    Bob what the hell, how can you be THIS WRONG? This is as wrong as Shorty except that EVEN SHE IS CORRECT THIS TIME

    Also Bob when you smear yourself in feces and start yelling random insanity about soup being a drink at co-workers, that's not an "argument at work", it's a crazy person.

    ​Soup is a food, but it can be drunk like a beverage

    iit: People take soup way too seriously.

    I see it as food unless it's just the broth, then it becomes a drink.

I have no doubt that one - in particular, you - could make a soup in such a way that it could be considered a drink, but at that point it would cease being soup, so...
    What makes a soup a soup!? For me, it's "liquidated food" and since a drink is a consumable liquid, that means that soup is a drink... oh, and I question what you're saying regarding the fruit juice thing. I mean, 100% fruit juice "with bits" is basically the entire inside of the fruit, and acts as both a drink and a food.

    Sorta like soup. ;D

    I have yet to have anyone tell me a reasonable, logical reason that soup is not a drink.

    A drink quenches ones thirst. I do not reach for a cool frosty mug of soup after a hard day of working in the sun.

    It sounds to me that your logic is lying in the fact that both soup and drinks contain water. Bread and beer both have yeast. Bread must be a drink too. *nod*

    No, my logic is lying in the fact that they are both consumable liquids. You drink soup, you don't drink bread. xD Although if you liquidate it...

    EDIT: And not all drinks quench thirst. Coffee and alcohol dehydrate, not hydrate. And it could be argued that some soups can quench thirst depending on how thin they are. The soup I had yesterday definitely quenched mine! It was really thin. Like, really, really thin. Strong, still, though. They obviously used a lot of beef stock.

    No one drinks soup. It's eaten with a spoon. Because it's a food. Furthermore nearly all soups have solid additives that one would not find in any self-respecting drink, because soup is not a drink.

    BoB is the wrongest wrong in the history of wrongs.

    But it also fits the definition of drink, Manny. Not all soups have chunks of food, not all soups are "eaten" with a spoon (seriously? eaten? do you eat chunkless soup?).

    See, if anyone else had made this thread I would applaud what a marvelous troll they had pulled off. As lonny bob is genuinely round-the-bend, loop-de-loop crazy I can only shake my head.

    i still maintain my point that this is a thread made by a religious fundamentalist trying to force everyone to join their wacky sect and trying to explain why they're right using cyclical explanations while everyone else is arguing with actual science

    and idk why this is still in GC not EoEO
