You also win the internet!

The flavor is what you get when everyone in the kitchen puts in what they want, and some get annoyed with others putting in something so they put in more of what they want, and it's supposed to come out neutral but it's a crap-shoot.

It's found in the Communal Trough in the buffet...ya know, adding everyone's contribution to the mix.

@Saving_is_fun: but, if we do see "wikipedia flavor" again and there is no tag, what then?

@TCama: can people also use it in arguements or will it be shot down right away.

@xnihilx: you read the article and then went this far into the comments for that?

@bhaughey: One of my favorite asian joints has all types of "fork" dishes. Fork fried rice and all.

Funny thing is that the menu is really, really well done other than that. color photos and all.

@Quidnam: You know I have to: I make my bear semen at home.

Although unlikely, this is the most plausible explanation yet. Seriously, how did this happen I wonder.

Yuk.

We used to go to a Chinese restaurant in West Hollywood that served items with strange names...like Robot Chicken. Apparently Seth Green ate there too. Never saw him, though. BTW, the Robot Chicken was scrumptious.

Also, if you send the dish back more than 3 times in a 24 hour period, you are temporarily banned from the restaurant.

@MostlyHarmless_Under Influenza: I speedy tagged it under A7 brisket.

@Wuhao: i need read no further. the thread ends with Wuhao. =)

Sadly I can't seem to find the image again to upload or link.

Also, some of the ingredients may be from unreliable sources. Just shout "CITATION NEEDED" if the cook tells you he got the ginger from his cousin's farm.

@bhaughey: I know people who think sabotaging a co-worker's Autocorrect function in this manner is a great prank.

@Wuhao: You win the internet! I should warn you, though, that it is very hard to clean.

Chinese writer: How does XXX translate into English?

Chinese translator: It looks like it's called Beef Brisket in Wikipedia.

Chinese writer: Thank you... [writing down "Beef Brisket in Wikipedia"]

There's a picture and some more information here: [www.chinesevegetables.co.uk]

The generic Szechuan place around the corner from my house has many dishes that come, according to the menu, "with fungus..." Although it is easy to tell their fungi come from a can :(

@Taed: This gag is too old to even be an urban legend. In the joke, it did, in fact, happen exactly the way you explained, except the parent was "an old Chinaman" and the child was "his college-educated son," and the dish was "Chicken in Dictionary sauce."

The proper English name of 花椒 should be "Sichuan pepper".

I think I know how this happened. If you're typing in Word sometimes, if you start typing a word, it will pull up something from your clipboard and paste it if you hit enter.

So perhaps "wikipedia" was pasted accidentally from "whiskey" flavor or something.

Perhaps this is a translation error. Imagine an email conversation such as this:

Parent: The new menu looks good, but I can't figure out a good English translation for . Ideas?

Child: Did you try Wikipedia?

Parent: Thanks, I'll use that.

@Wuhao: +1

@nybiker: Looks like this menu needs a disambiguation page.

Where is the "Cream of Sum Yung Goy"...?

Every bite is a little bit different. Sometimes, a bite will disappear and you'll be redirected to a non-related bite.

A few of the more discriminating customers began to notice that the flavor of the sauce varied slightly each night, as cooks removed each other's changes and added their own back in. Finally, after waiters began intentionally sabotaging the recipe to include "1 tablespoon bear semen," the owners fixed the recipe to its latest revision (sans any obvious vandalism) and ordered the cooks to submit all proposed changes in writing.

And that, ladies and gentlemen, is the flavor of Wikipedia.

I would also like to know what is U-Toy Vegetable? Or even just what is U-Toy?
