[edit] Criticism
Not sure if it's appropriate, but there seems to be enough criticism of the show that would warrent a small blurb. Most of the criticism that I've seen revolves around the fact that it's really hard to try to cook one of these receipes in 30 minutes, without having spent time prepping before hand.

- Rachel Ray says on the show that she preps her vegetables by washing them as soon as she gets home from the grocery store so it saves her time. She also gets pre-made items like chicken stock, salad in a bag, etc.. It's not like she doesn't make it known she takes these shortcuts. Mr. C.C. 21:58, 4 July 2006 (UTC)
[edit] Tips from Rachael Ray---Necessary?
The tips from Rachael Ray section seems a little bit unnecessary. It seems like promo material at best. Thoughts? --IRelayer 08:48, 8 October 2006 (UTC)
- Agreed. Reads more like a magazine article than a Wiki entry. Support removal. The catchphrases section also needs to be integrated into the main body of the article. Air.dance 09:39, 8 October 2006 (UTC)

- I also agree, it definetly reads like a magazine fluff piece. I was also involved in limiting the (many) excesses of the "criticism" section on her main page, so I'm not biased against her. And man, it's weird to think of people being biased for or against a tv chef... Lucky Adrastus 00:52, 10 October 2006 (UTC)

- I have removed the section. If anyone feels the need to rework it in some way, please provide the justification here. Thanks for your input! --IRelayer 07:12, 13 October 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Order of Cookbooks
The article indicates that Comfort Foods was the first 30 Minute Meals cookbook. However, I believe the original 30 Minute Meals cookbook predated Comfort Foods by a little over a year. - 71.244.17.49 17:57, 27 October 2006 (UTC)
