West Asia hyperlink in the 'Around the world' section should be removed

In my opinion, the West Asia hyperlink in the 'Around the world' section of this article should be removed to maintain consistency within the article as no other tabs in this article have hyperlinks in their title. Xboxsponge15 (talk) 19:29, 6 May 2020 (UTC)

Good call, I think. I took care of it. In general, we don't wikilink section headings per MOS:HEAD. I'm not sure we need the "West Asia" phrase at all, given that Middle East seems straightforward, but I'll leave that for someone else to sort out. Larry Hockett (Talk) 19:38, 6 May 2020 (UTC)

The image appears to be too narrow to display the word "Homemade" in full. What can be done about this? JIP | Talk 19:39, 30 August 2020 (UTC)

Etymology

Repeated vandalism from January 2008 and November 2012 has inserted nonsense into the etymology section that has never been removed. Correcting. --Mindset615 (talk) 14:32, 17 January 2021 (UTC)

5PM?!

Why is the time for lunch in the opening section given as "around 5PM", when the times given in every other section of the article ranges between 10AM at the earliest and 5PM at the absolute latest? Surely giving the average of around 12PM to 2PM would make more sense?

The source cited for the 5PM number (which I don't actually see in the Google Books preview) even says lunch is a meal consumed in the early afternoon, which seems to contradict the number being cited.

I appeal to everyone's common sense: Restore lunch to its rightful time.
