abdulahi001: This is my thought!!!
When soup is heated, there is vibration between molecules of C-H bond in the oil e.g(palm oil) which weakens the cohesive electrostatic forces between the oil and keep it fairly fermented, therefore retain it's warmness very well, but when opened reverse of the aforesaid is the case.
To me those saying bacteria/fungi are wrong because at a very high temp. of 393K or thereabout, no fungi/bacteria can survive living when trapped inside.

Me thinks your soup will still get spoilt anyways even if u use a spoon to dip inside that is after warming.

lilTunechi: According to jacques hindleberth, When soup is heated to a certain degree the heat rays evaporates and locks the eminent exposure to the fish or meat inside the pot..... Uhghh, I have no idea what I'm saying.! Sorry

The only theory I know about spoons is never to leave it inside the pot. I guess this is to prevent air from going into the pot thereby allowing bacterials to form and eventually spoil the soup.

How about some kinda belief that some people (esp boys) hands spoil soup (makes it sour) if they should dish themselves while some don't. This is common among yorubas.

fr3do: Bacteria!
Yes it is mainly caused by Baccilli, Fungi and Entamoeba species.
By dipping your fingers in the pot, you have successfully inoculated the soup with microbes.
The microbes then use the condiments and nutrient in the soup as energy source for growth, Sour taste, foul smell, color changes etc are confirmations of microbial growth on soup/foods.

AdeniyiA:
two things /reasons.
the water at d bottom of the pot gets reduced because it's distributed to all other parts when stirred, so no much water at the base to continue cooking hence the burns.
Secondly, when you created a depression or a well in a cooking food, u'll discover that water usually runs there leaving other surrounding places without water therefore it starts to burn

Science! It explains everything except the supernatural.

nanizle:

warming soup will kill bacteria and fungi in it.

Putting your finger inside the soup after warming it will introduce new bacteria/fungi that will spoil the soup overnight.

Abi na?
are u sayin tat our handz are filled up wif bacteria nd fungi?

It is the GERMS in the finger that normally caused it.

The only reason or situation you dip ur fingers into d soup is to fish out d meat or other juicy stuff in it unauthorised xo d soup is sense it and get sour instantly ,else u cool or heat it to aviod such. . .anoda reason, not all soup has properties,eg egusi soup,is too reactive ,it gets sour timely,if nt cool or heated,.... All soups wit such properties ar in random motion wit there molecules contripetallinq and will nt get sour unless fingers(wic contain bacteria) and heat or cold is beinq removed frm it within a constricted time... Success to all uniben aspirants writinq their pume.
