Whiskey is a condiment, hotdogs are sandwiches, and lasagna is cake.
Any other good ones?
A calzone is a large dumpling. And a corndog is a dumpling on a stick.
When you eat some meat you are technically a sausage?
If a hot dog is a sandwich, what's a taco 🌮 ?
I would also call tacos and gyros and similar sandwiches myself.
Can you explain the whiskey is a condiment one? I can understand the others, but I'm not dunking my sandwich into some whiskey.
Why would you dunk your sandwich into a condiment instead of putting it on the sandwich?
I wouldn't put whiskey on my sandwich either. I think I was thinking like an au jus sauce.
Cereal is cold, and I'm still not entirely convinced that gazpacho should be considered a soup. Delicious, sure, but soup? No, it's cold. Soup is hot. Cereal is just cereal, and gazpacho is a veggie smoothie.
If you make a tomato soup and then wait for it to cool down, did you just make soup then make a veggie smoothie? Or does it transform at a certain temperature?
Asking the serious questions. I'll say, that to my idea of the definitions, intent matters. If your goal was to make a veggie smoothie, then it wasn't properly tomato soup when it was hot, just an unfinished cooked veggie smoothie that happens to be just like tomato soup. If your goal was tomato soup, then it's not a veggie smoothie, just tomato soup that has gone cold and is no longer ready to eat until it has been reheated. I'll support this take by claiming that a good cook would adjust the ingredients to make the result more delicious at the intended serving temperature, thus making ideal recipes for either actually different after all. (And we'll just stick with the culinary meaning of vegetable, ignoring that botanically speaking, tomatoes are a fruit.)
Intent makes sense. It would make me ponder another question though. What if intent is unknown? If you come across a veggie smoothie/tomato soup, would it be unknown until you find the chef? Or like Schroedingers soup?
I'll just assume whichever way tastes better. Give the unknown chef the benefit of the doubt.
No, it's cold. Soup is hot.
What if you don't like to eat hot/warm food? Are you ever eating soup of you eat it at your preferred temp? And I mean 'normal meal out in the fridge before eating', no adjustments for temp or anything.
If so, it's a desert soup.
Breakfast Gazpacho
Why not stew?
