Winter. The Worst Season To Ever Exist. It's Cold And Wet And Gross, The Wind Goes Right Through You, And To Top It All Off, You Have To Watch Happy Couples Warm Each Other Up.

Fortunately, I Have Just The Thing To Help What Ails You. Let's Heat Things Up With A Debate, Shall We?

Every Food Can Either Be Categorized As A Soup, A Salad, Or A Sandwich. A Soup Is A Food Whose Liquid Content ("Soupiness") Is Deemed As "High". A Salad Is A Food Whose Liquid Content Is Deemed As Low ("Dressing"). A Sandwich Is Anything That Has What Could Feasibly Be Defined As Bread On Two Or More Sides.

Some Examples:

Pizza Is A Salad. The Liquid Ratio Is Almost None, Even In The Case Of The Greasiest Pizzas. While There Is Something That Can Be Defined As Bread ("The Crust"), It's Only On One Side. However, If You Fold A Pizza In Half, It Becomes A Sandwich.

Bread Bowl Soups Are Sandwiches. This Is Because It Functionally Has Bread On Two Or More Sides.

French Dip Sandwiches Are Soups, Despite Their Misleading Name. Dipping Them Into Au Jus Turns Them Incredibly Soggy, Leading To Their Classification.

Feel Free To Debate And Add Your Own Below. Just Don't Come To Blows Over This, Okay?

Do you think friendship can bloom, even on the battlefield? Lets see what you've got!

1). An egg is a soup no matter what, the shell is just a bowl! When you cook eggs they're still mostly liquid if you're eating them correctly, as eggs with running yolks are far superior to hard, tasteless dry eggs. Hardboiled eggs are simply the fillings of a soup (egg in water) removed and eaten seperately, like dipping soba! So basically, all eggs are soup, and no salad is involved!

2). I cannot argue with this, eclairs are absolutely a sandwich. You get one point!

3). A cupcake can have a liquid interior of jam or chocolate, pushing it more towards a soup or sandwich! For example if a cupcake has a layer of cream and strawberries in the middle it goes right back towards being a sandwich. How do you argue against the points listed?

some people cant eat runny or even raw eggs because of either issues with the texture/taste or dietary reasons. by saying theres only one way to eat an egg correctly youre excluding a lot of people in your argument so im going to say its completely invalid on account of discrimineggtion

[NOAH.]

i can agree that the eggshell is just a bowl for a raw egg (soup) though. as for hard boiled eggs, the insides of the egg become mostly solid, and youre not eating the water around the egg or the egg as part of the water you used to boil it unless you want to i guess. a hardboiled egg on its own is a salad. i would even go so far as to say you could put an egg in a salad and it would therefore be a salad topping. the same goes for a hardboiled egg in soup, its a soup topping. but the egg itself if hardboiled is a salad.

i didnt think of a cupcake with filling so you got me there though. if a cupcake has a filling like a jelly or cream or something it would technically be a sandwich with a garnish (frosting) i think. i dont think a cupcake or its filling can be a soup because i dont think fillings like jam/cream/chocolate are liquid. theyre still mostly solid
