What is the difference between food and drink?

<p>Soup screws everything up. But really wuts the difference?</p>

<p>you chew food and you dont chew drink?</p>

<p>thats all i can think of</p>

<p>like soup for example, you dont say eating soup, you say “drinking soup”</p>

<p>so broth is a drink ur saying?</p>

<p>…You don’t say “drinking soup.” You say “eating soup.”</p>

<p>The broth is a drink, yes, but soup is both the drink and that broth contains. Therefore, one “eats” soup, which implies a drinking of the broth.</p>

<p>Where I am from we say “eating soup”</p>

<p>How about this: Any dish that contains solid objects that are chewed, or a significant amout of sodium, is classified as food. Everything else is a drink.</p>

<p>Bubble tea gets its own category of “weird thing I’m not touching with a 10-foot pole”.</p>

<p>soup is a food because its salty.</p>

<p>For example, a milkshake is thicker than soup, but is not a food. This is because it is cold and sweet.</p>

<p>Generally, cold and sweet liquid = drink, while hot and salty = food.</p>

<p>oh wow, ive always said drinking soup</p>

<p>^^I have hot and salty hot chocolate sometimes.
Solve that dilemma.</p>

<p>What about Bloody Marys? They are salty. Are they not drinks?</p>

<p>Random topic…</p>

<p>The words food and drink are merely labels for easy categorization. Just eat/drink the damn thing.</p>

<p>

<p>Bubble tea is awesome! Now I’m craving some …</p>

<p>lol, who has salty hot chocolate?</p>

<p>and bubble tea is so good</p>

<p>^Salty hot chocolate is a delicacy of my country. :frowning:
My people ate it on cold, bone-chilling winter nights to survive. It was all they had.</p>

<p>

</p>

<p>your loss… it is amazing and even my white friends would agree</p>

<p>What’s bubble tea?</p>

<p>^A Taiwanese drink, it’s cold milk tea with little tapioca balls at the bottom. you drink it with an oversized straw. it’s so good, although the tapioca takes a while to get used to:)</p>

<p>Oh. I don’t think I’d like it…
Does it taste like regular tea? I only had that once, because it was disgusting.
I’m more of a coffee or hot chocolate (And sometimes at the same time) person.</p>

<p>i love taiwan</p>

<p>I don’t really know how to describe it… it’s pretty sweet so none of the bitter tea taste, almost like a cappuccino, but without the strong coffee flavor.</p>
