thread_title:  alternative name 

message: i think it is an urban legend that toffee or caramel can pull out fillings because i have eaten a lot of toffee, caramel and other similar sticky sugar-substances and i also have more than 10 fillings (perhaps due to eating so much caramel...) and i have never had one pulled out even a tiny bit, also i have never heard of anyone who has had their fillings sucked out by sticky toffee.
i haven't changed the article, but if someone wants to remove that or at least change it to say it is an urban legend. whatever
: One (possibly both) my parents have lost fillings to toffee on at least one occasion.  I guess its just a matter of how firm the fillings are. 212.159.79.130 (talk) 23:25, 29 October 2008 (UTC)

thread_title:  Hammer? 

message: There are separate pages for taffy (candy) and toffee.  I always thought this was a different spelling/pronunciation of the same thing, allowing for regional differences of recipe. Are there people who eat both "taffy" and "toffee" and can explain the difference? Currently bth articles "See also" to each other but don't explain what the difference is. jnestorius(talk) 20:40, 29 July 2006 (UTC)
replies: text: Acutally, there are some recipies for chocolate Taffy out there, although I don't really know if it's commercially sold. A quick google of "Chocolate Taffy" can verify this.204.101.159.34 12:12, 5 April 2007 (UTC)

text: I cannot verify this, but I believe the difference is that toffee is caramelized, whereas taffy is not. NightBear (talk)  —Preceding undated comment added 03:45, 30 June 2013 (UTC)
thread_title: Taffy vs Toffee

message: I think toffee is just sugar and butter heated until the soft or hard crack stage, depending on the temperature, so it forms a thick paste that is cooled down. Water can be used to mix the sugar and the butter. Milk is used to make fudge. —The preceding unsigned comment was added by 84.203.0.210 (talk) 01:02, 15 February 2007 (UTC)

thread_title:  Failure of Neutrality 

message: This section is about a discussion whether a headnote "Not to be confused with tofu" should be here, and whether a headnote "Not to be confused with toffee" should be in the article Tofu. --D.M. from Ukraine (talk) 19:58, 24 August 2012 (UTC)
replies: text: I propose for this item do be decided by native English speakers living in English-speaking countries (better from several such countries). They should estimate whether it is easy to confuse tofu with toffee (speaking in English and living in an English-speaking country). --D.M. from Ukraine (talk) 19:58, 24 August 2012 (UTC)

thread_title:  Caramel 

message: Where on earth does any of that information come from? Saskatchewan is not mentioned anywhere in the article, nor is the "creator," who is not cited anywhere else. The other stuff may be disputable to some degree, but as this is the infobox, the highly suspect "region" and "creator" need immediate review. Tranquilled (talk) 02:06, 25 October 2016 (UTC)

message: Consistent with several users commenting above, administrator Dlohcierekim agreed that this article has become a "vandalism magnet", and sensibly set up several months of protective measures to quiet things down. The details are
here. Hope for the best. —173.68.139.31 (talk) 21:34, 12 February 2019 (UTC)
