Need etymology

[edit]

Need etymology of the word "gazpacho." Badagnani (talk) 02:38, 29 December 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Good luck with that. There are virtually NO good sources for that so it's not likely to ever be added in a way that would last before someone reverts it. SentientParadox (talk) 18:54, 15 April 2018 (UTC)[reply]
Well, the article on Spanish wikipedia has a subsection describing some theories about possible etymology (with sources). Ngfio (talk) 21:22, 23 November 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Nation origin

[edit]

On here it says Spain/Portugal on the official soup article it says Spain, as I do not know the origin of the soup someone who does must sort this is out for the good of the people. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 109.154.26.170 (talk) 03:16, 28 December 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Potato?

[edit]

I have always heard (in the US) that it is a basic cold POTATO soup, or as VP Dan Quayle spells it "Potatoe" — Preceding unsigned comment added by 2601:1C2:4E00:2100:9D88:6D48:F277:11DF (talk) 10:48, 11 February 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Gazpacho v Gestapo

[edit]

2/10/2022 Republican Marjorie Taylor Greene is the center of discussions on Twitter today, February 10, thanks to one of her recent remarks. “Not only do we have the DC jail which is the DC gulag, but now we have Nancy Pelosi’s gazpacho police spying on members of Congress, spying on the legislative work that we do, spying on our staff and spying on American citizens” — Preceding unsigned comment added by 2601:1C2:4E00:2100:9D88:6D48:F277:11DF (talk) 10:55, 11 February 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Marjorie Taylor Greene's accidental reference to gazpacho soup has been removed from this article. I have to reluctantly agree that's the proper thing to do, as this incident is unlikely to be more than a minor footnote in the long list of odd, troubling, and inciting remarks MTG has made in her short yet controversial political career. The Hamburger article makes no mention of Trump's delightful "hamberder" comment when serving the popular food item at the White House, despite it being more famous and the hamburger article being significantly longer.
But the reference to the Red Dwarf episode in which gazpacho forms a major plot point seems like a keeper. I vote out with MTG, in with RD! Who's with me, cold soup fans? FrankForAllAndBirds (talk) 07:22, 12 February 2022 (UTC)[reply]
No, unless you have a reliable source for that. OhNoitsJamie Talk 17:08, 12 February 2022 (UTC)[reply]

trivia

[edit]

Hey, @Neishnosh! The original edit wasn't disruptive, it was trivia. The edit warring is what's disruptive. Please stop and let's discuss. Valereee (talk) 17:08, 26 June 2023 (UTC)[reply]

@Neishnosh fix ping. Valereee (talk) 17:08, 26 June 2023 (UTC)[reply]
@Neishnosh, seriously, do not revert again without coming here first to talk. Valereee (talk) 17:23, 26 June 2023 (UTC)[reply]
