I Quit

I have been trying to improve the food and cooking section since 2009 and it has been to no avail. So now I've decided not post in here anymore because I strongly believe that this section is just becoming spam central. I have deleted most of my posts and recipes in here also my threads.

But i am still willing to help you guys with stuff if you just PM me with your question.

There's nothing to talk about, that's the problem.

their are many aspects to food and to cooking but no one wants to take the time all they wanna do is just raise there post count with "I ate ****"

lol like what?

I'm passionate about cooking and have been ever since i was young, my dads a chef but i find it hard to find something to talk about on forums.

You can't force people to do something they don't want to. The same goes for you too, right? This is a "Food" and Cooking section. It is not only intended for cooking related topics.

I have an idea...let's have a monthly recipe-making contest? Has to start in January though, since December is almost over.

I kinda of agree with Long here.

Then again, living in America, 90% of my friends of my age don't cook.
I don't know about other people of my age around the world, but I'm guessing it's quite similar. Most people only start to learn how to cook when they start to have their own family (that includes my mom). And I can understand that. Cooking for some people is in fact not even close to a hobby, but a hassle. I believe close to 50% of people don't like cook. Not to mention actually try to post anything about cooking on a porn site thread.

p.s. I like the cooking contest idea, I've already developed some of my unique cooking recipes and pretty proud of them myself.

Eventually I want to open a Cafe as my part time job.

p.s. Also, we need more interesting polls or topics, instead of something like "what's for dinner?" Well, I had breast milk for dinner, and you?

I'd be keen. But too bad i don't use recipes when cooking lol and it'd be hard to judge without actually using the recipe first.

A cooking contest might be fun. A theme for cooking every week (eg seafood or eggs) and post pics up. Have some critic and judging by other members etc.

Hey, at least you tried, Long.
Some would have given up in the first week. You stayed for a year.

Since May 28th 2009

[font=Verdana][color=green]Absolutely brilliant idea. If we start in January, it gives us a couple of weeks to get things prepared i.e. how it will be judged, themes etc etc. Possible themes could be; seafood, winter warmers, budget cooking etc etc.

I fully support this idea.

i talked to her about this it would be judged off plate design and recipe. If you used your own recipe it's a plus if you made something difficult it's a plus. I think knife cuts should also be a factor.

So should we assume a date for the picture posting? Actually we should give it a week so people can be more flexible with their schedule. Like a week after January 1st to be the deadline of picture submission. (and with pictures of process of making it)

Deadline for pics and everything else will be midnight of February 1.

Actually, from now on, ask your questions on the Top Chef Fakku official thread, so we keep it all in one place.

no!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! love this section I try not to post often to avoid spam!!!! but I should post more stuff here like recipes TT_TT

I hate cutting my fingers.
there should be a thread discussing about tips on how tos

Quit complaining. You didnt have to go as far as to delete your posts too.
