Portal

Hi. Please refrain from spamming the Philadelphia portal template on articles that are only tangentially related to the city. While it's acceptable to use on articles relating directly to the city, putting it on articles like Pretzel, Hoagie, and Stromboli is taking things too far. Thanks. - EurekaLott 04:10, 21 July 2006 (UTC)[reply]

I really want to assume good faith about your post, so before I take offense at your use of the word spam I am going to post my justification. The article is listed under Category:Philadelphia cuisine, and features Philadelphia in the article. Philadelphia is an eating-town. The portal is appropriate. --South Philly 13:02, 21 July 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Stromboli vs Calzone: Sauce in or out?

In practice, I've noticed that Stromboli's usually contain pizza or marinara sauce, while calzones are accompanied by a separate dipping sauce and no sauce inside the calzone itself. I have no idea how to confirm this, aside from looking up recipe's online, but what sort of authority do online recipes represent? So for the moment, I'm asking around for opinions.

My experience has been just the opposite. Here in Toronto, calzones (sometimes called panzarotti) generally have tomato sauce inside, while stromboli has no sauce inside and comes with a dipping sauce. Although some places do larger calzones/panzarotti and serve them on a plate with sauce poured over top - in this case, there usually isn't any sauce inside. -- GregClow 19:18, 27 November 2006 (UTC)[reply]

I have had stromboli from many places and have never seen it with sauce in it. 24.58.44.178 07:22, 6 December 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Being from Jersey, I'm actually surprised at the number of people that disagree with you. We have a fairly large Italian American population, and my strombolis always have had sauce inside. I'm used to calzones being without sauce, or having some on the side. I suppose it depends on the area. I'm on travel and ordered a boli tonight that came sliced; it had sauce inside and on the side. Also, I've always eaten bolis by hand, calzones with a knife and fork. -Asia1281- (talk) 04:36, 1 June 2009 (UTC)[reply]

stromboli?

in italy i haven't never heared this type of food. --83.190.227.253 02:03, 25 June 2007 (UTC)[reply]

I'm italian and i confirm: this "stromboli" is neither a "classical" nor tipical food (and not a regional food). Maybe it's an american-italian restaurant invention or an idea of some restaurant in Italy, but it's not a "tipical" product in italy. Pizza is everywhere from south to north of italy, and so for the "calzone"; recently you can find something called "rotolo" and "roll-up" (sigh...); "rotolo" is like a calzone, "roll-up" something is made of piadina stuffed with something and ... rolled up! :) ... but not for "stromboli".Wikit2007 14:00, 14 October 2007 (UTC)[reply]

ahahahah è vero ma che roba sarebbe lo stomboli? —Preceding unsigned comment added by 62.10.146.186 (talk) 00:00, 4 December 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Picture

Here is a picture of one. Maybe I will replace it at a future time. But anyway, Stromboli does not have sauces in it - its more like a baked sandwich.— Preceding unsigned comment added by 75.90.166.40 (talk • contribs)

I feel like the second picture is unnecessary, not only is the stromboli itself very messy looking, the image is also a little blurry- the first image is sharp and professional looking- for an article this short I feel that one image is plenty.

I' m Italian....

Sorry but We' ve never hearnt about "STROMBOLI" in Italy...

Is anyone actually claiming that people in Italy eat stromboli? Oh, I suppose there's that sentence about people who think it was invented in Stromboli. I think it's fairly well-understood that stromboli is not a food eaten in Italy (even if it comes under the heading of "Italian cooking" in the US-- see also American Chinese cuisine). The Wednesday Island (talk) 20:02, 28 August 2008 (UTC)[reply]

it's an old world Italian food, probably roman in origin. It's like certain other Italian things Italians don't eat anymore. Markthemac (talk) 19:05, 17 June 2009 (UTC)[reply]

History and the movie comment.

To claim provenance of fact based on when a movie was, or was not playing in a theater is pretty poor evidence, considering that in the 1950's, many movie houses played movies from earlier years, anyways. In 1982 I was in Kansas, and a local theater was showing Star Wars.

I realize that some may be emotionally and monetarily invested in "the first" anything, but I don't think Wikipedia is the place for VAGUE aspersions relating to the originality of a term. —Preceding unsigned comment added by Apostlethirteen (talk • contribs) 15:50, 3 March 2008 (UTC)[reply]
