Oh, Sharon, I am so sorry. There's nothing worse than taking the time and work to cook something and then hating it.
I don't know why on earth the soup would taste bitter - it sure shouldn't. It is fairly thick - more like a stew than a soup. But the fresh lime juice you add at the end is key - using reconstituted lime juice may have made a big difference there. I don't think using the different chile powders would have mattered as much.
I haven't heard from anyone else who made the soup and had this problem. Dang, I'm really sorry.
