[edit] Beefroot

The author claimed it's a "rare vegetable" and "herbivorous creature". Is it related to Beet? I can't find more info on the net. Probably hoax. Delete and sent to BJAODN. --*drew 01:21, 25 October 2005 (UTC)

• Delete - possibly intended as a pun on the NZ (and elsewhere?) name for beets - beetroot - but this is a hoax. Ziggurat 01:29, 25 October 2005 (UTC)
  • NZ, Australia, UK, South Africa... most of the International English speaking world. Grutness...wha? 02:29, 26 October 2005 (UTC)
• Delete and cook thoroughly as a hoax. Eddie.willers 03:17, 25 October 2005 (UTC)
• Speedy Delete as patent nonsense. "Beefroot is a rare micronesian vegtable...or is it? The rare micronesian beefroot or Bubulus Radicula in scientific terms is often considered nonvegetarian because of its bovine nature." A bovine nonvegetarian vegetable?

• As 202.156.6.60 (talk • contribs) has just stated, this is made up from whole cloth. Delete. Uncle G 11:08, 25 October 2005 (UTC)
• WP:-) material if ever there was any. — Haeleth Talk 21:11, 25 October 2005 (UTC)
