[edit] Food for politics

What is this nonsense about the dish being restricted to or prevalent in Bosnia and Herzegovina? It is common in Croatia, Serbia, Slovenia, Macedonia and all the other former republics of the FRY. Are you going to make a political issue out of food?

It's a dish commonly associated with BiH. True or false? True. If you were to pick the republic most commonly associated with it, which one would you pick? BiH, because it has the most inherent link to Ottoman heritage, and ćevapi is one of those things. --Joy [shallot] 14:42, 22 August 2005 (UTC)

Additionally, if there ever was such a thing in the terms of POV, it must be who cooks the best food! One may think the best dish is made in Sarajevo or Stari gradi on Hvar (my personal preference) or by ones mother, but that is hardly encyclopedic stuff! Asav

But the reputation of Baščaršija and Banja Luka ćevapi is positive fame - at least here in Croatia. This isn't a matter of expressing opinion, it is statement of fact - many people think that it's these ćevapi that are somehow the best. --Joy [shallot] 14:42, 22 August 2005 (UTC)
Having said that, I'll try to merge the two versions. --Joy [shallot]
I ate ćevaps in Baščaršija and Banja Luka and I can say that they are not diferent from those made in my hometown Novi Sad. Maybe it cause we have a lot of Bosians here lately ^^ 81.18.55.28 23:52, 29 May 2006 (UTC)

Where ever it comes from... It's delish.

Please, everybody knows the Lekovacki rostilj (cevapcici from town Leskovac) is the best. The name cevapcici does not even exist in Bosnia. The dish spread in Croatia first on Adria coast because of enormous number of tourists from Serbia. 20-30 years ago, I doubt that you could get a portion of cevapcici in Zagreb.

They used to sell this where I live and I loved it, but then they stopped selling it for some reason. I haven't had Ćevapčići since about 10 years ago! KingIvan 02:04, 28 January 2007 (UTC)

They have cevape in Zagreb, in a place called Bannja Lucke Cevape (english: Cevape from Banja Luka)

It's kind of annoying that some nationalists won't even let Bosnians have their own food/dish. I guess you have to start somewhere if you totally want to eradicate a people and its culture. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 82.174.235.245 (talk) 14:08, 17 February 2008 (UTC)
