Removed ¨Chimichurri is known as the ketchup of Argentina¨. How? By Whom?

Chimichurri origins

I have just inserted references that prove the chimichurri sauce was "born" in Argentina, and therefore is an argentine sauce. However, it is known that the sauce is eaten in other countries. --El rrienseolava (talk) 00:14, 7 August 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Lede

The lede poorly describes the sauce, beyond "it is a green sauce, and sometimes it is not." Are there any ingredients that define the sauce -- garlic and parsley?? — Preceding unsigned comment added by 76.190.244.215 (talk) 15:02, 13 November 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Origin of the term

The source provided shows that the word was used as a nickname in the 18th century. This proves nothing about the origin of the term in relation to the sauce. Saying this discredits any of the stories below constitutes original research and goes against the rules of Wikipedia. (WP:NOR) All you can say from the links provided is that the word was also used as a nickname in the 18th century, but you cannot say that disproves any of the other origins for the term unless you can find a source that makes this connection. 190.245.89.52 (talk) 01:13, 5 December 2011 (UTC)[reply]

OK, I plead guilty to OR here. However, there are lots of sources better than the current blog entry (!!!) which do call these Jimmy stories "legends" or otherwise cast doubt on them ("Hmmm."). Remember, WP:V does not require that we credulously accept everything we read on the Web or in cookbooks. --Macrakis (talk) 16:50, 5 December 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Agreed. I do think these explanations are not satisfactory and likely just folk tales, but we can't assure there is a connection with someone nicknamed chimichurri in Colombia unless there is a source for such a connection. So I think the current writing, where all sides are presented without judging the validity of one over another, is best. 129.132.211.189 (talk) 15:24, 6 December 2011 (UTC)[reply]

It is worth noting that the Moroccans make a sauce with a very similar recipe, called 'charmil'; the similarity of the words as well as the recipe is fairly striking. I would say there is some possibility of an etymological as well as culinary relationship. Moroccan/Arab immigrant origins?jackbrown (talk) 21:58, 15 May 2014 (UTC)[reply]

Chimichurri in Israel

Do you think I should add that chimichurri is used in Israel? I know a chain of burger restaurants in Jerusalem that uses chimichurri, which is the reason I familiar with this amazing sauce. pastasauce (talk) 19:00, 17 December 2012 (UTC)[reply]
