The better version of this joke
I feel like the post is better, seems like a matter of opinion
I disagree hard. The shape of soup is temperature based.
I am upset by how entirely correct you are about this.
I love how true this is. I made stock and froze it in a Ziploc bag using my bread tins as a brick form. Works perfectly
I call them SoopCube.
Tho right now I am storing fruits for smoothies in it… Still, SoopCube.This is that one trick you don’t want people to know.
Or perhaps because it’s easier to scrape down the sides of a rounded container with a spoon?..
Get out of here with your logic; this is a shitpost
A swirly circle shitpost or a straight log shitpost?
But it’s soup, you can pour instead of scraping. In fact a corner is a better spout for pouring, if we’re being purely practical.
But can you imagine if some fancy-shmancy restaurant served their extremely delicious soup in a square bowl? Teasing you with the impossibility of getting the last drop? I’d tip it out the corner but I’m crass.
If they did so, it would be to mess with your mind and subvert your expectations.
Because soup is round.
If you don’t need to scrape anything out of the bowl on your last couple bites then you’re eating broth, not soup (consommé is a broth, fight me)
Anyone that thinks that a soup is something you can eat in “bites” is either a lard abuser or lives in some -40°C frozen wasteland
Fight on.
You’re acting like you’ve never accidentally reduced a soup far enough that you almost burned it.
There are dozens of cases, every year!
consommé is a broth
Fun fact: in Italian it’s called “brodo chiarificato” which can be roughly translated to “diluted broth”
That only applies if you’re transfering the soup out of the container to eat. If you plan on eating straight from the tupperware, round is better for soup
Unless you pour it in your mouth…
And to use a ladle
Nah, its because you need to scrape down the sides to get all the soup at the end and if its a square container you can’t do that in the corners. Round containers are just easier to scrape down.

Spoiler: it’s fish soup
I would absolutely watch this.
Assuming no gravity, soup is a sphere.
Soup cans > soup cubes
I was wondering why they make them in cans rather than cubes since it’s space lost and found this:
The cylindrical shapes of cans are a major benefit when manufacturing products. The cylindrical shape is the perfect cross-section of using the least amount of material but being able to fit the most product into shipment boxes and on store shelves. A spherical shape is inefficient for packaging, and a cubical shape is inefficient in terms of material use. The cylindrical shape is just right by using a rounded top (like a sphere) and elongated sides (like a cube). This cylindrical shape is also critical for withstanding pressure. This shape can withstand up to 90 lbs of pressure, making them a durable product for day-to-day life.

At this point I’m surprised they haven’t switched to square cans so you pay more but get less soup
It’s very hard to get all of the soup out of a square container, because a spoon won’t reach into the edges properly
Bouba shaped soup
Kiki
Because of bowls, I get it
Because you can’t explain. Because your brain is in a round container and it has personal biases in shape preferences.
I completely understand, I see nothing wrong with this statement.
yeah, ok. tend to agree. although i will allow a Squircle
I wish bouillon cubes were spheres
Bouillon balls
well rounded logic
