The cube rule decided this. Cereal is wet nachos.
What's the cube rule and how did it decide this?
Welcome to the future. It is a utopia here, where arguments about food categorization are a thing seen only in historical fiction and meme museums.
So then.. only when soup has croutons is it the same thing as cereal. I feel enlightened.
Anything without a starch is a salad. So lobster bisque is a salad, and potato soup is toast.
Like French onion soup?
Taxonomists exist for a reason, y'all!
Cereal belongs to the genus Granum and the family Lactoi but indeed they belong to the same order as soup, or Pulmenti. And while these taxonomies don't always line up with food evolution theory, we at least believe oatmeal and cereal are cousins from a similar ancestral food. Soup just happens to be a common, perfect form, like crabs.
Chicago deep dish pizza = casserole
I would never utter those words in Chicago. You will end up as a statistic
For guaranteed suicide in Chicago ... ask for ketchup on your hot dog
I've never been to Chicago but a friend of mine just went there and while he went wandering around, he asked me to research as much as I could about the city to see what he should or shouldn't do.
Patrice o Neal was on Opie and Anthony one time shitting on deep dish.
I do not think I've ever heard any more upset phone calls over something that matters so little lol
Totally agree.
I would say it's much closer to gruel.
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gruel
Although soup, stew and gruel are all supposed to be cooked before eaten.
One could argue that cereal is precooked
It's definitely pre-cooked. But I think the precursor to modern boxed cereal is not gruel but rather breaking up something like a biscuit, cornbread, etc into a bowl of milk.
One could also classify most if not all boxed cereals as desserts with the amount of sugar in them.
I stick to just plain oatmeal with unsweetened almond milk.
I put dry cereal in the microwave for a few seconds, then add cinnamon, then cold milk.
Changed my life.
Wet Salad.
I'm making this a thing.
I gave your mom a wet salad.
Some moist roughage?
Cereal is just crunchy instant porridge.
Does dipping Oreos in milk make it soup?
Cookie Crisp and Oreo O's cereals complicate the question in context. If drowning little cookies in milk is cereal and cereal (for the sake of this argument) is soup, then yes.
Is a Pop-Tart ravioli?
Fruit empanada.
Only if you boil it
Tomatoes are fruits... which means salsa is a fruit salad.
I'm just going to quit eating. It's become way too complicated.
What is a soup? A broth? Some vegetables? Using a bean stock, mixed with a little sugar and maybe another bean for flavor, like vanilla, and a splash of cream you can see a latte is a bean broth bisque.
Only if you heat it up.
Cheerios in cold milk = not soup
Porridge = soup
Ketchup is a smoothie.
A hotdog is a taco.
Can you eat soup dry? Then no they're different.
As a tween, one of my favorite snacks was dry ramen noodles.
Dry soup is just a salad
Whenever people complain about "legalese" or technical language, I always think of the hotdog/sandwich thing. Abstruse nomenclature exists for a reason!
Cereal is only soup if you boil the cereal in the milk.
So oatmeal is soup, a bowl of cold Cheerios isn't.
And before anyone comes up with "but borscht is cold" it is still boiled to create the soup and then chilled before serving. You're not just tossing cold beets and water together and calling it soup.
Milk can be pasteurized before consumption. The process varies but can be as long as 30 minutes at 63c. I'd say a bowl of Cheerios with Raw Milk isn't a soup.
It's still a chicken noodle soup if I mix the premade ingredients with a broth and don't cook it.
Ah, but you're not pre-cooking the cheerios in the milk. It's like pouring a pre-made broth over uncooked veggies and meat.
Who the FUCK eats борщ cold!? What crazy coo-coo land chicanery is that?!
Окрошка is cold.
Is peanut butter bean dip or hummus?
