Saw this and sat for a second, thinking "okay, vanilla bean and soy bean...that's only two. Milk isn't a bean. What's the third?"

I'm an idiot.

Ditto! Coffee bean for anyone else still pondering.

I sipped on my coffee as I pondered the question and still couldn't solve it. Work harder, coffee beans, work harder!

Coffee and vanilla aren't actually beans. Soy is though.

A coffee bean is a seed from the Coffea plant and the source for coffee. It is the pip inside the red or purple fruit. This fruit is often referred to as a coffee cherry, and like the cherry, it is a fruit with a pip. Even though the coffee beans are not technically beans, they are referred to as such because of their resemblance to true beans.

OK I did my own search

The coffee fruit, also known as a coffee cherry, houses the coffee seed within. This seed is what we commonly refer to as a coffee bean. However, botanically speaking, coffee is not a true bean but rather a seed.

Seems kind of generic, to me.

A vanilla soy latte is not a 3 bean soup! There is only one bean actually in the soup. Unless you are scraping the vanilla pod into it and sprinkling grounds on top, the other two “beans” are merely extracts.

It is a vegan bisque.

Your mom’s a vegan bisque.

She's an inanimate fucking object!

Seriously underrated movie

[–] dontpanic@lemmy.blahaj.zone 9 points 6 months ago

I agree with your premise, and here is some additional unsolicited information:

Vanilla ‘beans’ technically are fruit from hand-pollinated orchids! So scraping a seed pod or using extract makes no difference. It’s never been a bean.

Coffee ‘beans’ are seeds from the fruit of coffee trees and shrubs.

More of a juice than a soup really.

Why juice more than soup? None of the fruits are squeezed. Except maybe soy, not sure how soy milk is made. Anyway, for vanilla and coffee it's closer to tea than soup or juice. Also, closer to soup than juice as well, imo. Or broth if you wanna be specific. Right? Since it's an infusion like broth is. That's how I see it, at least. Maybe I'm nuts

There's a fatty base: soy milk

A flavorful broth: coffee

And spices: vanilla

Maybe not 3 bean but I count it as soup.

[–] BubbleMonkey@slrpnk.net 1 points 6 months ago

Broth, surely.
