My significant other ate cucumbers and onion with some ranch. I called it a cucumber onion salad. She says there aren’t enough ingredients to call it a salad, because “it takes multiple ingredients”. I pointed out she had three and asked what the minimum is. She refuses to answer so I ask Lemmy.

Been there and found out that If you dig deep enough almost everything is either a salad or a soup

A soup is just a salad with a lot of dressing.

Soup, salad, or sandwich. In that order.

Soup and salad are the same thing, just with a different ratio of solids to liquids.

I guess it depends on the language, in my native language I think all foods could be defined as either a salad or a soup (even a sandwich is just a kind of soup)
