That's peculiar.  I wonder where they got their information.  I quoted a 
dictionary definition of "chorizo" from an early 18th century Spanish 
dictionary.  Furthermore, the definition was followed by two quotes from 
Spanish literature which used the term.  One quote was from an author 
who lived 1603-1676.  The other was from a novel written cerca 1599-
1604.  Perhaps "first appeared" means that it appeared in an English-
language work in 1846?
