[edit] Leftovers
Hi, I'm not part of this project, but I thought it might be nice to let active participants know I've added some real content to Leftovers to replace the redirect to recipe, which didn't have anything related to leftovers at all. (I was shocked when I discovered I couldn't find any real info on leftovers at all.) I also moved and edited the doggie bag info from take-out, where it didn't seem to fit, and changed a bunch of redirects appropriately. The new article is a bit stubby and can use some cites, but is a good start, I hope. -dmmaus 04:57, 19 May 2007 (UTC)
[edit] "Comestible"
Why bother with a synonym for "edible" that's 1000 times less common?

[edit] Merger proposal
As Portal:Cooking and Portal:Food are pretty much the same thing except in name heading and the Food Portal is a featured portal that is updated on a regular basis and the Cooking Portal has all but been abandoned, I propose any relevant information be merged into the Food Portal and the Cooking Portal be changed to a redirect to the Food Portal.--Chef Christopher Allen Tanner, CCC 19:00, 5 November 2007 (UTC)
- I would support this merger if the portal became "cooking & food"...since there are definite discussions in each topic that are distinct from the other (examples include politics of food, history of food (separate of cooking processes but more focused on culture). --Ryandwayne 20:51, 5 November 2007 (UTC)

- I think putting "cooking and food" is unnecessary as it gives equal emphasis to cooking, when "cooking is something you do to food", you do not "do food to cooking." I can see your argument if it was the "culinary portal," as Culinary history is clearly different from Food history as we study them in my Masters degree program in Gastronomy, but clearly again, one can not have "culinary" without food. We can have food without culinary though, just as we can have food without cooking, but we can not cook without food (I think I made sense in there somewhere).--Chef Christopher Allen Tanner, CCC 05:35, 6 November 2007 (UTC)
- I'd support this. I also think that cooking is a subset of food subjects, and doesn't need to be underscored as such, just 'Food' remaining the title would be fine with me. --Thespian 05:21, 6 November 2007 (UTC)
- Support, as creator of the cooking portal. The food portal is better (and better named). — Chris ( t c ) — 06:49, 6 November 2007 (UTC)
- My anime side says: Food topics, MERGE into Super Portal! ^_^ (you have to yell that or it doesn't work.) - Jeremy (Jerem43 07:40, 13 November 2007 (UTC))

- never mind, you did it already - Jeremy (Jerem43 07:43, 13 November 2007 (UTC))
