A note

in deciding how to spell "ful medames", I did google searches for the following combinations:

	ful	foul	fool
medames	1020	287	1250
moudammas	10	858	13
moudamas	0	113	15
mudammas	1170	301	67
mudamas	10	81	14

Then, I summed the rows and columns, deciding that "ful" and "medames" are most common, even though the combination isn't. MisterSheik 01:59, 16 July 2005 (UTC)[reply]

Speaking of which: Someone has changed the spelling to müdemmis, which is peculiar to Turkish pronunciation and orthography. I can't see how that could be justified for a dish that notably belongs to Arab cuisines, not Turkish. However we decide to spell it, the spelling needs to reflect the word in Arabic only. Let me go and correct that.

P.S. For what it's worth, the transcription in Wehr is based on Egyptian dialect: "mədammis." Also, it should be obvious why the spelling "foul" won't work in English. Johanna-Hypatia (talk) 19:09, 7 March 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Edited the article and essentially rewrote the second paragraph. The paragraph was poorly composed and the information (regarding the etymology of "ful medames") seemed to have been pulled out of nowhere.

Falafel

Falafels are made out Chick Peas not fava beans. Abdullah Geelah 17:53, 5 August 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Actually it depends. Most people seem to make homemade falafels with chickpeas, but at least over here restaurants usually serve fava bean falafel (which I find more tasty). DiamonDie (talk) 12:55, 19 December 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Ta'meyya and felafel aren't the same thing. Ta'meyya is made with fuul, felafel with hummus. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 41.232.56.63 (talk) 20:59, 6 December 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Picture

Can we find a picture that doesn't include incorrectly cooked eggs? These have a green layer surrounding the yolk because they have been incredibly overboiled. I can smell the sulfur from here. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 99.241.140.140 (talk) 02:37, 16 March 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Hello, there you go, two pictures of Ful from Haleb that I took. Anyone can use them as he/she wishes:

Herodotus citation

Since it runs so strongly counter to both earlier and later information, it would be particularly welcome to have a specific citation from Herodotus' writings to document his assertion that Egyptians neither grow nor willingly eat beans. --Haruo (talk) 22:56, 4 April 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Mashed or not?

I don't know anything about this topic, but as a curious reader following a link, the first thing that confronts me here is a contradiction. The description in the first sentence clearly says it is a dish of "mashed fava beans" but the image directly to the right is clearly of a dish full of intact beans. --Ericjs (talk) 02:31, 17 June 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Ethiopian Ful

Ethiopian fuul is normaly served with bread, not injera. I may be able to supply photos supporting this assertion.
