I just don't understand it.
For the last 30 years, my mum has tried to convince me that drinking chinese soup can quench thirst. How the heck can a substance, which contains salt, quench my thirst?
When I eat, I always have to have a drink available, whether it be ribena or Coke or water. My mum (with her eagle eyes!), stops me before I start drinking my drink, and tries to convince me that soup would be better.
I can understand "Tong Soi" (er, chinese sweet desert soup) in a way, but not Chinese soup!
Is it just me or does any one elses mother have the same theory?

It totally understand what your mum is talking about.
I can happily have a chinese meal (not true for english meals) without a drink if there is soup involved, as I was brought up from a young age like that.
If you had dinner at my folks' place and asked for Ribena, my mum would probably give you the evils! ;-)
