    Default Is cereal a soup?

    Inspired by the title and theme of the recent Vsauce video. Go at it, gladiators.

    Soup requires broth, silly! Milk isn't broth. It's milk!

    If the milk is two months past due, yes

    To me soups equate to warmth. I would not eat warm cereal, whether milk is considered a broth or not. I'd say no, but I guess it depends on your definition/preference

    Soups can be cold, like Gazpacho. Cereal can be hot, like Cream of Wheat or Farina*.

    However, both of those things are not @ all alike.

    See, this is what happens when Shorty leaves staff. Now the CKs only have Psychotic to look up to & we get stuff like this!

    No. Cereal is not a soup. The liquid is an afterthought to the cereal itself. The liquid of soup is actually the main idea for soup.

    Cereal is cereal. Soup is soup.

    I don't know how any sane man could say this. "Imma have a tasty bowl of cereal this fine morning! Hmm, shall I have milk today? Nah! Why bother? *crunch crunch crunch oh god my mouth has become a wasteland devoid of all water and life crunch crunch crunch*"

    :monster:

    Quin speaks truth. The only cereal that is tolerable without milk is frosted flakes, and that's because they're mostly sugar.
