I dunno, "watering down your food" doesn't actually sound that great

You do need water too. Why not combine the two needs?

That is why we are always at Soup.

The idea that soup isn't an unambiguously good idea is horrid

Not all soup is equal, nor is soup an everytime meal

Not all soup is equal but its all a good idea and you and I are from two different worlds, apparently, culinarily. There is a soup for every occasion
Is a bowl of cereal with milk soup?

This guy says it is, but I disagree. Soup doesn't have to be hot but.itnhss to have gotten hot at some point. bsky.app/profile/tuba...
Breakfast soup is called cereal. That's science.

Just need to use pasteurized milk in that case.

The cereal was almost certainly cooked, and the milk was almost certainly pasteurized!

Is a hot dog a sandwich?
Avatar
No, unless the bun splits in half in which case immediately it becomes a sandwich

As someone who spent their jiujitsu class trying to hold down the soup I'd eaten an hour prior, can confirm.

And if the chart said "eating soup right before jiujitsu class" id agree with you

As someone who tried to hold a bowl of soup during a juijistu class that i walked into, i can also confirm

I see a lot of y'all looking for unconventional breakfast soup ontologies but miso soup is legitimately a breakfast food.

Soup is one of those foods that civilisation was built upon tbh

What is cereal if not breakfast soup?

Stew is a better idea.

Soup is good food! Makes a good meal!

Cutting pizza into squares is a good idea when you pizza is already a square. See Detroit Style. I feel like cutting it into wedges like a round pizza would be incredibly cursed.
Avatar
Cutting a lot of other pizzas into squares is also problematic- Chicago, new york, Neapolitan… anything with a crust would be terrible. But Midwest thin crust tavern style… the only real curse of square cut is that you can somehow eat an entire pizza when it’s just a bunch of little pieces.

I miss the octagon taco pizza from highschool. lol
Avatar
Thin crust pizza and long narrow wedges do not mix well, especially if there's a lot of toppings. Squares survive from plate to face much better.
Avatar
Squares rarely have any crust to hold onto; the larger the pizza, the lower the chance. I find squares an abomination an would rather fold a wedge.
