[edit] confusing sentence
In current revision [1], near end of subsection "Three examples of preparation methods", is the sentence:
- Conversely, if the well is too large, the balance will be upset between the egg and too small a quantity of rice.
As I noted via inline comments in my edit, I think the last sentence in the above paragraph doesn't really make sense. Unless you make your "well" by explicitly removing rice from the bowl, the amount of rice is something you decide on before and independent of the size of the well (ie. I can make the same size of a "large" well with little or a lot of rice, given a big enough bowl). And since you mixed the egg and rice together anyway, the well isn't even there to be seen by the time you actually eat it, so even in terms of aesthetics it doesn't make sense.
I would've removed the sentence altogether, except for the fact that it counterpoints with the sentence about a too-small well leading to overflow, and that maybe someone will manage to rewrite the sentence so it is more clear. 131.107.0.81 00:36, 27 June 2006 (UTC)
[edit] Trivia
In current revision [2], near end of subsection "Three examples of preparation methods", is the sentence:
- On the 8th of August 2005 the song "kurukuru tamago gohan" was released. (Kurukuru means "thriving").
Originally the sentence was actually placed in the "Background" section but it's clearly a bit out of place with the rest of the text in that section. I edited it into its own section, but I still think the info is a bit paltry--at the very least it should say who released the song!
[edit] Dangers?
Dangers of eating raw eggs? Any mention of this? Gautam Discuss 02:39, 7 May 2007 (UTC)
[edit] Pronunciation
I don't know about anyone else, but I am not sure how to pronounce the transliteration "tamago kake gohan", and the Japanese "卵かけご飯" doesn't help those of us who can't read Japanese. Maybe someone who knows how to pronounce it could add an IPA pronunciation or upload a pronunciation ogg to the article? Shnizzedy (talk) 00:59, 21 March 2008 (UTC)
[edit] Why the big calorie chart?
Why does the big calorie consumption by nation chart belong here? It seems totally out of place. I propose it be removed. —Preceding unsigned comment added by Epsilonpilot (talk • contribs) 18:28, 3 May 2008 (UTC)
