in deciding how to spell "ful medames", I did google searches for the following combinations:

	ful	foul	fool
medames	1020	287	1250
moudammas	10	858	13
moudamas	0	113	15
mudammas	1170	301	67
mudamas	10	81	14

Then, I summed the rows and columns, deciding that "ful" and "medames" are most common, even though the combination isn't. MisterSheik 01:59, 16 July 2005 (UTC)

Edited the article and essentially rewrote the second paragraph. The paragraph was poorly composed and the information (regarding the etymology of "ful medames") seemed to have been pulled out of nowhere.

[edit] Falafel

Falafels are made out Chick Peas not fava beans. Abdullah Geelah 17:53, 5 August 2006 (UTC)

Actually it depends. Most people seem to make homemade falafels with chickpeas, but at least over here restaurants usually serve fava bean falafel (which I find more tasty). DiamonDie (talk) 12:55, 19 December 2007 (UTC)
