Breakfast cereal served the standard way, in a bowl with cold milk poured on and eaten with a spoon. Does this count as a soup, why or why not? Defend your answer with logic (or emotion, whatever I’m not your dad)

Uh, no. Vegetables are a defined thing, specifically for culinary purposes.
Defined how? They’re a grouping of roots, fruits, leaves, and tubers.
Wait, grains and beans and seeds too.
Btw I have an avocado pit, let me think how to make vegetarian soup with it. Got any recipes??
Through their culinary use in the kitchen. But you’re just here arguing about semantics anyway.
Well duh, this is a post about the meaning of soup. We’re all here arguing semantics. Anyway, if you can justify the meaning of “vegetable” by its culinary use in the kitchen, then we might as well shortcut this chain of thinking and use that argument directly for soup.
Clearly cereal is not a soup, going by its culinary use in the kitchen.
I realized that I definitely wandered beyond the topic at hand. OP’s whole idea is to argue a culinary term, and “vegetable” is a culinary term.
wow wheat is actually a fruit! TIL
