Chowder VS. Soup?

Steven · **Posted:** January 14th, 2008, 11:58 am

I'm just wondering:

Chowder or Soup?

Someone might says "Soup is the same as Chowder," but guess what? No, it isn't.

Chowder is generally thicker, whilst Soup is thin and liquid-like.

So... Which do you prefer?

I prefer Chowder over Soup. Thickness is great.

Yeah, chowder for me, too. Thickness and creaminess <3

What the hell is chowder?

We have soup in England, but I've only heard of chowder once, and that was on the simpsons. I've no idea what it actually is.

In America, they make Clam Chowder which is like a thick creamy soup with potatoes and clams in it. That's about all I know about chowder.

So, um, I'm going with soup.

According to Wikipedia it's just a variety of soup.

Soup I can't say more and I don't like chowder.

Chowder.

I like thick, creamy, non-water-based soup.

Chowder is the same thing, isn't it?

Chowder, only if its Clam. I love Clam Chowder.

chowder tastes great hard to spill and easy to clean up
