I don think phulka is roti,it is infact another form of bread,its like saying rusk and french rolls are the same.
I think the last sentence (about "balloon bread") of the Name section is not clear - do westerners call naan that, or do they call roti that? - Red Plum 18:03, 3 July 2006 (UTC)
I think that the article on Roti and the article on Chapati should be merged together. They both essentially refer to the same thing, with Roti being the word used by Hindi speaking and other people from Nothern India and Chapati being the word used by English speaking people of India or other regions of the world.

[edit] Bake
Is there a source that Bake is just a Guyanese thing? I'm pretty sure it's just as common with Trinis. --Mista-X 05:23, 10 December 2006 (UTC)
[edit] Bake
I originally started this stem form a West Indian food section that appeared on here. I was writing on how roti is different and similar other flour based food we make.
I'm not sure why Mr. X removed my writing on Bakes from the Guyana section and grouping it with Trinidad and Leeward Islands. Do your own writing Mr. X, please. Maybe you should start a section on bakes?. I'm sure you can come up with a few words of your own.
From what I have lerarned about Indian food I also agree that chapati and Roti are different things.
West Indian Roti and Indian roti and very different. Not to put anyone down, but from what I know, if someone gave and Indian roti to a Guyanese, it would be thrown in the garbage, and the person would be told that they don't know how to cook.
agreed. chapati and roti refer to two very different types of bread-based food, from where i come from. (i'm malaysian)
Chapati and roti are completely different things, they cannot be merged to maintain the sanctitity of the article !
I think these roti and chappathi are different. I'm from tamil nadu where chappati is different from North indian roti. our chappathi is thick than north indian chappathi. but in north indian restaurent s, i couldn't find any diff between roti and chappathi.. 21:41, 21 June 2007 (UTC) Siva from chennai
[edit] Roti Prata/Canai eaten by drizzling condensed milk?
I'm very familiar with Roti Canai/Prata eaten in Malaysia and Singapore, and while they are eaten sometimes with sugar, I have never seen it eaten with condensed milk - it is just not the traditional nor the popular way to eat roti canai/prata, at least not in Singapore or Malaysia. More often than not, roti canai/prata is eaten with Indian curry.Atticuslai 06:48, 24 May 2007 (UTC)
[edit] Dahl rotis
Shouldn't there be something about dahl ala roti? I'm not exactly sure how to spell it, so I was hesitant to make the addition to the article...

[edit] Merge Roti/Chapati
In India, Roti and Chapati refer to the same food. Not sure what's the context in other countries. rahul (talk) 23:38, 14 April 2008 (UTC)
