Comments on the Article and the Dish

I love this dish, and I like the name, as well. It is hunter's steak, because it is served medium rare, and it is good, hearty fare that is not too complicated. Also, it is similar to a Swabian dish made with pork tenderloin. I see no reason for the article's snarky remark that the dish was "considered dated in 1980." Well, excuse me! I like to serve traditional favorites from my parents' and grandparents' generations, especially on tradition-steeped occasions like Christmas. It is a charming dish, a treat for all the senses, and it never fails to delight and surprise my guests.Wkailey (talk) 14:36, 24 December 2013 (UTC)[reply]

"but was considered dated by 1980..."

I think that statement needs to be removed. Yes, it is sourced - but it's a single-source, and only one person. It's not a fact, it's an opinion. I don't see any difference between that and, for (hypothetical) example, quoting Elon Musk saying "Gas powered engines are dated." I mean, right wrong or otherwise, it IS just one person's opinion. And it does indeed seem a bit snarky and not appropriate for a WP article. Lots of people, and more than a few "chefs" do not think it is dated, at all. I just don't care enough about this topic to delete it. Normally, I would. 98.194.39.86 (talk) 12:10, 18 April 2018 (UTC)[reply]
