Yes, Cheese is a topping. So is suace or anything else on top of the dough.

Both, a hotdog is not a sandwich, however, a Hotdog in a bun is a sandwich, or a sub.

Both. Depending on how it is prepaired, ceral can definitly be called a breakfast soup. Some people eat it dry, but the same can be said for any other soup ingredenets. Some people eat cereal with water, some with milk, some with juice. I would say Lucky Charms in Milk is definitly a breakfast soup.

The fact that people eat vegetables, meat and others without being soup doesn't make them soup.

I am a little confused with that. So you can eat vegetables and meats alone, or mixed together, yet they wouldn't be a soup. They only become a soup when you add some sort of broth to them, then whatever mixture you combine is now a soup. Why wouldn't that be the same with cereal? You can have corn flakes, marshmallows, and fruits seperate, or mixed, but they don't have to be a soup. Now you add milk, juice, water, etc. and voila, it is a breakfest soup.

At the end of the day this doesn't really matter. I'm not going to get up and have a breakfast soup, it's a bowl of cereal. Until today though, I had never really realized that soup and a bowl of ceral in milk are essentially the same thing with different ingredients.
