    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.

      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.

      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
