“Cereal has liquid and solids, but it does not really function like soup. Most people experience it as breakfast, not a broth-based dish.”

“Soup is fundamentally a liquid food, often savory, prepared by simmering ingredients in a broth. Cereal involves solid grains steeped in a cold, dairy-based liquid, lacking the culinary preparation and temperature attributes of soup.”

“Cereal ain't soup, it's just wet breakfast. Soup is hot and savory, not sugary milk mush.”
