Talk:Cobb salad

message: I removed the reference to Cliff Cobb as a real descendant of the supposed inventor of the salad. The character in Curb Your Enthusiasm is not a real person but a fictional character. Judging by changes made from previous versions, I think that more of this article is probably tainted by the TV show. --96.28.16.56 (talk) 09:22, 29 September 2009 (UTC)

message: I have to say, the source cited really doesn't verify the statement made. For one, the article does not say that Cobb salad is unhealthy but that it is high in calories not really quite the same thing.  The other issue is that the article says nothing about other salads being healthier whatsoever.  —Preceding unsigned comment added by 65.189.231.75 (talk) 22:47, 8 February 2009 (UTC)
replies: text: Indeed not. It was, however, extremely helpful of them to offer up the nutritional content in "drachms" (I'm guessing that's some old-fashioned spelling for drams?) and grains. My doctor's always getting on me to not eat more than five grains of cholesterol per day. Excalibre (talk) 16:06, 9 February 2011 (UTC)

message: The claims that Robert H. Cobb owned the Drake seem to be false. I removed them. I am not sure if there is any real reason to mention the Drake, but I left those in. --SVTCobra (talk) 21:13, 29 September 2009 (UTC)

message: The picture used is a little unappetizing and is only one sort of Cobb Salad you might see out there, so here's another one. I took the photo and fully allow Wikipedia to use it as they see fit, including in advertising or selling it to evil warlords or whatever.  98.216.159.236 (talk) 01:39, 18 July 2011 (UTC)
replies: text: Nevermind. If I realized I'd need to not only make an account but then also get a certain number of edits with the account, I wouldn't have bothered. Posting, that is. I would have still bothered making the salad. It was very good. Augur Dogger (talk) 01:42, 18 July 2011 (UTC)

message: That assessment may require some adjustment.
I am 50 years of age; I came here to learn what it was, after hearing it mentioned on an American TV show.

replies: text: Was it Gordon Ramsay? In his show Kitchen Nightmares, either he always calls it "chopped salad" or I misheard it as such. Didn't know it before either. Maikel (talk) 10:31, 18 September 2022 (UTC)

message: The first paragraph and the ingredients list mention blue cheese, but the "origin" section refers to Roquefort.  Can somebody knowledgeable please reconcile this disparity? — Preceding unsigned comment added by Pgilman (talk • contribs) 00:01, 18 September 2022 (UTC)
