Cheese Soup

The most interesting thing in the cafeteria today (served twice, both at lunch and dinner, I don't know about breakfast), was called "Canadian Cheese Soup." I had never heard of anything like cheese soup, but when I saw the sign it made me wonder just enough to try some.  Mostly I wondered how similar it would be to queso. I wasn't sure if I wanted to eat a bowl of queso, so I took half of a little bowl, just for a taste.  It was surprisingly wonderful.  It was much thinner than queso, so the title of soup did apply, as I was afraid it wouldn't.  I also really enjoyed the taste. It wasn't very spicy, like queso sometimes is, of course I wouldn't expect too much spice to come from Canada.  I don't really know how Canadian this dish was, but at dinner I took a whole bowl of it and found it quite enjoyable the second time.  I believe that it had carrots and celery in it.  Like queso, the soup did get a thin film on the top of it, but that has never bothered me very much.  Cheese soup was a very new eating experience for me, but it gave me a very pleasant surprise.
