isn't pewter toxic? --Originally unsigned comment by User:64.180.239.117

Not necessarily. Pewter may contain lead, but rarely does anymore. -- stubblyhead | ^T/_c 22:16, 24 April 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Apple juleps?

I remember when I was young my mother would make my "Derby Day Julep" with apple juice instead of bourbon. It was refreshing and delicious...does anyone know if this is a common tradition? JD79 17:32, 12 July 2006 (UTC)

Why is this a Louisville project and not a Kentucky project? Spacini 03:43, 25 September 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Mint Julep (Candy)

As I understand it, there is also a candy called the Mint Julep, which (unverified) is where the name for the drink came from. Should this page be changed? Should/is there a page for the Mint Julep candy? I didn't find one, though I didn't look /that/ hard.
