My local supermarket sells a store-made sauce for almost everything, and
they include those sauces in recipe cards on the counter near the other
ingredients. Roast beef "au jus" - needs a container of Wegman's ready to
serve au jus. Some cooks will consistently buy the product. Others might
run
across the words "au jus" somewhere else, like a restaurant menu or
cookbook, figure out it's a generic term, and make their own. So what? Has
the store sinned by tagging its name onto "au jus" in a recipe?

When did you turn into chung's clone? I have never mentioned "sin"
anywhere. Do you feel you have to stoop to putting words in my mouth
to win something that you have already lost?

I backed up my statement that it does happen. I made the case that the
online recipe industry is RIPE for this to happen, simply because it
has happened in the past.

I see you are having a mental problem over this, so, take the last
shot - I do not want to further contribute to your deteriorating
mental condition.

When you use a group of words such as "industry is ripe for this to happen",
that phrase suggests something negative. If you don't like the word "sin",
substitute something else, and then tell me why the concept connotes
negative thoughts.

BTW, dougie, if you can read, it happens right here in rfc, does it
not - why there's a thread on Cincinatti Chili with, OMG, RO-TEL
mentioned!

If too many people do mention brand names again and again, it would be
negative. L:earn to read and comprehend.

If it connotes negative thoughts, that is YOUR problem, not mine. that
usage isolated statement could be read positively. Are you always so
pessimistic?

On March 24th, you wrote this:
"Further, a lot of these sites are full of company generated recipes
you can get off their websites. They have their employees/pr staff
load them up so gullible people like you will assume that5 it was an
actual personal recommendation."

In the last sentence of that paragraph, you used a combination of words
which suggests some sort of a behind-the-scenes plot foisted on the public
by "companies". Please explain.

I already did. Am I to understand you have ADD and can not remmembe
what you just read? Remember me saying I was paid to do this at one
time?

When you have a question with some actual substance in it, please ask.

But, first, I would siuggest that you go back over the original set of
posts and re-read them in the company of someone who can explain
things to you.

You said you were paid for doing this. And, unless I'm mistaken, you're
suggesting that it's a negative thing, RIGHT? The only way you've supported
that claim is by saying that the recipes look like someone's favorite. In
fact, they ALL are. If Heinz posts a recipe, you can safely assume that one
or more humans actually tested it, and probably even asked fellow employees
to taste it. This is how it's been done since as far back as I can remember
(late 1950s), when my family entered the grocery business.

The only difference between a recipe from a manufacturer and one from an
individual is.....well....nothing, actually. One may be just as good as the
other.

I said that if it becomes too prevalent it MAY be a bad thing. Putting
words into someone else's mouth is a loser's tactic, you know.

I imagine they are all tested and employees sure can serve as guinea
pigs for the tastings. And you where what, about a year old back them?
;-> good memory you have.

Now, if Heinz puts out that cookbook, you certainly would expect them
to pitch their products over the competitors. That can be seen in any
of the "famous brands" books that are out there.

But when you put up a recipe on a web site under your own name
featuring Heinz and do not reveal that you are one of those employees
or have been paid for pitching this, it is a bit misleading, isn;t it?

Never made any statement one way or another about that. I've had some
home-cooked from Great Aunt Bessie's meals that would choke the
strongest of us. It has to do with knowing who is behind the
publication of the recipe.

A well written newspaper article (per most journalism schools) should
contain an accurate summary of the intent of the article, and subsequent
paragraphs should expand on the concept. In your previous messages, you did
thing #1, but until this last message, you really didn't do such a great job
of thing #2.

Seven, when I have my earliest memories of hanging out at the office and
watching the company kitchen action. Apparently, my memories are pretty
accurate, according to my dad.

I guess we'll have to agree to disagree on this. Pick any common dish and
you'll find a million versions of it. No matter where you find a recipe,
it's a [censored] shoot, and chances are you'll end up customizing it a little.

The quality of a dish you're tasting may have little to do with the talents
of the chef. Some people are great at following directions. If the
directions contain anything vague, such as "add pepper to taste", they lose
their bearings.

Did somebody say "not enough coffee yet"??? :-) First line should've begun
with "The first paragraph of a well written....."

Well there's your problem - I am not writing a newspaper article, am
I? Sure am not. I stressed the word "may" a couple of times. I see it
escaped your attention and you have followed up in ignorance on this
point.

Your ethical stand is not as high as mine on this point. If someone
misleads you deliberately, I don't like it - apparently, it is okay
for you to be thus mislead. Pity.

The intent of a newspaper article should be to relay news/information.
The first paragrah should answer the who, what, . . . sequence.
