Are garnishes supposed to be edible or not? Dysprosia 04:18, 17 May 2006 (UTC)

Most chefs feel that a garnish must be intended to be eaten. Some do not. Those chefs suck. 206.11.112.251 18:45, 18 June 2006 (UTC)

Yes, I know it's a short stub, but it's as bad as they come - unreferenced, original research, POV, with a poor tone.--h i s s p a c e r e s e a r c h 15:57, 24 November 2007 (UTC)

Both edible and inedible ornaments to a central food item have been used, and called, garnishes. If we're adopting a neutral POV then it seems to me it's best to acknowledge the variations in usage rather than be prescriptive. 68.175.58.77 (talk) 20:18, 28 January 2008 (UTC)

[edit] Charging same with no garnish

Is it legal to Charge the same for a dish with no (edible) garnish as with it. Say tomato or fried bread--Trammel (talk) 05:23, 25 March 2008 (UTC)?

[edit] Gornisht?

Is there a source for the gornisht etymology? I have found no dictionary to corroborate this, and, in fact, the etymology given is from old French Garnir. 141.150.214.254 (talk) 23:08, 6 April 2008 (UTC)
