Copy under "Kruidnoot"
[edit]For some weird reason, this page is also (slightly different) available via http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Kruidnoot (url is intentional, because wiki-link gives the expected result). If you click Wikipedia's "Article" button on that page, you get to see the Pepernoot article/page.

- Agreed. This page is very doubtful to say at the least. Some facts: Kruidnoten are in fact pepernoten and vise versa. Kruidnoten is the 'newspaper term' for pepernoten. They are both the same and considered the same by the majority of the Dutch people. Their ingredients are the same as 'speculaas': Flour, brown sugar, butter, pepper, cinnamon, ginger, cloves, cardamom, nutmeg. The cookie-like treats are small, round and have a crispy texture.
- There are only a few Dutch people (mainly living in the western part) who THINK that pepernoten are not the same as kruidnoten. They THINK that pepernoten are of the same kind as 'taai-taai', as depicted in the photo. But as stated, this is not considered to be an absolute truth for the majority of the Dutch. In addition to the merge, the page 'Kruidnoten' should also be redirected from 'pepernoten' / pepernoot. SaksischRos (talk) 03:24, 28 December 2017 (UTC)
Proposed merge
[edit]This article should be merged with Pfeffernüsse, since its the same thing. No need to have two articles. (80.203.136.139 (talk) 21:42, 11 November 2014 (UTC))
Agreed. See above. SaksischRos (talk) 03:28, 28 December 2017 (UTC)
- That might be a good idea. However the new article should be called Peppernut as we would no longer be discussing a typically Dutch or German cookie but an international one. In this case we should use the English name instead of local versions (and in any case the Dutch Sinterklaas tradition makes it a much more important cookie in the Netherlands than in Germany - so if we go for a local name there seems no reason to favour German over Dutch).
