I do not care for pumpkin soup!
Growing up, my mother mentioned more than once that she did not care for pumpkin soup. It had been a staple meal for the family during the depression. The idea did not sound especially tastey to me either but I am now determined to find out fo myself. I am in the process of collecting recipes, including soup, that use pumpkin as one of the ingredients.
