The snack I mean, not the article. --293.xx.xxx.xx (talk) 19:48, 28 November 2007 (UTC)Reply

The look even worse close-up, but taste surprisingly good. Alas, Wikipedia is probably too formal to mention such trivia. =P 130.234.5.136 (talk) 11:36, 18 February 2008 (UTC)Reply

Actually in episode 5 of the Gosick anime the snack is indeed compared to shit. So with that reference it could be written on Wikipedia ;) MrMuffiny (talk) 22:42, 13 December 2012 (UTC)Reply

Name Origin?

Latest comment: 9 years ago2 comments2 people in discussion

Does anyone have a source for the origin of the name "Karinto"? A brief googling does not seem to yield any useful results. The kanji name 花林糖 given suggests "flower-forest-sugar", but if this is ateji as stated - characters used for sound only, not meaning - then there must be a foreign / other origin for the name itself?

It seems nobody knows, but there are some theories, one of them is that it comes from the sound it makes when you eat it i.e. karikari or karin. Syockit (talk) 22:43, 20 January 2015 (UTC)Reply
