[edit] Move

I moved this page without discussion, as I do not think it is controversial. However, if anyone disagrees with me, please feel free to change it back and/or take the matter to requested moves. By far the most common spelling for the substance seems to be "rose water". That is what the American Heritage Dictionary has, as do two reference books about food. One of the books is published by the Oxford University Press, so I am guessing that there is no difference between American and British spellings. I also searched Google for both versions. "Rose water" returned websites talking about the substance, but "rosewater" seemed to mostly refer to a surname. -- Kjkolb (talk) 00:17, 25 April 2008 (UTC)
