[edit] Wikipedians who eat meat

Thank you for the userboxes about fruit, vegetables and sweets. It gives us a wider variety of food choices.

I am an unreconstructed carnviore. I eat 4 servings of red meat because that's what the CSIRO diet tells me to do.

What about userboxes for meat? Like goat, lamb, yak, beef, pork, chicken (I know that doesn't count explicitly as meat) and poultry like goose and duck. I'm sure other cultures have good meat as well.

And what about growing and shooting their own food? --EuropracBHIT 09:14, 8 January 2006 (UTC).

[edit] Boycott Coca-Cola

Could we get a userbox for Wikipedians who boycott Coca-Cola?Sumthingweird 16:13, 15 February 2006 (UTC)

• Yea I love coke, but every time I drink it I feel guilty because they support right wing death sqauds who kill union organizers in South America. Tiki God 17:58, 2 August 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Vegetarian

why are there two vegetarian userboxes? i think the template:vegetarian one should be deleted.

Why isn't there a box for nonvegans? Vegetarians often eat dairy and/or eggs, vegans do not. Jon138 20:03, 27 July 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Halal / Helal

We definately need a halal one for the islamic users like myself. Jackpot Den 00:45, 11 March 2006 (UTC)

Yeah. I agree, if we've got a kashrut/kosher box, we should also have a halal/helal. 惑乱 分からん 23:29, 24 April 2006 (UTC)

Absolutely. -- Olve 04:05, 25 April 2006 (UTC)

Done. Is this one OK? :) Olve 04:18, 25 April 2006 (UTC)

Not muslim myself, but had a similar idea in my head. The arabic text says "halal", right? I'm waiting for more muslim input, and leave a not on the Halal discussion page. 惑乱 分からん 10:33, 25 April 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Chocolate & Caffeine addictions

Hey we need some boxes for addictions, such as 'this user is addicted to caffeine' or 'this user is addicted to chocolate'. Anyone feel up to the task? :) Raystorm 18:16, 18 March 2006 (UTC)

Okay found them haha! Raystorm 15:36, 21 March 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Missing userboxes

A few that aren't here that might be worth adding:

• Users who eat organics.
• Users who don't drink soft drinks.
• Users who buy only fairly trade coffee and/or chocolate. -- LGagnon 05:42, 26 March 2006 (UTC)

and again, as posted above:

• Users who boycott Coca-Cola

[edit] Other Sodas?

How about "This user cant live without Sprite"? Or "This user likes root beer"?

Cherry Coke

[edit] Ethnic/Cultural Foods

How about foods from different cultures from around the globe? Any suggestions? I'll think of some userboxes to come up with to demonstrate what I'm talking about. If you're interested as well, leave a message on my talk page. -- Taus33 22:06, 11 May 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Jalepeno is a fruit

Jalepenos are a fruit. It's just that most people don't notice the sweetness or vitamin c because they are running for a glass of milk. :) Tiki God 17:58, 2 August 2006 (UTC)

just fixed it --Ted-m 02:29, 8 August 2006 (UTC)

[edit] scotch whisky

could someone add some userboxes for scotch whisky and specifically Highland Park Single Malt? --Ted-m 02:29, 8 August 2006 (UTC)

[edit] non-fish eater

could someone make a userbox for people that don't eat fish/seafood? it would be appreciated, and i know how much people love to be appreciated by me

[edit] New Logo for liking milk in tea first

When I looked at the logos under tea, I saw there was not one for Wikipedians who like to put the milk in first. As a die-hard milk-in-tea first person myself, although I do appreciate that people have different views on this, I think that construction of such a logo could lead to interesting discussions in the Wikipedia community!

[edit] Tofu?

can someone make a tofu userbox or something like that?Yells at soup 19:10, 13 November 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Advertising

Isn't the use of commercial brands on user boxes a kind of advertisment? I thought advertisments are banned on Wikipedia, at least for the time being, and even if they were allowed, aren't the company supposed to pay for them? And one more question - the guidelines for user pages state that they should deal only with issues related to Wikipedia in one way or another, and/or give a brief introduction of the user. Most of these boxes don't qualify for these guidelines, so what's the point on having those guidelines? drork 02:27, 5 January 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Suugestion for userbox

Maybe this is already a userbox (or one similar), but can one say "THIS USER LOVES FOOD!" Yes, in caps....---"THROUGH FIRE, JUSTICE IS SERVED!" 19:37, 26 January 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Organic!

Please make a BOX for people who eat / drink organic? And one that looks good please, not one that has a tiny picture that no one can understand what it is because of such a low resolution... Thanks!

[edit] Fast Food

In N Out userbox ...thats all i have to say  :)

[edit] Can I add my self-made userbox? (Well, half-borrowed. But all's fair in love, war & the GDFL, eh?)

What do you guys say? Are there rules for this kind of thing? Quantum Burrito 01:27, 13 July 2007 (UTC)

Unfortunately, I don't think that Wikipedia would allow that, mostly because of the profanity used in it.

[edit] Cleanup?

Is it just me or does anyone else think the foods section needs cleaning up... perhaps a few more subheadings I think are needed because the first part is definately getting a bit long. Perhaps dairy, and snacks, I think a pizza section may be necessary. There seems to be quite a few pizza Ubxs. Perhaps even a 'comedy' section (for those green eggs and ham ones...).

[edit] Userbox

I didn't see a userbox for hating spinach, so I wanted to know if I could put that in.

[edit] No Love For Texas

Not a Single box for Texan Cuisine, How Sad, I guess I'll just have to make some, We got Dr. Pepper, we need Corndogs, Chili, Fritos, Frito Pie, Deep Fried Anything, Texas Pizza (Hard Thin Crust like mexican Pizza, Chili, Fritos, every meat you can think of, some other things all deep fried), and so on. Arkkeeper (talk) 21:29, 15 April 2008 (UTC)

[edit] Would like to see userboxes for Sprite soda.

WOuld like to see userboxes for Sprite soda, and unfortunately, I do not have the time to create one myself. Help by creating one for me.Chris Batchelor(Byankno1) 23:42, 16 May 2008 (UTC)

[edit] Just so you all know...

Hi, I'm Editor510, I'm part of Wikiproject Userboxes and I invented flavoured userboxes. I'm just saying, if you have any ideas, e.g. chilli peppers, corn dogs, Coke, whatever you want your userbox to taste like (no drugs, please be a bit decent!), put it down, 'cos I'm not doing the work for you!

LOL, i hope I don't sound stingy,

--Editor510 (talk) 19:14, 19 May 2008 (UTC)

P.S. If you do any drink flavoured ones, first you may do beer but you can't describe being drunk, and second, add it to the drinks section. have fun thinking up flavours!
