"As Hesser says in an interview with Tech Crunch, 'There is a huge tradition of community cookbooks, but none of them are user vetted.' This is maybe what appeals to me most about the project. It has the feel of a modern church or community cookbook, with people from all walks of life submitting. But it has expertise behind it, to ensure that there aren't, say, 15 recipes for no-bake cookies and dozens more for mayonnaise-based salads." - Jessica Battilana
“'We want it to be a cooking site where the users feel that they have a voice,' Hesser tells me about the project." -Erick Schonfeld, TechCrunch.com

(And yes, if you're a finalist 5 times, you get 5 copies!) What's more, our contest sponsor OXO is creating custom prize packages from their inventory of fantastic kitchen tools, which will be sent to all of the finalists as well as the Wildcard winners. Recent finalists for the Best Burger contest won a Digital Instant Read Thermometer, a BBQ Turner, a Silicone Oven Mitt and a set of Corn Holders. Also included in each package is a beautiful food52 bookmark -- perfect for keeping track of your favorite recipes.
