I would have taken it back to him, asked him where the 'real' soup was (Ha,
ha, ha! Nice joke giving me a mouldy batch of soup!) and recommend that he
get someone to analyse the mould on top. He might have found a cure for
cancer or something like that. Either that or take it away and kill it
before it developed language skills.
That story will put me off soup for life I think. Worse thing is, I've
cleaned up mouldy soup before so I can just picture what it looked like. =<
