Anpan wagashi?[edit]

Very few (zero I guess) Japanese people would call "anpan" or "kakigori" types of "wagashi". I have made a list, List of Japanese snack food, which gives lots of different snacks like this, so I suggest removing these names from this article and putting a link from this article to there. I hope this is acceptable. --DannyWilde 23:24, 8 October 2005 (UTC)[reply]

I removed "anpan". --Nightshadow28 07:17, 7 July 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Congrats[edit]

This page is about a million times better than when I worked on it months (years?) ago. Congratulations editors! brain 00:18, 10 July 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Suama?[edit]

I've read several times on the Wikipedia articles about Cardcaptors/Cardcaptor Sakura that there exists a snack called "Suama". It is only mentioned in those articles and in an article about Tarepanda, so I don't know anything about it; however, the pictures I saw when I Googled it look quite similar to the first image in this article. So I would like to know -- is Suama a type of wagashi? If so, can someone who knows anything substantial about Suama please add it to the list? Thanks. 24.150.196.215 (talk) 20:06, 2 August 2008 (UTC)[reply]

It is currently extremely difficult to verify facts in this article[edit]

There has been a banner at the top of the page for nearly 4 years, requesting more inline citations for all the facts presented in this article. But there are so few references at all here. I tried to verify a few things, such as the Rin Jōin story of sweet dumplings, etc. The article offers nothing, and web searches for some of the facts also turn up nothing. Quite concerning, really, since Wikipedia requires reliable sources for *everything*. Anyways, I'll do what I can... I will start to tag a few specific things inline as "citation needed", in hopes that someone can follow up. --Ds13 (talk) 04:20, 7 November 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Seiobo link[edit]

It directs to a wiki article of taoism. Is the name of the wagashi correct? — Preceding unsigned comment added by 189.173.81.2 (talk) 05:52, 22 July 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Definition?[edit]

I've re-read this multiple times, and it has much good information in it. However, I'm confused by the most basic level of what is wagashi as opposed to any other Japanese dessert. Based on what's in this article, the term doesn't seem to just mean sweets in general, but it clearly doesn't mean just one type of sweet/dessert. It would be useful to see information that explains what differentiates wagashi from other types of sweets / desserts. Thanks in advance! 10:37, 1 February 2024 (UTC) 138.88.222.3 (talk) 10:37, 1 February 2024 (UTC)[reply]
