Untitled

I was more interested to know in which country the Falooda originated in. I thought that it had originated in Persia now called Iran ...

Untitled

Is it really necessary to quote someone as describing Falooda as "The worst fucking thing"?

I agree. It may be the worst f@cking thing in the world, but it's unnecessary to include this unreferenced quote. Applejuicefool 16:06, 21 September 2006 (UTC)[reply]

WikiProject class rating

This article was automatically assessed because at least one WikiProject had rated the article as stub, and the rating on other projects was brought up to Stub class. BetacommandBot 17:55, 9 November 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Merge

I oppose the proposed merge because, while they have similar names and are historically related, they are not the same. Faloodeh, the Persian dessert, is not a drink, for a start. Munci (talk) 21:24, 20 August 2010 (UTC)[reply]

I also agree. They're completely different. Many Indian dishes originated in Persia but have evolved through time. South Asian persian inspired food is not a subset of Iranian cookery. Pidog99 (talk) 08:11, 30 November 2010 (UTC)[reply]

There is an error in this article. Falooda is essentially not a drink in India or Pakistan either. There is a drink that incorporates falooda which seems to be called falooda also. I don't think it's available in North India or Pakistan. Seems to be an innovation from Bombay that's spread into some regions. However, there are other reasons to keep the articles distinct. As far as I know, the Falooda-qulfi combination, the usage of falooda in idiomatic language, etc are all specific to the subcontinent. It has a distinct history. Most Indians and Pakistanis have no idea that falooda is of Persian origin, anymore than the Irish think of the potato as a South American thing - it is considered totally native to the subcontinent. --Hunnjazal (talk) 15:08, 16 February 2011 (UTC)[reply]

I have arranged both articles so that no merger is needed. Xufanc (talk) 08:59, 7 August 2011 (UTC)[reply]

I agree, no merge. However I do think it is good to include the history and relationship between the two to show the difference. Jooojay (talk) 06:54, 12 June 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Noodles

Currently this article says the noodles can be made of wheat starch and it has a citation with a dead link for this information. I have never seen wheat-based noodles used since they have gluten and get soggy. Can someone find a more reliable citation for this? Or can we remove it, if not? I have looked and I am not finding it. Jooojay (talk) 06:29, 12 June 2017 (UTC)[reply]
