The best of all, but.... - Version: 2.4.1, 9/27/2009 04:23PM PST

I agree with the other users that the developer is shockingly responsive and helpful. I have tried all the recipe software there is and MG's the best. I wish it did a few things like:
*closing the revision window when I press return. I use the program so often that little things like that add up.
*creating shopping lists with more info next to the ingredient, like keywords or categories that it is associated with.
The one thing is that it has tiny little glitches that keep me from trusting it completely. I'll create a shopping list for a multi-day, multi-meal event and all the math will be perfect except for ONE or TWO items. I can't afford to send my shopping lists away incorrect, so I go over them after they are generated.... I always go back and be sure it's not a data entry issue, too.
For example 3T plus 4T plus 3 cups of vinegar does not equal 563 gallons...
Besides that, amazing program.

Best-of-breed. but it's still not great - Version: 2.4.0, 2/8/2009 07:37PM PST

Good looking interface.
Big bold text in "Chef View" is a nice feature when looking at the recipe in the kitchen.
Importing recipes from the the web is terrific.
However:
Keyboard shortcuts are not extensive (Frustrating to mouse-click to save changes, rather than command S., for example.)
The shopping list feature is nice, but it remains primitive and difficult to navigate without mousing.
This program is not (yet) a pleasure to use.

I would like to see this program also include sites that have recipes for those of us Mac users that are diabetics.
There are many out there and it would be greatly appreciated by both the Mac community and all those of use that are touched by family members that have diabetes that we cook for.
