Non-notable neologism food item, with no citations. Could almost be a speedy deletion, but has lasted long enough to bring to AfD. -- Michael Scott Cuthbert (talk) 18:38, 11 December 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Author has contacted me off Wiki, admits hoax, and asks for deletion. Permission to post this email given in a followup reply. Name redacted:
Is this Michael Scott Cuthbert? If so, my name is [REDACTED], and I was the one who made the "Chulalongkorn Delicacy" Wikipedia page. No, there is no such thing as a Chulalongkorn Delicacy that is what I said it was. It is, in fact, an inside joke with my Global Studies class and my teacher. If it isn't too much to ask, please just ignore the article and we can each go on our merry ways ignoring the fact that the Chulalongkorn is not corn on the cob, dipped in caramel deep fried and served with nacho cheese.
I followed up by asking her to pass on to her teacher how little creating hoax articles helps to teach about reliability of Wikipedia compared to actually finding some errors and fixing them. Too bad it's a hoax -- it sounded tasty. Now requesting any admin to do a speedy close and delete. @DGG: @Antandrus: -- Michael Scott Cuthbert (talk) 22:07, 11 December 2015 (UTC)[reply]
