"Citation Needed"

One citation for the lack of cheese in the original quiche recipes could be The Joy of Cooking, By Irma S. Rombauer and Marion Rombauer Becker. My edition from the '70s has almost these exact words. Heimmdall 21:14, 26 February 2007 (UTC)[reply]

"Make me a quiche!"

I removed the following doubtful-seeming anonymous addition, pending some independent verification of it:

In Britain, a popular saying among teenagers is "Make me a quiche!", usually used as an unorthodox greeting. The standard reply is "Bum!". It is unknown, where this phrase originated from.

In any case, the relevance to quiche is minimal. -- Dominus 11:15, 6 January 2006 (UTC)[reply]


It is a real phrase, honest gov'nor. - A random cockney. The preceding unsigned comment was added by 213.249.155.239 (talk • contribs) 11:49, 11 January 2006.

Note that the paragraph in question was added by 213.249.155.237 (talk · contribs). That account is probably related to the anonymous user making above comment, and both have repeatedly engaged in vandalism. -- Solipsist 13:11, 12 January 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Make me a Quiche is an actual phrase, i have hered it been used before too. (Anon.)

Maybe in the article Taxi there should be the exchange "Call me a taxi!" "You're a taxi." --Wetman 17:22, 31 July 2006 (UTC)[reply]

I live in Britain, and have done all my life. I have never heard of this "make me a quiche" / "bum" stuff. Of course, I am 28 now... leevclarke (talk) 03:04, 9 October 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Image

I moved the second image to the right side of the page and made it smaller. It was too distracting when it was in the middle and took up half the page. 69.40.252.181 20:12, 28 July 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Good call - I can't think why no one had noticed and fixed this earlier. -- Solipsist 16:47, 31 July 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Pissaladiere

Removed "Without eggs, an open-face onion tart with anchovies and black olives is a pissaladière niçoise, a relative of pizza." as irrelevant. The article starts by saying quiche is primarily eggs and pastry. Pissaladiere has no eggs, and should be bread dough. Not related to quiche, most likely imported by roman cooks during the Avignon Papacy. David, Elizabeth (1999). A Book of Mediterranean Food. London: Grub Street. p. 38. ISBN 1902304276. {{cite book}}: Cite has empty unknown parameter: |coauthors= (help)

Of germanic origin?

I've found this article[1] that attributes the origin of quiche to the Germans. Should this be worked-in somehow?
