    5 out of 5 stars Wonderful kitchen gadget!   December 13, 2008
    Jennifer L. Carr (Denver, CO USA)
    I love to make my own recipes and this program not only stores my new creations as well as beloved family recipes, but it also provides nutritional information! This program is super easy to use and it really gives you a ton of information! It also comes loaded with a ton of cookbooks and transferring recipes from online is soooo easy! I highly recommend this program.


    4 out of 5 stars This took a while.   November 29, 2008
    The Sensible Shopper (Las Vegas)
    I bought Master Cook in order to download recipes from the web into one location. It took a lot of experimentation to load the toolbar and get the hang of downloading. The second reason I bought it was to compile my own cookbook. I'll get back to you on that one!


    5 out of 5 stars Wow   February 5, 2008
    Aunt Shell
    There is more to MasterCook than just recipes. I started using MC to create weekly mealplans. I was amazed when I found out that I could set up a listing of everything in my pantry or fridge in a list and the program would subtract everthing that I already had from my shopping list. It also does nutritional analysis. All I can say is WOW!


    5 out of 5 stars Impressive Application   September 12, 2007
    Lady Dragoness (Deep South, USA)
    Having been forced by health issues to watch the nutritional value of the food I eat, I am already finding that this product makes that job a whole lot easier. There is a lifetime supply of new recipes to try included with the program, but the biggest advantage to me is the breakdown of sodium, fat, cholesterol, sugar and other nutrients included with each recipe and the program's ability to extrapolate this information from recipes I enter myself.

    In a household of two, there isn't much need to make a recipe that serves 50, but with MasterCook's ability to scale a recipe, a smaller version of the recipe can be prepared with ease, allowing the recipes to be used in suitable proportions. This product is worth far more than I paid for it!



    2 out of 5 stars Not great software   August 18, 2007

    I have had both the 7.0 and 8.0 versions of this software, and was duly unimpressed with both. It is loaded with LOUSY recipes, the search function is awkward, the software runs slowly, backups are unreliable and, the thing that irritated me most, the nutritional analysis of recipes was always WAY off. Either it didn't recognize half the ingredients in the recipe or it was just plain old unable to calculate the values. I thought that perhaps the 8.0 version would have worked out the bugs from 7.0, but I was wrong. I just purchased Cook'n software and so far it appears to be far superior.
