Talk:Capirotada

other ingredients
Perhaps mention should be made of other ingredients that are typically included. I've had capirotada with coconut, potatoes, carrots, and chunks of soggy (milk-soaked) white bread. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 128.187.0.164 (talk) 21:02, 12 September 2008 (UTC)

Originas
The first cited source, which seems to be the best one, provides Spain as an origin? And the meat version seems to be called French capirotada? I'm also wondering about the name capirotada, which translates on google translate as blackcap? Candleabracadabra (talk) 23:59, 25 May 2013 (UTC)

French connection
The tale goes, Carlota, wife of Maximiliano, sent to Mexico by French dictator Napolian Bonaparte; wanted a dessert and the staff had to come up with something quick, so they grabbed what ever they had at hand: Day old French baguette Tomato Anis star Clove Raw sugar Onion Peanuts & Hard cheese. To their surprise, she loved it. Hence, a new treat was born. 2607:FB91:286:3B63:AC39:87F7:4EFA:C42B (talk) 01:06, 21 December 2021 (UTC)
