You have no idea the trouble I've gone through...
... to get permission from CI , ATK
pretty much gave up. Now I have a virtual friend who is working at ATK and forwarded my request to someone. I am still waiting to hear from them
in the meantime, I am just publishing a link to their site, so that people can go and find the recipe there. What is sad is that once you subscribe to their site, your email will get pretty flooded with their constant offers and newsletters.
sometimes, you just cannot win.
I understand they work hard on optimizing their recipes, but it seems to me that if a blogger calls, leaves messages, write emails, posts on their Facebook page requesting permission to blog on a particular recipe, they could at least reply back, wouldn't you think so?
(sigh)
