Looks like shit.

[edit]

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?

[edit]

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?
