Talk:Mämmi

message: I would argue that the SAMPA for mämmi should not state that the double M is a result of syllable boundaries but a geminate, unless there's a counter arguement to that.  Maybe that should be changed? --Alcarilinque 18:04, 30 Nov 2004 (UTC)

message: Hi, I hope there's no offence to the original author but I've ended up doing a wholesale "clean up" and edit of the article!  I'd only intended to "anglicise" the English.  But I've ended up reorganising the article, adding recipes, references and providing more links.  I've also deleted some references for instance to porridge that were incorrect.  I would have liked to delete some more but I've added the "WEASEL" TAG regarding the sections that still seem unfounded e.g. around the reference to Samanu as I can find no justification for it either on this page or on the Samanu page.  The two dishes are made out of different ingredients, one from wheatgerm (not flour) and the other from rye flour and no information on preparation is given so there is no justification for drawing the conclusion that they even share similarities in this.  I suggest that if no data can be provided to back up the supposed similarity then the notes in both places suggesting there is one should be deleted. Anyway, I hope you approve . . .

message: I think I've mellowed.  Would anyone object to taking out the weasel tags, maybe with a bit of toning down?

replies: text: I agree that the weasel tags are a bit extreme. Even though it's true that some of the statements are going to be impossible to source, I think most of what is being said is commonly held to be true, and adds a very important aspect to what mämmi is, and how it is viewed both in Finland and abroad. For example the part about Finns enthusiastically offering it to foreigners; I can think of at least 3 TV shows I've seen where fun is poked at innocent foreign visitors who cringe at mämmi being offered to them. I even recall something on MTV where the pop singer Anastasia declined a taste saying "I don't eat chocolate." Mämmi and unsuspecting foreigners just go together like bees and honey. ;) I'm rewording a couple of the statements and removing at least one weasel tag. Arcades (talk) 21:45, 5 May 2009 (UTC)

message: Really? It's found in abundance in supermarkets for a few weeks around Easter, but I have never seen or heard of anyone who eats the stuff in any other time of the year nor seen it sold in, say, June or January. It is very much still an Easter specialty. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 91.145.79.221 (talk) 07:25, 7 August 2010 (UTC)

message: I would change the first sentence, since Good Friday is quite the opposite of Easter, and the cooking of Mämmi (as a fasting dish) is directly linked to that fact. Or is it nowadays typically eaten at Easter day itself?--128.176.125.4 (talk) 19:31, 26 April 2017 (UTC)
replies: text: It's eaten in the whole general time period around Easter. This is just nitpicking. I'm removing that clarification needed tag. oatco (talk) 01:17, 6 January 2021 (UTC)
