Sing a Song of Soup Bowls

My week of soup obsession continues... But c'mon! You have to a food so satisfying it inspires song:

I'm particularly in love with the Moby Dick reference to clam chowder (creamy New England-style, naturally) and this kickin' quote:

"A New England clam chowder, made as it should be, is a dish to preach about, to chant praises and sing hymns and burn incense before. To fight for. The Battle of Bunker Hill was fought for — or on — clam chowder; part of it at least, I am sure it was. It is as American as the Stars and Stripes, as patriotic as the national Anthem. it is 'Yankee Doodle in a kettle.'" — Joseph C. Lincoln
