Notable[edit]

Are Bugles really notable? Have they been mentioned in press articles or scholarly works outside of the food industry? Have they been mentioned in popular culture? (yes! Scrubs) Are they notable simply for their perceived ubiquity in vending machines and their unique shape? Was that last sentence Original Research? If Bugles are notable, so are many webcomics whose articles have been deleted. After all, Wikipedia is as much NOT a snack food guide as it is NOT a guide to the Internet. And if it's notable enough to warrant an article, can we PLAESE get a picture of Bugles' bag / logo, and a picture of the food itself? --205.201.141.146 17:32, 16 April 2007 (UTC)[reply]

The answer to most of your questions is "yes".

Now, can we get back that popular culture section? 80.217.111.45 (talk) 04:59, 12 June 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Bugles are more notable than your existence.  — Preceding unsigned comment added by 75.136.244.242 (talk) 19:16, 7 June 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Picture[edit]

Could someone manage to not eat a Bugle long enough to take a picture of it? :P Nave.notnilc (talk) 22:00, 15 November 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Photos of Bugles and a package added. Geoff ^T ^C 16:40, 1 May 2009 (UTC)[reply]

no. just no[edit]

they are not available in the UK. if they were I would have at least 6 crates of them. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 86.17.221.246 (talk) 19:56, 28 July 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Just wondering[edit]

Has anyone ever looked closely at a bugle snack? Has anyone noticed that it looks more weaved (like a basket) rather than smooth? Surely, if the original concept had been a bugle, it would have been created smooth. Could it be that it was first meant to be a cornucopia basket. They would have called the snack "cornucopias" with a tag line like, 'the snack with "plenty" of "corn". Just a thought..... Wikicoop99 (talk) 15:43, 25 February 2012 (UTC)[reply]

It's shaped like a bugle... so they're called Bugles. I really don't think they need to have the precise form and texture of the namesake. If you're going to go down that road... are Funyuns shaped like fun? 192.54.250.11 (talk) 20:59, 11 October 2013 (UTC)[reply]

I'm calling BS on the handshake thing...[edit]

Okay... unless somebody can cite a source about that "secret handshake" with the president line at the end, I'm calling BS on that. Please remove unless a reliable source can be cited. 192.54.250.11 (talk) 21:02, 11 October 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Relevance of Eddie Tuvin? Agree that the handshake thing needs a citation; unsure why Eddie Tuvin is mentioned in this article at all... irrelevant to Bugles? If a figure in his own right, then this info should link to his own page.Kdevans (talk) 11:18, 14 October 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Rollout in which country? Sold in which countries?[edit]

Article says Bugles were introduced nationally, but does not say in which country or countries; I'll remove the word until someone can clarify it.

It would be also interesting to clarify which countries ever had them, or do have them now. Benthatsme (talk) 00:02, 9 November 2014 (UTC)[reply]

Move discussion in progress[edit]

There is a move discussion in progress on Talk:Bugle (disambiguation) which affects this page. Please participate on that page and not in this talk page section. Thank you. —RMCD bot 19:19, 22 March 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Requested move 30 March 2021[edit]

The following is a closed discussion of a requested move. Please do not modify it. Subsequent comments should be made in a new section on the talk page. Editors desiring to contest the closing decision should consider a move review after discussing it on the closer's talk page. No further edits should be made to this discussion.

The result of the move request was: Consensus to move. I am going to temporarily target the dab to disambiguate links, and then will target to Bugle as there is consensus that it's the primary topic. (non-admin closure) (t · c) buidhe 21:10, 6 April 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Bugles → Bugles (snack) – "Bugles" in GBooks overwhelmingly refers to bugles. Per Necrothesp in discussion above. In ictu oculi (talk) 17:17, 30 March 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Support I was tempted to just file this move alone though the other generic topics like the plant and animal noise convinced me. Redirect to Bugle (disambiguation) as a compromise per WP:NOPRIMARY and WP:PLURALPT but the snack isn't primary. Crouch, Swale (talk) 17:48, 30 March 2021 (UTC)[reply]
Support - The musical instrument is obviously the primary topic. HumanBodyPiloter5 (talk) 06:25, 31 March 2021 (UTC)[reply]
Support and primary redirect Bugles to Bugle. The instrument is very often seen in the plural. -- Necrothesp (talk) 12:46, 1 April 2021 (UTC)[reply]

The discussion above is closed. Please do not modify it. Subsequent comments should be made on the appropriate discussion page. No further edits should be made to this discussion.

Incoming links[edit]

@Buidhe: Will you also be pointing the incoming links to the new title, rather than the dab page? —C.Fred (talk) 21:16, 6 April 2021 (UTC)[reply]

C.Fred I sorted the links so that the ones referring to the snack (most of them) target the snack article and the rest go to the bugle article. (t · c) buidhe 21:24, 6 April 2021 (UTC)[reply]
