sucre bleu edit

Supposed to be French. Not in French Wiktionary (they have the rare oath sacrebleu). SemperBlotto 09:13, 28 December 2006 (UTC)Reply

Looks like a mistake made by someone who knows a bit of French, but not enough. Google reveals this is the name of various shops selling confectionery in Paris, Montreal and possibly elsewhere. — Paul G 11:26, 28 December 2006 (UTC)Reply

This saying is typically used in English speech. With that in mind, should the language still be listed as French? Look at sacre bleu for instance, that lists the language as English. I have also added cites. sewnmouthsecret 15:25, 28 December 2006 (UTC)Reply

Blue sugar? Must be a misspelling or jocular.. Cynewulf 08:27, 29 December 2006 (UTC)Reply

Probably jocular and deliberately so, given the number of hits that are sweets shops. --EncycloPetey 22:45, 30 December 2006 (UTC)Reply
