Soup, etc. Opinions vary and may be dubious (4,2,9)
I believe the answer is:
open to suspicion
'dubious' is the definition.
(thesaurus)
'soup etc opinions vary' is the wordplay.
'vary' indicates anagramming the letters.
'soup'+'etc'+'opinions'='soupetcopinions'
'soupetcopinions' anagrammed gives 'OPEN TO SUSPICION'.
'and may be' acts as a link.
I am not very happy about this link. Some or all of it may be part of another bit of the clue.
Can you help me to learn more?
I've seen this clue in the Sydney Morning Herald.
