approximations
It would be interesting to provide approximations for how long the differing numbered courses typically occur. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 192.100.104.17 (talk • contribs) 13:04, 15 July 2008 (UTC)
Common saying?!
I nearly choked when I read this sentence.
"thus the common saying "from soup to nuts", meaning from beginning to end"
I have never once heard this saying in my life, was this a common saying in the 15th century or something?!

Neither have I.

I have. So has a web search. It's in a bunch of dictionaries. There are many uses in news sources. I think that, when describing a somewhat old-fashioned and obscure subject, it's usual to find old-fashioned expressions. It may not be strictly necessary, in context, for an encyclopedia article. 198.103.161.1 (talk) 19:39, 21 November 2019 (UTC)
I have heard--and used--the phrase as a common expression, amongst people of all ages and on tv. Possibly there is a cultural/regional aspect. ~~
"saladé"?
Why is there an accent on the last letter of the word "saladé"? The only usage that I know is not about food but more about fooling people with words. 198.103.161.1 (talk) 19:39, 21 November 2019 (UTC)
Limited geography
The articles as-is is very much centered on the US/UK dining habits, starting with the title. Multicourse meals in many cultures are not limited to dinner. The full-course menus are also very French-US-centric. In the European domain, the arguably most prolific multicourse eaters are Italians, but there is no mention of primi or secondi.
