   Looking for [1]some free recipes?

   By the way, as an aside: the phrase "free recipe" is moderately silly.
   You can't copyright or patent a recipe. Not that the folks at World
   Famous Recipes stated anything to the contrary, it just popped into my
   head. All recipes are free. Descriptive text surrounding them is not,
   but you can reprint any recipe from any cookbook without attribution.

   One wonders what the world would be like if we tried to extend
   copyright and patent protections to such things.
