Because it's cold?gazpacho, borscht... Because it's grains in fluid? That's a lot of soups. Dairy? In fact, many of my favorite soups have a base of coconut or soy or cream or milk fluids with various solid items.   Serving time? You may be surprised to know that it been both Asia and Latin america, soup is an incredibly prevalent breakfast food.   Think I'll have a bowl of Cioppino Crrunch.
