Toasties
Why are we talking about "toasties"? Please don't make up terms. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Albertde (talk • contribs) 20:25, 13 May 2006 (UTC)

I seem to recall a hot Dog toastee served at the LaBelle Province restaurants on Ste Catherine St in 2004. It costs 10 cents more than the steamed one. Also, I remember a Francophone I worked with at that time making a joke about a "HOt Dog Toasteé" — Preceding unsigned comment added by 198.80.153.10 (talk • contribs) 17:03, 19 May 2006 (UTC)

But a "hot dog toasté" in French doesn't translate as "toastie", just as "toasted hot dog". — Preceding unsigned comment added by 70.81.180.42 (talk • contribs) 20:36, 22 May 2006 (UTC)

Steamie & Toastie
"Steamie" and "toastie" are the English terms for "steamé" and "toasté." They are widely used -- just because *you* haven't heard of it doesn't mean it's made up. If this article does not describe steamies (or steamés, however you want to spell it) and their toasted equivalent, it is simply not complete. -- August 30, 2006 — Preceding unsigned comment added by 70.80.7.59 (talk • contribs) 03:36, 31 August 2006 (UTC)

Michigan
There is a Michigan hot dog page which should be linked somehow.

The Hot dog page also has a "around the globe" section where this page would be relevant.

Ambiguous dollar
I assume the dollar amounts given in the article are Canadian dollars and not US? This should be clarified. - dcljr (talk) 19:15, 15 October 2012 (UTC)


 * The values do not usually differ by that much (USD <--> CAD), and Montreal is in Canada, so there is context to the article, unless we assume the entire world is just the U.S. (I would also assume that Australian is meant in an Australian article, etc) -- 70.51.201.106 (talk) 09:16, 8 February 2019 (UTC)

en français
This article warrants a french version as the topic is of equal if not more importance to francophone readers - any help to translate or create a new entry would be appreciated ! — Preceding unsigned comment added by Splitpenny2001 (talk • contribs) 05:41, 29 January 2015 (UTC)

Traditional menu items at a Québecois Casse-croûte
While it may be true that many of Montréal's steamie joints make an effort to reflect in their menus the popularity of Greek culture and cuisine, this is a comparatively recent phenomena.

What troubles me in the list of typical casse-croûte menu items is the absence of traditional Québecois dishes such as the sandwich au poulet chaud, le pouding chômeur as well as other forms of 'hot dog' such as la guédille and Hot Dog Michigan. La guédille is especially notable as it was a popular meatless dish that could be served on a Friday to Québec practising Catholics who are forbidden to eat meat on that day.

I'm suggesting that the article could be of greater value if it recognised the history of the traditional casse-croûte and the menu items that set these places apart. No need to ignore the current trends, just include the historic context of these fascinating eateries.

 * Hot Chicken Sandwich... that got deleted off Wiktionary, because people were making fun of the term instead of actually debating the existence of that. They were also making fun of the traditional form by pointing out that variations on it proved it didn't exist, as if peas were not traditional. -- 70.51.201.106 (talk) 09:15, 8 February 2019 (UTC)
