Talk:Sweet and sour

message: Sweet and Sour is also a term used in the alcoholic beverage industry to refer to a citrus juice and sugar blend used for mixed drinks such as margaritas, whisky sours, and many others. This term should not automatically redirect to the food term, or the food term should be edited to incorporate the beverage term. Generuda (talk) 15:44, 15 January 2008 (UTC)

message: "Sweet and sour sauce is known by many Chinese, particularly those in rural areas of north-east China, as 'the people's sauce'. This is due to its cheap production costs. It was distributed by the Chinese Communist Party during the Cultural Revolution, adding to its image as a part of Chinese culture." ???
I am from north-east China and I have never heard anything like that. In fact the sauce is not even common in this part of China.  — Preceding unsigned comment added by 130.88.171.5 (talk) 12:18, 1 April 2012 (UTC)
replies: text: I live in the Northeast of China and I have not heard the sentence you quoted by I will research it. However, sweet and sour style dishes are well known in the north east. In particular the dish Guo Bao Rou is a sweet and sour dish made with small thin steaks of pork rather than cubes. Rincewind42 (talk) 02:59, 8 February 2013 (UTC)

message: Merge Guo Bao Rou into this article. Rational: Guo Bao Rou is a form of Sweet and Sour dish common in the north east of China. However, Guo Bao Rou is not notable in itself. The article is an orphan, stub and lacks references. The information in the Guo Bao Rou page could be satisfactory covered by the Sweet and Sour article. I don't think Wikipedia needs to have separate pages for every minor local variation on the Sweet and Sour theme. Rincewind42 (talk) 02:59, 8 February 2013 (UTC)

message: Merge Sweet and sour chicken into this article. Rational: Sweet and sour chicken is a minor variation within the sweet and sour theme. Wikipedia does not require a separate article for every single possible sweet and sour dish e.g. shrimp, pork, beef, chicken, salad, etc. The information on each of these pages would mostly repeat that of the other articles. The article Sweet and sour chicken is a stub and lacks references may not be notable other than as part of the wider sweet and sour topic.Rincewind42 (talk) 03:42, 8 February 2013 (UTC)

thread_title:  Link to Dutch Wikipedia 

message: Hey I don't know how to do this, but i suggest whomever does could add a link to https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Peen_tong when describing the ingredients in this sentence : " The late renowned chef from Hong Kong, Leung King, included the following as his sweet and sour source sauce recipe: white rice vinegar, salt, Chinese brown candy, ketchup, Worcestershire sauce, and dark soy sauce. " It kinda sucks having to do an outside search to find out what chinese brown candy is when there's a page for it already  — Preceding unsigned comment added by 2600:6C54:7B00:61D:F500:3E58:87C:15F3 (talk) 00:29, 22 February 2019 (UTC)

thread_title:  Is it too much to ask for a simple article on sweet and sour sauce? 

message: We currently have an article called agrodolce which claims that "Agrodolce is a traditional sweet and sour sauce in Italian cuisine". This is incorrect. Agrodolce is simply the Italian for sweet-and-sour. There is no specific "sauce" to make a dish agrodolce, it is just the combination of sweet and sour flavors. 
Therefore we should merge that article into this one -- and also improve the quality of that article! --Macrakis (talk) 22:44, 2 May 2020 (UTC)
replies: text: Support the merger. It would be a good idea to merge Agre dulce here as well. --Melsj (talk) 06:44, 13 June 2020 (UTC)
