Salo in Chocolate
editI swear I saw a scan of Salo in Chocolate wrap on an internet forum. I got a strong impression that a Ukrainian factory indeed makes such a food (not much as much for eating as a novelty gift) abakharev 11:38, 4 February 2006 (UTC)
- I heard of that one too. However, while searching for it in Ukraine I found no trace of it and none of my friends could confirm this... Halibutt 14:06, 19 February 2006 (UTC)
- This is a candy. White-filled chocolate candy. --195.98.170.130 (talk) 17:50, 17 February 2008 (UTC)
Guys, visit "Lalka" restorant in the basement of Puppet theater in Lviv. Salo in chocolate is served there. I never heard of any other places like Odessa.--Bryndza 00:28, 20 February 2006 (UTC)
Peacekeeping suggestion
editAbout edit comment: "(de-russified and added a pic :))"
Halibutt, bearing in mind recent Russo-Polish tensions, it would be really helpful to avoid jokes that may be interpreted as an outburst of Russophobia. Especially bearing in mind that there was nothing specifically "russian" in the article. It was 100% ukrainian context.
In particular, you "deukrainified" it by removing the reference to horilka. It was an intolerable insult to our Ukainian neighbors. mikka (t) 23:45, 19 February 2006 (UTC)

Webcomics
editDoes anyone want to expand the List of webcomics with the Salo in Space [1]? So far this list is hopelessly biased towards Anglophonic ones. mikka (t) 01:08, 20 February 2006 (UTC)
Salo, solonyna
editCan someone precisely describe the difference between salo and solonyna (I think solonyna is slabs of side bacon; also relevant: bekon, smalets’, tovshch)? —Michael Z. 2006-02-20 08:33 Z
I think the only difference is that solonyna is more narrow meaning for salo. Since salo can be not only salted, but also smoked, solonyna is only salted salo. Also smalets'=tovshch (tlushch), but smalets is melted from salo, it is never called salo. Backon - is salo with layers of meat. It is called shponder in Ukraine. There is special backon-stimulating diet for pigs known.--Bryndza 14:02, 20 February 2006 (UTC)
And bochok?--70.54.94.117 23:15, 11 September 2007 (UTC)
- In Czech bůček is usually roasted, having been raw before roasting. It consists of about 50% of meat and 50% of fat, I guess. --Bohusz (talk) 23:33, 30 December 2007 (UTC)
The word slanina in Czech refers to something consisting of fat and meat, so it's closer to bacon. The fat tissue alone we call "špek". Both can include skin, but slanina usually don't. And slanina use to be more smoked. --Bohusz (talk) 23:33, 30 December 2007 (UTC)
In Serbo-Croatian the word "slanina" means bacon. Fat alone would be referred to as "salo". 22:47, 15 August 2013 (UTC) Jule — Preceding unsigned comment added by 109.165.239.96 (talk)
In reference
editI've heard the obsession with сало be called "саломазохизм" (salomasochism). It makes sense, the masochism part, because too much of it is very bad for the body. But I thought it was funny. Can that be added somewhere under "Salo in popular culture" maybe? —Preceding unsigned comment added by 71.32.122.235 (talk) 23:00, 23 April 2008 (UTC)
- no, unless you supply a reputable reference. `'Míkka>t 00:22, 24 April 2008 (UTC)
"Underskin fat"
editIs this intended to mean fat deeper than subcutaneous fat (i.e. visceral fat), or the fat directly below the skin (subcutaneous fat)? Having no experience with salo itself, I am not in a position to determine what it actually means, but I think that linking it to adipose tissue isn't really helpful at all, at least while subcutaneous fat and visceral fat still have their own articles. ~XarBioGeek (talk) 21:35, 17 June 2008 (UTC)
- The term "underskin fat" refers to subcutaneous fat, but it may be enough to say salo is made from either fatback or pork belly. Those two articles explain what those cuts of pork consist of. I have edited the article. --Una Smith (talk) 05:44, 14 August 2009 (UTC)
Salt Pork
editIs salo pretty much the same as salt pork? The two articles should probably mention each other. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 98.212.174.229 (talk) 22:53, 19 August 2009 (UTC)
Salo is not a russian traditional food —Preceding unsigned comment added by Andriy Derkach (talk • contribs) 17:16, 4 December 2010 (UTC)
Salo is traditional for South Russian Cuisine (Central Black Earth Region and Don Region). — Preceding unsigned comment added by 95.179.69.210 (talk) 15:03, 15 July 2011 (UTC)
Move the different languages down a bit?
editThe current version of the article begins by listing the word(s) for salo in thirteen (13) languages, even before explaining what it is.
Would it perhaps be more readable if we moved the sections about different words to the section about different varieties? - Tournesol (talk) 12:25, 23 January 2011 (UTC)
