Talk:Hash brown
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Should 'Homefries' really redirect here? Where I come from (Boston, MA), homefries and hash browns are two different dishes. - Rikoshi 11:12, 2 January 2006 (UTC)
- Good question... Where I'm from, they're awfully similar. Depending on how different they are in Boston, the two articles might end up getting merged in the end anyway. ~Topaz♪♫∆ 11:16, 2 January 2006 (UTC)
[edit] Home fries pictures
Since this article is about hash browns, the main (and so far, only) picture on the page should not be one of home fries (which, as I note above, are different dishes in at least some parts of the U.S.). Also, the food item in question was most certainly not French fries.
Perhaps a seperate article on home fries should be created? Rikoshi 23:03, 6 January 2006 (UTC)
- They are similar enough (and, in some areas, the names are equivalent) that it would probably end up as the same article.
- However, you're right about the photos. Pictures of various styles of hashbrowns/homefries should be on this page (the deep-fried McDonald's things, shredded potatoes, and diced potatoes). I'll see what I can do (although hash browns are rare in rural NH). -- Kaszeta 13:22, 13 January 2006 (UTC)
Why is there a picture of tater tots?? Those aren't hashbrowns... T-1 14:40, 4 September 2006 (UTC)
