In Soup, Spice Bags tackles another installment of “Staples” – where we three discuss a food from each of our cultural perspectives. In this episode, we talk soup, because baby, it’s cold outside. Soup, for us, is fundamental, and yet, as we discover, plays a different role in our lives. Why do the Spanish drink their gazpacho from a glass?  Why do the Chinese hate blended soups? What is the Jewish-American legacy of “chicken soup?” Why does Mei pack cans of Campbells in her luggage when she goes to the US, why does Blanca find it weird to make a meal of a soup, and how is Dee’s father the master of the Knorr packet?  From consommé to chowder and congee, we take some stock.P.S. We mention the sexiest soup scene in cinema history.
