Time magazine had an article, ‘Cooking by Committee: New sites try to do to recipes what Wikipedia did to encyclopedia entries. Will it fly with food?’. The article introduced us to Foodista.com and ‘the receipe section of Wikia.com‘ that:
‘allow users to post new recipes and revise existing ones any way they want forming a great burger consensus’.
Okay, we can stop there. How do YOU like your burger? Medium, rare, or as I like it ‘well to burnt’. It seems it will be difficult to colloaborate on ’single recipes’ with so many regional differences, etc. For example: barbecue in North Carolina is pork but in Texas it is beef. Heck, we can’t even decide what is the right sauce in North Carolina with half of the state preferring a tomato-based sauce and the other half preferring a vinegar-based sauce. And what are those South Carolinians thinking with that mustard-based sauce?
Should be interesting! Let me know what you think (about the recipe collaboration OR the barbecue).
