[edit] Praise of the casserole

Casserole!! It's more than food in a fancy dish! —Preceding unsigned comment added by 206.173.230.2 (talk) 23:34, 31 December 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Retard

A very retarded "contributor" has copied and pasted the article many times while "adding" something that was already in the text. I deleted the whole repetition.

[edit] US bias

'Casserole' is a French term, and several non-US foods are mentioned as from a US viewpoint. Any objections if I rephrase portions of the article to remedy this?

Otherwise, good content. Might do a bit of additional research besides.

Moved this to a new US section. It's a start. Meeprophone 10:13, 20 September 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Citation

I don't really know how to add citations, but much of this information on this page could be verified and cited to http://www.foodtimeline.org/foodfaq.html#casseroles which is a well researched site that I came across (along with this article) while researching casserole history. —The preceding unsigned comment was added by 69.218.233.129 (talk) 19:59, August 20, 2007 (UTC)

[edit] "Hot dish"

I'd like to see a source naming "hot dish" as a particularly Minnesotan term, and, moreso, that hot dishes are a mainstay.

It currently says "quintessential", which I think is a suitable term. Maikel (talk) 16:54, 13 January 2008 (UTC)

While talking about the Minnesota section, since when are casseroles "immensely popular in all Nordic countries"? I don't think that is entirely correct. But then again, I'm not entirely sure what defines a "casserole"/"hotdish", so... but input from someone else in Scandinavia (particularly Sweden just to verify from another location) would be nice. 212.112.35.243 (talk) 00:05, 18 May 2008 (UTC)

[edit] C. O. M. -- Call Of the Mushroom

I have heard that the method of preparing a casserole by using condensed cream-of-mushroom-soup as a binding agent was devised in the 1950ies by Campbell's. Can anyone bear me out? Maikel (talk) 17:29, 13 January 2008 (UTC)
