A Bowl of Vegetable Soup

Checking the menu, a restaurant customer ordered a bowl of vegetable soup. After a couple of spoonfuls, he noticed a little pool of liquid forming under the bowl. He called the waitress over and said, "There's broth all over the table. I think the bowl is cracked."
The waitress said, "You ordered vegetable soup, didn't you?"
"Yes," answered the customer.
"Maybe it has a leek in it!" replied the waitress.
