Discussion from en:Talk:Mince pie

Couple of suggestions, since you mentioned you're not finished:

  • How about using either metric or English measurements throughout, but not both?
  • This isn't analytical chemistry - how about rounding off numbers like "1814 g" to 1.8 kg (or even 2 kg)?
  • Please insert a space between a number and its unit.

Thanks!  :-) -- Marj Tiefert 18:41 Aug 2, 2002 (PDT)

A couple of responces since I've finished:

  • The 'spoons are the random variable of good cooking and the metric system. Otherwise known as "Too much!", or "Too little."
  • The art of good desserts, MUST follow the strict standard of analytical chemistry. No comprimises will be allowed!
  • No.

Spot the sarcasm.=P

[edit] Modern Mince Pies more prominent

Shouldn't the meat free mince pies... the one which we all try to cook and eat at Christmas time... be at the top of the page? Surely that's the recipe which people come to this page for. -- Harry Wood (talk) 19:27, 23 December 2007 (UTC)

OK done. It's a useles recipe of course, until the links for pastry and fruitmince are filled in! -- Harry Wood (talk) 10:51, 13 February 2008 (UTC)
