Soup-Do you eat it?
Ok, can somebody settle an argument. Do you eat soup, or drink it?

If chewing is required then you're eating it, if not then drinking, maybe?

Depends on it's consistancy. If it's completely smooth, you drink it. Otherwise, you eat it. Either way - it involves ingestion...

I pondered this - and surely the same could be applied to porridge (ie consistencies), but nobody would say that they "drink" porridge I don't think?

But then it wouldn't be porridge - it'd be a bowl of milk with a few porridge flakes in it
![]() No - it would be very thin porridge, or thick milk, depending how you look at it .

By definition, one drinks soup because it is a liquid. It is possible to eat the bits (if it has got bits in) but they are not the soup itself.
