Skiena salad

No Google hits for the topic. Not sure if its a local-interest or a certain restaurant's item? PROD (for "uncited") was removed without adding cites. DMacks 01:56, 27 April 2007 (UTC)
 * Delete... unless someone can show me what a "Skiena salad" is, this violates WP:V. -- Kinu t /c  02:16, 27 April 2007 (UTC) I wonder if it goes well with a Spanjo...
 * Delete. The article demonstrates what it is, but not only is it not notable, but it would seem that the bit talking about Big H sauce is entirely unsourced, and just sounds wrong.  -- Dennis The Tiger   (Rawr and stuff) 03:56, 27 April 2007 (UTC)
 * Delete - so, it's a salad consisting of iceberg lettuce, and an over-the-counter commercially produced dressing, which is no longer made. That's barely even a salad, let alone a notable one.  --Haemo 06:35, 27 April 2007 (UTC)
 * Delete. No Google hits, and the claim that Big H sauce was removed from sale due to its resemblance to McDonald's special sauce is implausible. --Metropolitan90 08:12, 27 April 2007 (UTC)
 * Delete as WP:BOLLOCKS quite apart from being a recipe - I don't believe for one moment that McDonalds could force something off the market for "resembling their special sauce" or there'd be no Thousand Island Dressing on the market —  irides centi   (talk to me!)  11:44, 27 April 2007 (UTC)
 * Delete. We get zero Google hits for a foodstuff the article admits cannot be made because one of the principal ingredients no longer exists, and furthermore even if it could there's no consensus on the recipe. There's no claim of historical interest (eg favourite food of the Beatles, Joe di Maggio or Dwight D Eisenhower) either. And why is it called a Skiena salad anyway?

 * Delete It's a non-notable salad. Why do we need an article on that? Acalamari 18:23, 27 April 2007 (UTC)
 * Delete per everything above. Could have speedied --C56C 18:44, 27 April 2007 (UTC)
 * Delete as per all votes above, no notability on the web, and cannot be made anymore (thus losing even more notability). Patar knight 21:11, 27 April 2007 (UTC)
 * Comment - no google hits for this salad if I remove anything wikipedia flavored (+"skiena salad" -site:wikipedia.org). Article creator has only made precisely one contribution - this article.  WP:SNOW, anybody? -- Dennis The Tiger   (Rawr and stuff) 16:58, 28 April 2007 (UTC)
 * Delete. The article does not prove the notability of the salad nor was I able to find multiple reliable secondary sources to prove notability. -- Black Falcon (Talk) 08:58, 2 May 2007 (UTC)
