View Full Version : Intrest in a food section
It has been brought to my attention that there might be intrest in a "Food section" to share recipes and such.. If I set it up, would it get used?

I regularly post recipes on FaceBook. I'm a fat bastard and I love to cook. I'll be happy to post recipes here too. I'll help you guys get fat too!

I'm for it! I love to cook, though sadly a lot of my creations do not stem from recipes. I taunt my facebook friends with pics though.
And my recipes that I do have are all secret family recipes that I would be killed if I shared. For instance, my Mom got our secret family steak soak in the divorce.
Over doing it with subforums is the death of a discussion board; especially off topic ones.

Okay, looking through the site I don't see a single section that is not dedicated to gun stuff with the single exception of the "Boost your post count" thread, which is a single thread and I think is a useful and fun thread. So I don't think that ONE section that we can put info on another hobby is going to kill this fine site. Especially since it appears that a number of us enjoy creating our own culinary delights. So I'm going to say YES, provided it is just one section in the General area and we don't use this as a springboard to start adding tons of unrelated things. I do agree on the manner in which Marlin went about this. Thanks, Marlin!
For the record, I'm talking about subforums, not a stickied thread.
I have ideas up the ass for stickied threads in the GD section.

That's just wrong Lefty, so very wrong (I was ready to post the exact same thing though).
I agree with Troubleco - one thread in the General Discussion forum won't kill us and we might actually learn something. I vote YES.
mmmhmmmm... food and guns. A picture thread must soon be to come. Steak and taters with an M16.... and a plastic spork.
NO
There are plenty of cooking forums,just search.
I go to some great cooking forum,to learn recipes.
I come here to read about fellow Colorado firearms enthusiast.
this is the wild game thread

A sticky thread would be enough. One stop shopping - so to speak.
I'd be more interested in a political subforum. IMO that would make General Discussion more interesting. [Peep]
I've been into brines and moles lately. If there was a place to post, I might share. [Dinner]
so brine shrimp and moles taste good?
and to think i just fish with the 1st and shoot the others.

I would suggest just sticky a thread to judge the interest. I would hate to see this site turn into another ARF with 10,000 different sub-forums not related to firearms.

You sound like a mirror image of me!!! (without the FaceBook part) [Beer]

I am seriously wondering if this is man card penalty realm. Sharing recipes just makes my eyebrow go up and think of penalty points on man cards. [Tooth] [Neene2] [Awesom]

I don't think it is worthy of man card revocation, being able to cook well socres a lot with women.

HA! Talk to my wife and she would vehemtly disagree. Part of how I landed her was my cooking! Here's wifey:
Hmm, can't seem to directly add a pic... Check the thumbnail then.

A recipe for a thick, fat steak is un-manly?? No, my friend, it is a celebration of testosterone...
Secondly, as I am one of the lucky few to operate power tools professionally every day, I have an abundance of man-power. In fact, my wife just recently got pissed off at me and declared, in front of witnessess, that I have neither any interest in romance nor an emotional bone in my body.....
I'm pretty sure I'm exempt from man card demerits....[LOL]

These are a few of my favorite things as well.
I second the motion......
The lack of naked chicks in every thread is one of the main reasons that I post here. Every other corner of the website offers naked chicks.
does that spork thing have a sharpened edge?

While a food section would be nice a Survival and Preparedness section would get more use from me. ;)
I saw the Eat 'N Tool in KellyTTE's Shot Show reviews. If it had a Popeil Pocket Fisherman attached, it would be the ultimate tool.[WooHoo]
I've always liked to eat, so I learned to cook. [Spam] doesn't cut it for me. How does self sufficiency threaten the man card?

Should I set up another poll?

Should I set up another poll? I say go for it. While I enjoy posting about stuff on another board having members that are more local would be nice.

I second that. I see a lot of traffic on a local site that I visit here in TN. Not to sound chauvinistic but my wife does all the cooking in my home so I could care less about learning more than I know on that topic. She cooks so good too!
Should I set up another poll?
Sure. This isn't becoming a democracy is it?

I agree on the cooking part as not a sissy thing to do, but the exchanging of recipes is a little on the silly side. It kinda makes think of guys getting together for a quilt making session and gossiping about this that or the other of "women" things.
Also FWIW, anything that a guy can do to get pie and in your case.. a woman, I am in support of. [Beer]

Negative. If I didn't cook the things I wanted I wouldn't get them most of the time, plus the wife finds it harder to argue with me wanting to go shooting the day after I made some particularly tasty item for dinner. Also, a man who can cook never needs to worry about going hungry. (You know, teach a man to fish...)
My wife made comments supporting what BigBear said. Cooking goes a LONG way with women. I agree with not having a million oddball threads. But I don't think having a single thread about this in the General section is going to hurt anyone. I like the Survival and Preparedness section idea also. It fits in with the character of the site.
I was going to ask about a good recipes for subsonic 9mm, but I don't want DD977GM2 to call me a fag. ;)

As long as they're hot naked chicks!
