[edit] Merge?

Think there's an argument for merging this with Asparagus FlagSteward 20:10, 25 September 2007 (UTC)

Yeah, this should probably be a sub-section of the Asparagus article. Spargel should redirect to that particular section in the main article. Peaceoutside 22:15, 9 October 2007 (UTC)

It should be merged - unfortunately I am not fluently enough in English to do it. Plehn (talk) 17:47, 6 April 2008 (UTC)

[edit] "Eastern Europeans"

It's true that much (most? --- I don't have any numbers) of the German Spargel is harvested by seasonal workers from Eastern Europe, by and large, they used to be from Poland, but since it has become part of the European Union, they come from farther east, IIRC. However, the sentence "spargel is usually harvested by people of eastern-european descent" somehow sounds to me as if the ethnicity of the harvesters confers a peculiar taste to the product. I considered phrasing it differently, but I'm rather certain that the information isn't relevant to the article at all. So I just deleted it. Clmeier (talk) 13:43, 9 June 2008 (UTC)
