I like how precise it is. It seems they tried all the combinations

[–] logicbomb@lemmy.world 38 points 2 days ago (6 children)

They tried something that was 5% noodles, 5% vegetables, and 90% water, and decided that the result was water.

seems accurate. if i had bucket of water and there was a single pea and a lone noodle floating in it i sure as heck wouldn't call it soup, or even think that its intentional

Yeah, it's like if you get a water flask at a restaurant and they have some lemon or something in it. It's still water not soup.

Same idea but vegetables and noodles

If it was 15% pureed vegetables however? Because that's what the bottom axis represents

vegetable flavoured water? thinnest of broths? realistically, we call it nothing because what would you even do with something that's 15% vegetable puree and 85% water? my only idea would be to add more vegetables to make it into something, or to use it as i'd use regular water to boil other vegetables or make pasta in it

Cucumber water is a thing.

Realistically, 15% is too high but if the section for water was any shorter the word wouldn’t fit inside.
