the food also flavors the water, and sometimes a mildly food-flavored hot water is a really great thing to have

[–] outhouseperilous@lemmy.dbzer0.com 10 points 1 year ago (3 children)

Some soup is also pretty good cold.

Hate soup.

If you spilled that much water over my plate of pasta in a restaurant I'd send it back and nobody would question it.

[–] massive_bereavement@fedia.io 28 points 1 year ago (1 children)

I'll say you didn't have good soup yet.

[–] MudMan@fedia.io 15 points 1 year ago (2 children)

You are probably correct, because I will go way out of my way to have my meatballs the normal way instead of at the bottom of a pool of dirty water.

[–] RaivoKulli@sopuli.xyz 1 points 1 year ago (1 children)

Dirty water? Lmao who cooked for you

[–] MudMan@fedia.io 2 points 1 year ago (1 children)

It's hard to keep water clean when you put meatballs inside it.

To flip my original post, if you dropped that much meat into my glass of water I'd send it back and nobody would question me.

[–] RaivoKulli@sopuli.xyz 1 points 1 year ago (1 children)

You're not making a soup by just dropping shit in a glass though lol

[–] MudMan@fedia.io 2 points 1 year ago (1 children)

And yet the end result is still wet meatballs.

Someone hasn't tried sloppy steaks at Truffoni's

[–] Slimthickens@lemmy.world 7 points 1 year ago (1 children)

Well, they said no sloppy steaks.

[–] killeronthecorner@lemmy.world 11 points 1 year ago (1 children)

Yeah but I used to be a piece of shit

I'm scared OP thinks people don't change

[–] Slimthickens@lemmy.world 5 points 1 year ago (1 children)

People can change. I used to be a piece of shit: Spiked-up Blonde hair, itty bitty jeans, chicken spaghetti at Chicolini's. People can change.

[–] PunnyName@lemmy.world 3 points 1 year ago (2 children)

I feel like this is a series of Always Sunny quotes or references, and I've never seen that show.

[–] ivanafterall@lemmy.world 3 points 1 year ago

Let him hold the baby. People can change.

[–] ivanafterall@lemmy.world 3 points 1 year ago (1 children)

Btw, it's not Always Sunny, it's this, fyi.

I’m not a fan of Tim Robinson, but I get why people like him.

[–] RaivoKulli@sopuli.xyz 1 points 1 year ago (1 children)

Makes me think of noodle soup or just noodles with a lot of water. I prefer them that way, the tasty water is the best part

[–] MudMan@fedia.io 2 points 1 year ago

I am 100% not joking, this sentence made me queasy.

Soup was probably designed by raccoons.

[–] Ganbat@lemmy.dbzer0.com 9 points 1 year ago (1 children)

I heard that in the tune of "Turn down for what."

[–] Etterra@discuss.online 8 points 1 year ago (1 children)

I prefer cream soups: gross gloopy when cold, delicious soup when hot.

[–] MudMan@fedia.io 2 points 1 year ago (3 children)

If you like cream soups you don't get to make gross faces when somebody starts drinking ketchup directly out of the bottle.

You can't just heat up a sauce and tell people that's the whole meal. That should be against the rules.

[–] flicker@lemmy.dbzer0.com 9 points 1 year ago (1 children)

I promise you my potato soup is not a sauce.

It's a cream soup and it's essentially weird mashed potato when cold.

You're characterizing a whole spectrum with one terrible example.

[–] MudMan@fedia.io 2 points 1 year ago (4 children)

And you just told me you're drinking mashed potatoes.

I think one of us has chosen a terrible example, but it's not me.

Nothing false about it. You figure out the difference between marinara, gazpacho and a bloody mary and then report back on the falsehood.

I don't put cream soups in my mouth, but I have family members who do, and I have reused pumpkin and carrot creams as pasta sauces with no modifications multiple times. I can defend this with a perfectly straight face and I can spell the name of the fallacy I'm not using.

[–] cannon_annon88@lemmy.today 6 points 1 year ago

Marinara is a sauce made primarily with tomatoes, cooked down to the desired thickness. Usually dark, well cooked and rich. Gazpacho is a chilled soup made with raw vegetables, blended together. Tomato is usually used as a base but it's not always the main ingredient. You can make lots of different gazpachos. A bloody Mary is a cocktail made with straight tomato juice, no cooking or blending involved. You would not toss your pasta in this, unless you were an alcoholic that liked to eat disgusting pasta.

What? I've never heard anything like that before. That is... so weird. But I guess if that's a rule, thanks.

[–] CyberEgg@discuss.tchncs.de 5 points 1 year ago

So thin I can't find the meme.

[–] cannon_annon88@lemmy.today 4 points 1 year ago (2 children)

Soups are one of my favorite things to make.

Rustic veggie soups, different kinds of chili (yes I consider chili a type of soup), blended soups, soups with noodles in em, ramen (yes, it's soup), stews, bean soups... It's all good.

If you hate soup, you're weird. Get real.

But first you have to drain the pond first before finding the food.
