yeah, ok. tend to agree. although i will allow a Squircle
Of course not - no explanation is necessary!!
well rounded logic

The better version of this joke
I feel like the post is better, seems like a matter of opinion
Or perhaps because it’s easier to scrape down the sides of a rounded container with a spoon?..
And to use a ladle
Get out of here with your logic; this is a 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.
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…
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.
Too dumb to meme
Because you can’t explain. Because your brain is in a round container and it has personal biases in shape preferences.
Never trust soup from a tetrapack
I don’t even possess a round container. They’re strictly less practical than rectangular ones
Bouba shaped soup

I would absolutely watch this.
Spoiler: it’s fish soup
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.
For those that need an explanation: round containers don’t have corners, but square ones do. Soup is a liquid, which means it will occupy the corner. The corners are very difficult to get liquid out of; be it with a spoon or otherwise for eating, cleaning, serving, etc… Putting soup in round containers keeps that problem from occurring.
And very difficult to scrub the grease off of
Counter argument: corners make it easier to pour accurately. If it’s a thick soup, you’re going to get strips of soup stuck to the container between the spoon strokes either way and a corner can act as a soup staging area that makes it easier to get the soup out instead of just pushing it around. And a spatula would make quick work out of either shape.
Though note that I’m picturing a rectangular container with rounded edges.
Here some soups are sold in Tertrapak cartons which I suspect would break the average American.
