Cook's Illustrated Defeats Food52.com in Online Food Thing

Print media wins! Food52 tweets, admitting defeat in the "online food fight" that pitted recipes from the venerable Cook's Illustrated against those from the crowd-sourced food52 via an online poll hosted at Slate. Nothing on Slate's website just yet, but expect handwringing and commentary about the nature of thoughtful, trained experts vs user-generated netizens who have day jobs, or as Slate calls it, "stern Yankee precision" vs "Brooklyn bobo spontaneity."
