enough for all us and two more bowls Id say 6.

If you add noodles, veggies, or matzah balls to soup, it stretches. I find 1 quart containers feed 4 (but not generously)

I find it serves 3, which is two ladles full, if I don't fill the ladles completely to the top, just most of the way.
