Talk:Parfait

French origin, but Japanese picture?
Its great and all that the Japanese have their own version, but shouldn't it be relevant to have a picture with a French version of the food? — Preceding unsigned comment added by 65.214.33.188 (talk) 15:47, 21 August 2012 (UTC)

Japanese parfait
This food type seems to be popular in Japan. Perhaps someone with more knowledge could add a section about this? 85.222.86.6 (talk) 13:34, 16 January 2012 (UTC)

North Carolina variant
I removed the following lines from the article: In North Carolina there is the double deck Parfait which is a blend of brisket and pastrami. It was made by immigrant Carlos Guzman Solorzano who decided to mix the foods for a reunion of the Raleigh Gay Men United Society.

This is such a bad joke. When you google "Raleigh Gay Men United Society", this shows up as the only article (plus a few others who copy/pasted from wikipedia. 85.222.86.6 (talk) 13:37, 16 January 2012 (UTC)

WTF?
Invented in 1982? I was eating parfaits at Dairy Queen as a kid in the mid 60s, surely they are much older than that. Gimelgort 01:59, 9 January 2013 (UTC) — Preceding unsigned comment added by Gimelgort (talk • contribs)

Need to clarify
Would the author like to clarify what is 'parfait cream' as mentioned in the explanation of an American Parfait? Using parfait cream as an ingredient of parfaits seems to complicate the understanding of the same. Further, there are several understandings of the word parfait cream and not one of them is absolute. May we know your understandig of the term parfait cream? — Preceding unsigned comment added by 27.106.99.235 (talk) 04:15, 22 December 2013 (UTC)

How does a parfait differ from a pate?
I came here to find how a chicken liver parfait differs from a pate, but there is only information on ice cream desserts, which I had never heard of. Could someone who knows add information on the savoury. MidlandLinda (talk) 21:04, 31 December 2013 (UTC)


 * I believe a pate is more of a savoury meat paste, and parfaits are... well as far as I know they are like a layered ice cream dessert, or maybe a cream dessert - but definitely not a paste.
 * I find the resemblence between pate and parfait a little hard to see, although the page does have an image of this foie gras parfait... which I assume would be savoury (but also less normal anyway) Iamthinking2202 (talk)` —Preceding undated comment added 02:16, 3 June 2019 (UTC)
 * What are you on about? The savoury pate-like parfait is very well known in western cuisine and perhaps more frequently eaten than the dessert. It's misleading if not outright incorrect to not have an about template as well as a see also link to chicken liver parfait.  Tu rk ey ph an t 19:14, 11 March 2024 (UTC)
