I have to vent something!

I am really enjoying this site and I especially like the recipe section. I am on Atkins, so I have a hard time with variety and many of the recipes I've found here have been amazing.

Which leads me to a huge annoyance - PLEASE, PLEASE, PLEASE - when you read a recipe or a tip - note what diet it is refering to! It is insulting to see comments on Atkins recipes like, "Wow is that fattening! Try reducing the butter, people!" People are not going to submit recipes to this site if they don't fit the particular diet they are referring to. So please, think about it before you post these comments. It may not be right for your diet if you are following a low-fat diet, but it may be perfect for SB or Atkins. Either educate yourself or just don't comment.

Thank you!

I know it is hard, but have pity for those people who are ignorant. ;) People who have not read the Atkins diet don't understand how healthy it is. It is most unfortunate for them because they are likely starving themselves and thinking that it's what they have to do to be healthy. I think it is OK for them to post that it isn't appropriate for their diet, but the comments do get out of hand sometimes, I have to aggree. I usually try to post how I would modify a recipe to fit my diet instead of insulting the recipe. I think everyone should try that. :)

I think that's a great idea - adding how to modify a recipe to fit your particular diet. I guess I just found comment after comment today while looking through the recipes. It was just really frustrating me today! I feel better now that I got it off my chest!!! ha!
