Ratings...let's utilize these

• cohsmama 15 years ago
  I am so disappointed whenever I come here. Loads of recipes but a horrid rating system. Everyone gives 5 stars and often on recipes they say they haven't even tried.
  
  Can we please utilize the ratings to be helpful. If a recipe is to die for, give it a 5. If its passable give it a 3. Comment on your substitutions, suggestions and changes.
  
  Recipes aren't about making people feel good by saying 'oh, sounds good! Here's a gold star'. They are about 'HOLY COW! You have got to taste this'. Especially in the new art of gluten free cooking, honesty will show us the way to great food. Let's perfect our recipes as a community not blow smoke up other peoples skirts. ; )
  
  Thanks for listening.

  I don't rate until I've tried it. Because I want to give my honest opinion. Add to substitutions, and even pictures of my own version whenever I can. Like you, I wish others were more involved. But, it does take some time to follow through after trying a recipe and many people probably don't have the time.
