Is cereal soup?

[Hawkeye OG]

Thoughts?

I've never thought of cereal as soup, but I can definitely see it. Both require you to spoon a liquid into your mouth. I think the deciding factor could be the temperature aspect but there are cold soups so therefore, cereal is just soup.

I don't think of it as soup.

1.
a liquid dish, typically made by boiling meat, fish, or vegetables, etc., in stock or water.

^^ Not soup.

2.
a substance or mixture perceived to resemble soup in appearance or consistency.

^^ Possibly soup.

Is a hotdog a sandwich? I'm perplexed by both.

 

[Tjodalv]

If vichyssoise can be considered a soup, then just about anything can...

And, yes, hotdogs are definitely sandwiches.

Neither cereal, nor soup is stew.

Yep, it meets the qualifications of definition 2.

Glad that's settled.

Tremendously

Tremendously

Being a liquid, water is not itself wet, but can make other solid materials wet.

Wetness is the ability of a liquid to adhere to the surface of a solid, so when we say that something is wet, we mean that the liquid is sticking to the surface of a material.

But does that make water dry?

 

[Xuder O'Clam]

Wet has several meanings, and can also be used as a noun. I appreciate your want to be clever though.

A hot dog becomes a sandwich once you put it on a bun. A cereal becomes a soup never.

Holy shit dude... Yes, I think

I mean, they don't give you those fancy cocktail sticks through the premium McDonald's bun. Is that a requirement?

Without the sticks, not a club.
