Free content is free content, but when it comes to cooking sites, some of them are just flat out scammy SEO farms. Even big names like food network, a link to the recipe I want almost always simply goes to an index page without my recipe on it on the food network site.
The long tell me your life story format of just wrapping a recipe that's not original is also incredibly annoying, and sometimes I find I get tricked into just wading through ads for nothing of value. As I posted elsewhere here, I've become very loyal to a few high quality sites that I can count on. seriouseats.com is probably the only one I really like in web format, but honestly youtube is full of excellent 12-15 minute videos for just about any meal I can think of, and I tend to go there.
