Cooking Wiki that can be edited by anyone

We’ve all been there, downloaded a recipe, followed it to the tee and getting a result looked nowhere close to the picture or tasted any good..

Check out Foodista – the cooking encyclopedia that is editable by anyone.  Launched late last year in Seattle, Foodista is a collaborative project to build the world’s largest, highest quality cooking encyclopedia. Rather than include hundreds of recipes for the same basic result, however—the way many recipe sites do—Foodista aims instead to perfect a few key recipes through the collaborative editing process. Thousands of high-resolution photos from the Flickr.com Creative Commons currently illustrate the topics on the site—though not the results of specific recipes, as TechCrunch points out—and users can also upload their own photos.

Perhaps a case to prove if too many cooks do spoil the broth? Let’s wait and see!
