[edit]Dont merge the two, they are simular but different. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 64.254.62.2 (talk) 20:32, 6 November 2008 (UTC)
This might be a source: Real Finds.--65.197.19.246 (talk) 13:46, 13 December 2007 (UTC)
I cast my vote for a merger of the two. It seems the designation is based on shape of the final food object and both share the same dough and filling recipes with the shape being regional based.

Runza in Argentina
[edit]In Argentina, people of Volga German descent call this "Pirok" or "Kraut Pirok".

Don't merge. Runza is a restaurant that serves a similar food. Bierocks should have their own wiki page.
Hello, I would say don't merge them. My family has made and enjoyed Beirocks for at least three generations and we have never heard of "Runza." —Preceding unsigned comment added by 163.231.6.69 (talk) 20:55, 15 October 2008 (UTC)
"My family has made and enjoyed Beirocks for at least three generations and we have never heard of 'Runza.'" --likewise. Please, leave them separate. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 24.220.144.221 (talk) 04:24, 1 November 2009 (UTC)
Bierocks and runzas are actually different. The bread is prepared differently. The bierock has a much harder bread than the runza. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 128.114.176.8 (talk) 10:49, 7 November 2008 (UTC)
- I have had both bierocks and Runzas. I don't see an appreciable difference -- any hardness in bread, etc. varies from cook to cook. I think that Runza, the trademarked name of the bierock-type sandwich served as Runza restaurants in Nebraska, should be merged into an article on bierocks (general--> specific). 21:57, 30 December 2009 (UTC) —Preceding unsigned comment added by Ninja housewife (talk • contribs)
Trademark
[edit]It appears to be a trademark and most commonly capitalised; if so, this article should follow suit. 86.153.8.118 (talk) 19:19, 26 November 2009 (UTC)

As a Kansan now in Ne, I describe "Runza" sandwiches as bierocks to my fellow Kansans. They are the same thing, but are very Volga German. However, even Germans I have met or those with rich German heritage have never heard of bierocks. A "Runza" is a commercialized bierock. Jaredfox (talk) 01:18, 19 October 2008 (UTC) |

To add to article
[edit]To add to this article: mention, in the actual text of the article, of the fact that there are vegetarian and vegan versions of the runza. 173.88.246.138 (talk) 02:50, 10 July 2021 (UTC)
This article is about the dish, not the restaurant chain
[edit]This article is about the runza food dish. The runza was based on the pirozhok and was brought to Nebraska by Volga German immigrants, as explained in the article. After that it became the signature dish of the Runza restaurant chain. This article should not be used to promote the restaurant, and see WP:NOTADVERTISING for more information on that. Editors interested writing about the restaurant should do so at the separate article, Runza (restaurant). — Mudwater (Talk) 10:30, 12 April 2022 (UTC)
- @BR549r: Hello! You have edited this article several times -- here, here, and here -- to turn it more into a promotion or advertisement for the Runza restaurant chain. That violates the policy explained at What Wikipedia is not#Wikipedia is not a soapbox or means of promotion. The basic concept is that this is an encyclopedia, not a commercial platform. Also, this article is about the food dish, which exists independently of the restaurants. There's a separate article about the restaurants themselves, which is Runza (restaurant). That article is an appropriate place for info about the restaurants. But, there's another potential issue if you have some kind of financial interest in the restaurants. If you do -- as opposed to being "just a fan" -- you would need to declare that. I'm not an expert on that but I could help you figure out how, if you want. @Robertsky, Spencer, and Deepfriedokra: Please chime in if you can shed some additional light on this subject. — Mudwater (Talk) 21:59, 20 April 2022 (UTC)
- @Mudwater: I have dropped a {{uw-coi}} template on @BR549r's talk page. In it, there are links on how to disclose their COI. Although I think we can safely say that there is COI since their previous username is that of the restuarant's. – robertsky (talk) 01:40, 21 April 2022 (UTC)
Krautkooken (called a Runza in Neb.)
