Web Site of the Week: Foodista.com
Posted by: Christine Bulson

Epicurious.com was a Web Site of the Week last year and now there are additional cooking sites (Foodista.com and Recipes.Wikia where anyone can edit the recipes.  A later Web Site of the Week will feature Wikia.com where Recipes.Wikia is a topic area.   The first look at Foodista is pleasant without a lot of advertisements flashing by.  Its subtitle is “The Cooking Encyclopedia Everyone Can Edit” so if you have lots of free time here is something to do!  However, if you are looking for information, you can search for recipes in addition to finding descriptions of ingredients, tools and techniques. You may also post a question or answer a question.  The site has ”The Food 500 Project” which encourages readers to help describe 500 foods.  Open-edited sites may have mistakes but cooks and foodies will find Foodista useful.
