It is clear you are passionate about what you do and believe in, and I love that in a food writer. And thank god SOMEONE finally made fun of Kimball's hair and bow tie. It was a long time coming! Hey Barbara,

Joining this conversation a bit too late, but just wanted to give you a shout out for such a great post. It is clear you are passionate about what you do and believe in, and I love that in a food writer.

And thank god SOMEONE finally made fun of Kimball’s hair and bow tie. It was a long time coming!

Yes? No? Is that my imagination? I saw their mag at Balducci's check out this past week, first thing on the cover "Herb Roasted Chicken." Oh! Stop already, I own Roasting by Barbara Kafta - move on!

Man, they didn't realize how much clout food bloggers have online! I for one will never be purchasing any of their products either. This was great!

I must say though, i looked for it very far and very wide as i live in south india and no bookstore stocked it.. i finally had to order it online. So Cook's illustrated is definitely going to be avoided like the plague because i trust your judgment. And also because anyone who zaps the flavor out of any asian recipe and 'perfects' it .. hah! I love my native cuisine! Blandifying it will not make it 'perfect', thank you very much! Wow,
