[edit] Origin?

AFAIK the cold beet soup is called "Chlodnik litewski" in Poland. `'mikka (t) 19:11, 10 October 2006 (UTC)

"Chłodnik litewski" means "lithuanian chłodnik" Piotrek91 20:37, 7 November 2006 (UTC)
"Saltibarscai" means "cold beets" or "cold borscht". Dr. Dan 20:22, 22 March 2007 (UTC)

"Šaltibarščiai" doesn't mean "cold beet". It means "cold borsht".


"Its national names are derived from the fact that the soup is cold and is best served cold." Well this soup is not intended to be served hot (or warm). I think the last part of the sentence is a nonsence.
