Is it normal to hate soup?

I completely understand why soup exists. Evolutionarily, soup is one of the most effective ways of both cooking your food and containing its nutrients in a digestible form. There is no question that soup is one of the most important foods of all time, especially given how economically viable it can be to make for yourself.

However, I personally find it absolutely repulsive.

I can't stand to see a perfectly good cut of pork, chicken, beef or even a vegetable be ruined by the addition of boiling water. I don't care if the flavor of the soup's ingredients will still be present in the broth. The food scraps in the soup will be soggy, flaccid and disgusting.

    My brother, in his own words, is "ideologically opposed to soup."

          I gotta try that some day perhaps I might make it for my family one day. I'm sure they'd love the sound and the taste of it.

            I wish I knew how to cook Colombian food like my mom!

    My family always makes chicken tortilla soup. Serve with some avocado and it's fucking delicious.

    What's your opinion on chili?

      Chili with those big proteany beans are gross, mostly cause they give me stomach cramps followed by #2.

      Chili isn't my favorite because they contain another food which I feel might be abnormal for people to hate, which are beans. I also have a hard time defending this opinion because I know beans are incredibly healthy with their high fiber content. I just don't really like the texture though

    It's perfectly normal. Whilst I don't exactly hate soup, I can easily live without it and wouldn't care if I never ate it again for the rest of my life.

    Reminds me of frostpunk, those people have an irrational hatred for soup.

    But I get everyone has foods that they just dont like

    Well, I love soup, but it's OK if some people don't like soup. Not everybody shares preferences.

    I love broth. Not that condensed into a cube packed with salt bullion. I like the paleo stuff.

    Idk if that counts. Chunky makes the best canned soup

    From experience, most soups are very effective at curing hangovers.

    Some of my favorites are; Knorr Chicken Delite soup, Knorr Chicken Mushroom soup, and Cow Hoof soup/stew.

    Ive had a really bad tooth abscess for the last couple weeks, no dentist in the area will take medicaid anymore. So Ive been basically eating whatever soup I can make outta stuff for like 2 weeks and Ima be honest I usually like soups but liquid food gets old fast.

      I had such an abscess in November 1985, my friend. You have my sympathy. Get well soon.

        I get em every once in a while. Peroxide and saltwater kills it.

    I dislike food that has soup. It doesn't look good and neither does it have a great taste.

    The place I work has a butternut squash and ginger soup. It’s literally perfect.

    What about Tom Yung Goong, Ramen or Udon? Sorry, but your opinion is invalid.
