Gazpacho is a cold soup, that's the only one I can think of off of the top of my head.

Whats Gazpacho like..? Never heard of that one before.
How do you know so much about soup !KA!?

I guess I could of just checked that myself and avoided this entire thread. wow.

So it's slow cooked soup. It's still soup.

Mmm, having soup tonite.

Maybe cereal is chowder. Isn't chowder milk based?

chow·der Audio pronunciation of "chowder" ( P ) Pronunciation Key (choudr)
n.

1. A thick soup containing fish or shellfish, especially clams, and vegetables, such as potatoes and onions, in a milk or tomato base.

I guess cereal might be considered a chowder, but not really. Cereal isn't really a "thick soup".

I think what it all means, is that "soup" is a catagory, in which the specific "stew" lies. they are not equal in the pyramid of definition for example a rectangle is a category and the square is in that category, hence a square is a rectangle, but a rectangle isn't a square. confused yet? good. here's something else to chew on: a rectangle is to a square as a soup is to a stew. still don't understand? perhaps I can help: a stew is a type of soup. ok?

I thought we were talking about "cereal".

After all these pages we can't find a conclusion? Seems like a simple enough question.

You can't find a conclusion? You must not have READ THE FUCKING THREAD then.

Are you blind? The answer is that yes, cereal is soup.

Im glad somebody agrees with me...

He really doesn't, he's just attempting to get a rise out of me.
