 - Pre Windows95 SoftwareThe interface is pretty awful. Looks like it was writted for Windows 3.1 (pre Windows95). For this price the interface should have been modernized. Also, you have to put the CD in in order to use it. However, it does do ok at cataloging your own recipes which is what i wanted it for. The recipes already in it are not very vegetarian, using meat, sugar, butter and other stuff. Some are veggie though. Overall, I'm disappointed in the interface, and the fact i have to put the CD in every time i want to use it. Rating:  - From Cheryl in MichiganI love this program. It is easy to enter the recipes and simple to use. The only thing I did not like is that you could not spell check your added recipes. It also comes with many good recipes. Rating:  - I love this softwareCook'n for Vegetarians comes with tons of Vegetarian recipes that are delicious, and such a variety. The software is perfect for entering your own recipes. And for those of us who are watching our weight too, you can enter your own nutritional information for any lite ingredient and the software will automatically compute the recipe's nutritional value for you. Also, I host parties for my family often and it's so easy to change the number of people you'd like to serve and the program automatically changes the ingredient amounts for you! I've added more recipe cookbook titles to my collection since and loved them all. You can download the cookbooks once you have the software from [local website]. I give it 5 stars! Rating: - Not for vegetarians; clunky, non-intuitive interfaceI was looking forward to a product aimed at vegetarians. Somehow, a food listing that includes bacon bits, bacon drippings, and anchovies is missing the point (so far I've only gotten to the B's in deleting non-vegetarian ingredients and recipes). Some people confusedly think eating chicken or fish qualifies them as a vegetarian, so maybe that is the audience this program seeks (although that still doesn't explain the bacon). Earlier I posted my inability to customize nutrition information. A quick response from support showed me how...the information was not located in the manual and was not at all intuitive (and I work in computers all day every day). Rating: - Great variety--Excellent!It's not easy finding good vegetarian recipes. That's why I was excited to find that someone had compiled a CD full of them. The variety on this CD is AMAZING! I was surprised to see that I could organize not only my own recipes but even the ones that came pre-programmed in the software. Whenever I find a really good recipe on the CD, I put it in my own category so I can use it again later. I'm not very computer literate but this CD was a snap to use. I just popped it in my CD drive and away I went. I highly recommend it.
