Comments[edit]

I've never seen a "knackwurst" served like this - and I'm German!

The pictured item is clearly a "bockwurst" and not a "knackwurst". (I'm German too!) This picture is misleading and does not belong to this article. Also, grilling a knackwurst is possible but not very common. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 82.44.127.3 (talk) 11:43, 10 March 2008 (UTC)[reply]

As the German article points out, Knackwurst is a different kind of sausage in different parts of Germany. Internationally, it apparently almost equals Bockwurst or Frankfurter. I agree that either knackwurst is rarely (and probably should not be) grilled. --Kräuter-Oliven (talk) 08:52, 20 August 2008 (UTC)[reply]
Yes, the German article points it out correctly. The picture of the American example however looks less than a Bockwurst and more like a typical Austrian Knackwurst. While both are somewhat similar they are not the same. An Austrian style Knackwurst is closer to a Frankfurter in its taste and texture than a Bockwurst. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 46.245.203.165 (talk) 12:27, 29 November 2014 (UTC)[reply]
Is this an example of the word 'knackwurst' meaning something different in various countries? I recently purchased some knackwurst from a German couple in the United States and it looks very similar to what is pictured. Maybe someone from Germany can supply a 'correct' photo? --Orwellian Python (talk) 14:37, 18 October 2008 (UTC)[reply]
Right. This is what I know as a knackwurst.Kar98 (talk) 00:47, 8 June 2009 (UTC)[reply]

I'm not sure about wikipedia's citation policy, but is this a decent cite for the popular culture reference? I'm pretty sure the British show chose a Knockwurst because it sounds like a rude name for breasts in British English. http://www.bbc.co.uk/programmes/b007bgqz 86.134.30.17 (talk) 23:51, 6 February 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Wrong picture[edit]

The second Picture (German Knackwurst in a fresh and natural casing) is not a Knackwurst. This is liverwurst/liver sausage and you cannot call liverwurst knackwurst. Meat spread cannot be Knackwurst.

Knackwurst: From the sound when the sausage cracks. Source: http://en.wiktionary.org/wiki/Knackwurst — Preceding unsigned comment added by 93.221.77.193 (talk) 15:45, 22 December 2014 (UTC)[reply]

There is a difference between north and south Germany. In northern and middle parts of Germany, a "Knackwurst" is similar to Rohwurst etc. In South Germany and Austria a "Knackwurst" is similar to Bockwurst, Wiener etc. In South Germany they have f.e. Regensburger and Wurzen which are similar to that what North Germans would call Knackwurst. German wiki has pictures of a "Berlin kind Knackwurst" and an austrian one. German food laws also allow a "Knacker" which means a lot of different kind of sausages of both north and south german "knackwurst"style. The sausage on the second picture here seems to be "Leberwurst" or maybe a "Stadtwurst" and neither north nor south germans would call it Knackwurst ManfredV (talk) 07:50, 22 May 2015 (UTC)[reply]
