*Blink* I've NEVER had goulash that tastes the way the word sounds. But
then even though I've had proper Hungarian goulash I've never heard a
Hungarian-speaker pronounce the word so maybe the word in Hungarian sounds
the way the food tastes-- given the nature of the Hungarian language I
wouldn't be surprised.

In upstate NY, goulash is a dish involving ground beef, macaroni noodles,
canned tomatoes and sometimes sloppy-joe sauce. And it still doesn't taste
like the world goulash sounds.

Are they talking about some other kind of goulash?
