Talk:Avery Island (Louisiana)

message: According to the tabasco sauce article ( http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tabasco_sauce ), the local salt is not used to make the tabasco sauce, yet according to this article , it is.
so, which is it?  —Preceding unsigned comment added by 86.136.40.126 (talk) 16:10, 4 January 2008 (UTC)
replies: text: Avery Island salt is indeed used in Tabasco production, and is now sold over-the-counter to consumers for ordinary kitchen use under the brand name Avery Island Kosher Salt.  I will add this information on the Tabasco sauce page in Wikipedia.  Thanks, --Skb8721 (talk) 21:21, 4 January 2008 (UTC)

message: While Petite Anse may well be a Cajun French phrase, it is perfectly gammatical French, as spoken in Metropolitan France, l'Hexagone, where it means exactly the same thing, "Little Cove." I live in département des Alpes-Maritimes for part of the year. Not only that, I happen to live overlooking Anse de la Salis.  Dick Kimball (talk) 01:08, 4 September 2011 (UTC)

message: About the opening sentence:
"Avery Island (historically French: Île Petite Anse) is a salt dome best known as the source of Tabasco sauce."
Unless I am missing something, which I do not believe I am, this sentence as written is just plain silly. It seems to be saying that the salt dome itself is the source of Tabasco sauce.
By all indications, that is not the case, and not what was meant. The apparent intent was merely that the *island* is the source of the sauce. Which we understand to mean that the sauce is *produced* on the island. But that is not at all clear from the current wording.
A fix for this problem would be to move the information about the island's Louisiana location up from the second sentence into the first sentence. If done correctly, that fix would make it clear that the island, not the salt dome, is the source of Tabasco sauce. Toddcs (talk) 14:06, 4 January 2024 (UTC)
