Talk:Popover

message: I suggest a link to some recipe sites that feature this dish and any other sites that refer to the popover's history. I want to make some of these! Ryan Prior 01:21, May 27, 2005 (UTC)
*I added a couple of links that I think could be helpful. The only restaurant where I have encountered them is Anthony's Cummaquid Inn on Cape Cod. Jagvar 20:47, 27 May 2005 (UTC)

message: Sorry but i do not see any difference to Yorkshire pudding (especially the linked recipe). The ingredients seem to be the same. Maybe its just a different name for the same thing? Especially the use of drippings from the roasting seem to be the same for traditional Yorkshire pudding. 84.190.177.125 22:54, 11 January 2006 (UTC)

message: Is there any meaningful benefit to this quotation?  It appears to me as a silly addition that adds nothing (and in fact needs a note to explain that it inverts the historical order) and at worst seems just slightly out of place in a WIki article.  I'm not about to remove it as it serves no harm, but figured I would ask if anyone knows of any importance to be added that I'm not aware of. --Human.v2.0 (talk) 22:12, 9 August 2009 (UTC)

message: While popovers can be thought of as flawed Yorkshire Pudding, I'm pretty sure the etymology comes from the popular Dutch treat called "poffertjes", which are usually served as a sweet dessert, but are quite similar in their structure.

replies: text: Do you have a reliable source for this? OED gets the name from pop + over.  And poffertjes don't seem all that similar to popovers. --Macrakis (talk) 17:05, 31 October 2010 (UTC)

message: Same recipe, same use, yet this is an American food? Sorry, I don't mean to be obnoxious, but I find the post-colonial independence wording of such articles 'a bit shit' to be honest. Some guy with a national identity crisis (like Mr. Noah Webster, dropping the 'U's for instance) decides the grub he'd been fed for years needs to be nationalised? 'Popovers' are the same thing as 'Yorkshire Puddings' merge this beastly fucker of intolerance and be done with it! The next time an American complains about 'English Food' I'm going to punch them in the fucking taint. Signed, yours truly, now piss off. 2.96.71.30 (talk) 13:22, 18 June 2011 (UTC)
thread_title:  So Popovers are basically Yorkshire Puddings? 

message: I was surprised to end up on this article, when looking for the computer/software term 'popover'. What's more, on this page there is a hatnote link to a dress called popover, but no link to the software article (which I've now added), so I couldn't even get to my intended destination via a detour.  I think a disambiguation page is needed here, rather than the current situation whereby this is the primary article and the other two are linked through hatnotes, for the reason that while the baked good may seem like an appropriate primary article for people from the USA, that isn't the case for much of the rest of the world.
