Probably oil
Yeah my parents have decided oil is the root of all evil and cook everything in water now lol. They love their soggy food.
My brother-in-law considers it frankly offensive that there's an actual thing called "New England boiled dinner." My sister and I love it, but he can't get past the name.
I had to look it up…
A New England boiled dinner is a traditional, one-pot comfort food that originated in the northeastern US. The dish typically includes corned beef, cabbage, potatoes, and carrots, all boiled together in water to create a broth. Other root vegetables like turnips, rutabagas, or parsnips can be added. The corned beef is cooked until tender, and the root vegetables become so soft they can be cut with a spoon. The dish requires little attention and no extra seasoning
🤦🏼♀️
lol, this ironically looks like what Americans who’ve never left their county think British food is.

Alcohol. They were just boiling it.
Is that why they call the unmodified thing "raw sewage"? Is it because it's used in cooking?
It's because the bottled sewerage market demands that their product be called "refined sewerage," or sometimes "sparkling sewerage" if carbonated.
But it can only be called "le fizzy shitz" if it's from the Shitz region of France.
I know it's overused but cliches are cliche for a reason, so I love it when people say "So close!" and then make fun of someone for saying some braindead shit.
Also reminds me of some stupid ad I saw for expensive ass chlorophyll powder packets to put in your water. My sibling in christ, eat a fucking salad with spinach if you want chlorophyll.
CHLOROPHYLL? more like BORE-OPHYLL!
"That's why I take twice-daily MORE-O-PHYLL from Malt-O-Meal."

"Stomach is thriving"
They don't even try to form coherent thoughts anymore, just buzzwords to sell your current "brand".
Just assume this kind of sloppy copy is AI.
The depressing thing is how often it’s not
The depressing thing is how often it works
Somehow, without the aid of nuclear devestation, people have managed to reset to Year 0. Just "rediscovering" shit that already existed as if it's new tech. And then try to sell it to people.
It'd almost be funny if it didn't make me so fuckin mad.
What's worse is they all passed history class. Somehow.
It's just interaction bait.
Have you noticed more and more people "blank behind the eyes?" I have. Like a real life ai model.

The ocean is technically a soup
And technically, so are you
What technicality are we playing on here? Anything that contains water is a soup?
I mean humans are like 80% water so
And lettuce is 96% water. Basically every fruit and vegetable is more water than a human is. But you hand me a bowl of lettuce and call it soup we're gonna have words.
Also humans are more like 60%.

I thought this post was a nod to our ancestors who figured out the power of soup-life.
These mother fuckers getting nutrients from hitherto inedible plants and just chillin as all the others got the runs and fever from eating uncooked game with worms n shit
Not even good soup. Real soups use some kind of broth to give a lot of base flavor.
What do you think a broth is?
My brother in christ, what do you think we use to make the broth?

I'm convinced that everyone who starts one of these weird diets and feels better has a random food sensitivity that just happens to get cut out by their diet.
Like, you feel way better on that crazy carnivore diet where you eat only meat, but it's cause you have undiagnosed celiacs and eating only meat happens to cut out all wheat.
water based hot salad
If you want to do "water based cooking" for vegetables try steaming instead of boiling.
Okay so now I'm questioning where the line between soup and stew is...
Viscosity
Stew is thicker and chunkier. Generally made by slowly braising a big ole hunk of otherwise inediblely tough meat for a long time in some kinda liquid. Soup is generally thinner with little bits of whatever the fuck you have laying around tossed in to a broth or stock.
Chili is a stew. A bisque or chowder is a soup.
I think it's more that a stew is a kind of soup. Bisque is a kind of soup, chowder is a kind of soup.
The real question is how many noodles can you eat it with before you have to start calling it a sauce.

Depends on the bisque or chowder.
I think the best way to describe the difference is just a higher liquid to solid ratio.

Potagers hate this one weird trick!
And now you're water-based pooping.
This reminds me of when I was doing chi gungs with a YouTube monk, until he started making bizarre claims that I’d never get sick again and my body would magically heal itself. It did not.
