Aqueous proteins

edit

I do not think the term aqueous proteins is used correctly in the History section.Swmmr1928 talk 02:11, 12 July 2011 (UTC)Reply

I agree. Any change in wording would be appreciated. "Aquatic meats"? "Water-based animals"? Elizium23 (talk) 02:39, 12 July 2011 (UTC)Reply

'American Cuisine' would literally mean, 'cuisine from the Americas'. Wouldn't 'Cuisine from the U.S.' be a better name? — Preceding unsigned comment added by 200.60.249.191 (talk) 02:13, 11 August 2011 (UTC)Reply

It should be noted that the above anonymous comment was made by a Peruvian, who is imposing the conventions of their primary language (Spanish) on the English language. For all native Spanish speakers that may read this, please understand that "American" does not immediately mean "Of the Americas" as it does in Spanish. The English-speaking world—as well as much of the non-English speaking world—does not share your view of the New World as one single continent, but as two distinct continents. —75.23.208.183 (talk) 03:52, 31 May 2012 (UTC)Reply
Thump. The word "American" in the English lexicon is still ambiguous. Wikipedia can't be that one-sided. Hitmonchan (talk) 05:57, 9 September 2013 (UTC)Reply
