Talk:Halo-halo

message: It is said that halo-halo was invented by Japanese immigrants/soldiers/whatever who found the Philippine climate too warm and humid. How true is this, as perhaps we could include this in the article? — Preceding unsigned comment added by 210.213.175.139 (talk) 14:01, 27 February 2006 (UTC)
replies: text: I've only seen that fact tossed out as a throwaway sentence without any actual proof.  If we can get a concrete reference before putting that in, that'd be ideal.  I'm certain a goodly portion of readers might look at that and cry foul largely because of the way history's turned out.

text: It's something perpetrated on various and sundry websites without an iota of corroborative evidence, which is why it shouldn't be included in this article without proper citation. By the way, please note my above note about signing comments, as it's good form to do so.  Thanks!  -- Miwa * talk * contribs ^_^ 06:58, 15 August 2006 (UTC)

As for the whole Japanese-origin thing ... honestly, the image of Imperial Japanese military with ice cream spoons just cracks me up inside.  So it's definitely NOT from wartime, the most likely source would be from civilians, and that's still not even worth speculating without any concrete evidence or reliable documentation. -- Miwa * talk * contribs ^_^ 10:18, 26 February 2007 (UTC)
thread_title: Japanese (or Japanese-Filipino) origins

message: Halo halo → Halo-halo – {This would keep it consistent with the usage in Wiktionary, and in the original language (Tagalog), repeated words (inuulit) should properly be hyphenated.  I had originally merged content from the latter to the former because the former had more complete information.  Miwa * talk * contribs ^_^ 20:27, 25 May 2006 (UTC)

message: There's a similar Vietnamese dessert (can't recall the name) which should be added to See Also. It involves some kind of white bean, evaporated milk, jelly, and crushed ice. Ben Finn (talk) 20:51, 15 November 2015 (UTC)
