Most soups don't have noodles. This doesn't work for me.

Also veggie/water is already soup at like 20%watrr

Seems like the diagram on my soup taxonomy paper is not going to make it through peer review ๐Ÿ˜”

It doesn't mean most soups have noodles, it just means noodle content has a fairly overriding influence on how the, uh, soup is defined.

It wouldn't be soup without noodles according to this chart.

Yeah with veggies only and no noodle it stays solidly salad until 50%. The 80/20 veggie-water split is what separates dry salad from salad.

The noodle content just pushes a salad into a soup with less water content than the soup/broth interface does with salad. So clay of noodle.
