Tomato-based vegetable soup originated in the southern Spanish region of Andalucia. Gazpacho is widely consumed in Spanish cuisine, usually during the summer months. Gazpacho soup day celebrates the fans of the British television show Red Dwarf and the significant event in the series that had a profound impact on one of its main characters, Arnold J. Rimmer. In the series, the Gazpacho Soup Incident took place on November 25, 2180, aboard the JMC mining ship Red Dwarf during its final voyage. Captain Frank Hollister invited Arnold J. Rimmer, the lowest-ranking crew member, to dine at the Captain's Table and enjoy a course of gazpacho soup. Unaware that gazpacho was traditionally served cold, Rimmer demanded the chef take it away and bring it back hot. The officers laughed at Rimmer's mistake, and he never ate at the Captain's Table again.
