[edit] Notability

This really needs to go to Wikibooks for the cookbook in that it is mostly a recipie; does it have enough cultural significance to stay here? (Was it bigger in the 1960s because there were more big dinner parties then? Or was there a more general fasicination with "Alaska" and things named for it in the lower 48 then because it was new as a state?) Rlquall 04:28, 9 Dec 2004 (UTC)

Baked Alaska is still served on many cruiseships, especially on Alaskan cruises. I looked this up out of curiousity of the ingredients after returing from such a cruise and I think the article should stay to assist those similarly curious. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 71.193.252.225 (talk • contribs) 09:35, 27 August 2006

[edit] Sugar

Where does the sugar get added in the recipe, it isn't listed! —Preceding unsigned comment added by Nodmonkey (talk • contribs) 21:49, 5 July 2005

[edit] Frozen Florida

If there is not a link to Frozen Florida, it should probably be dropped. Not sure that it is a valid item or a joke. —Preceding unsigned comment added by Aarenz (talk • contribs) 16:13, 1 February 2006

[edit] Trivia?

The single piece of trivia under the Trivia subsection needs to be either expanded or deleted completely. If nothing happens in 48 hours, I'll take it upon myself to delete it. Matthew 20:54, 20 February 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Reference?

The is a problem with the referance. I will fix it but if it is supposed to stay like that ok. You have 24 hours or I will change.--Williamaiman 19:38, 5 August 2006 (UTC)

[edit] chinese invention of baking ice cream in an insulated shell

I find this difficult to believe. Nine tenths of the chinese population is lactose intolerant. Where is the motvation to make such a discovery 67.183.74.204 (talk) 20:53, 15 December 2007 (UTC).
