Cereal is actually soup

[moonbogg]

Because you can't explain the difference and I say they are both the same. Bismoths.

Specifically chowder.

Soup simmers, mixes, cooks, boils and gets stirred. There can also be lots of prep in soup - precooking the meats & vegetables, chopping, etc.

Cereal is something you pour milk over. You wouldn't consider making a sandwich cooking (same with cereal),... where as soup is cooking.

It involves a bowl, something dry, and something wet being poured or mixed. What about hot cereals, hmm? Some people like herbal trimmings with their hot cereal. That line just got a lot blurrier.

You are still mixing and matching pre-processed food items. The cereal comes from a package. And, even the trimmings to a certain extent.

You still don't 'cook' cereal - hot or cold.

I think this could be the response to literally every thread moonborg has ever created.

Both of our mug shots, side by side, with the lyrics from "Bad Reputation" right below us. Together, we will show them we just don't give a damn.

"I don't give a damn 'bout my reputation
You're living in the past, it's a new generation" etc etc

Lets make it happen Naer. Lets be stupid together. I want this.

Hot cereals no longer have a broth and separate solid parts, thus, they are not soups either. It might not be possible to fail harder than you have with this thread.

Funny, I had hot cooked oatmeal for breakfast.


Oatmeal had to be measured out of the container.
Cooked in boiling water with a pinch of salt.
Stirring for a couple of minutes to ensure it did not burn.

Placed into a bowl
A few dried cranberries and cinnamon mixed in.

Sounds a lot like soup.

 

[gorcorps]

Does that mean the fruit cup I had for lunch is also a soup? Chunks of stuff in a liquid "broth"

Hot tea isn't cooking. So, oatmeal is not cooking.

Technically, cereal is a grass that produces grain. Saying cereal is a soup is like saying spaghetti is a sauce.

 

[Kadarin]

I simply don't eat breakfast. Problem solved.

Hot tea isn't cooking. So, oatmeal is not cooking.

Hot tea is seeping, not cooking.

Cooking requires having proportions; applying heat and stopping when enough heat has been applied to generate the end result.

What is your definition of cooking?
Multiple ingredients, tools or just a personal preference.

Fruit cup is not soup.

Nor cooking, unless you prep the fruit (sear it, season it, let it sautée in cognac, chill, etc), add home made cream, or a baked good (from scratch) of some sorts and then you can call it cooking.

But, that prepackaged processed fruit cup is not cooking nor soup.

More of a stew than a soup
