Depends on how much milk was added. Lots of milk? Definitely soup. Just a little milk? Sauce. Somewhere in the middle? Stew.

Unless you mix it up thoroughly, it might count as a roux.

Need butter/oil for a roux.

Now if yall eatin Oily-os or butterflakes, youre all set.

Broth is cooked, sauce has viscosity, and to be a beverage, it would need to be the majority of the thing. So none of the above. It's a mixture, until you eat enough of the cereal, then it's a beverage.

I have absolutely had sauces with lower viscosity than some milk

Wet salad. The milk is the salad. The cereal are croutons.

Wait, that's soup.

This is soup. The cereal are croutons.

The milk is soup.

All fluids have a viscosity ergo liquid nitrogen (and gaseous nitrogen for that matter) is a sauce. Mmmm

Who made you in charge or arbitrarily defining the properties of a sauce.

Absolutely a sauce can have a high viscosity.

I did. Sorry about that. I'll choose more carefully next time

The question is not what 'cereal with milk' is together but what milk is to the cereal. It's a beverage. It was a beverage before it was poured over the cereal and it is still beverage after it was poured. It's exactly the same as water on a sloppy stake.

The definition of broth is "liquid in which meat, fish, cereal grains, or vegetables have been cooked"

So it would be a broth if you cooked the cereal in the milk.

Wait a minute now.... What if that is not cow milk but a milk alternative? Oatmilk, rice milk or almond milk. Could a alternative milk not be a broth?

Now place that bowl of cereal in a hotdog bun. Is it a cream sandwich, a milk wrap, or a fucking mess?

To throw this into greater array: now that the milk has been poured into the cereal, it's clearly broth; what was the milk before it was poured into the cereal?

A beverage. Cereal makes it a broth because it soaks the flavors of the Cereal

But you don't make soup with a beverage, you make it with a broth.

Hmm possibly. I guess you could classify milk as a broth prior because it’s pasteurized

But also water added to broth makes more broth its just more diluted and you can do that at any point in the soup making process.

Water is a beverage about as much as milk is a beverage

You're telling me I can't drink blended vegetables as a beverage?

I'm telling you that when you drink blended vegetables, it is a beverage.

It's the same as the tomato juice in gespatcho soup right? A cold soup.

That's why prototype theory is so superior to any attempt to define things with clear borders
