The cooking blog Spoon Fork Bacon<\/a> was a finalist in Saveur’s Best Food Blogs of 2013<\/a>; however, it is a uniquely different food blog.\u00a0 The twist on the Spoon Fork Bacon blog comes in how the bloggers portray themselves.\u00a0 Many blogs about recipes will get right into cooking, because that is what we are expecting.\u00a0 This blog, which is authored by Teri Lyn Fisher and Jenny Park, is much more personal.\u00a0 The day I visited this blog, the opening paragraph on the front page spoke about how the blogger had just recently turned 30.<\/p>\n Now, this isn’t too unusual for a blog to include information about the authors; however, the means in which it is portrayed is different.\u00a0 The blog has a feel more around having fun than learning to cook.\u00a0 Before, cookbooks were a simple step by step process.\u00a0 This blog offers a more narrative style teaching, that honestly feels confused about it’s identity.\u00a0 The site itself is a contributor to the Kitchen Daily<\/a> site, part of Aol<\/a>, a news source.\u00a0 Both of these sites are well put together, easy to navigate and professional looking, unlike parts of Spoon Fork Bacon.\u00a0 Some pages<\/a> are easy to read and navigate, just ignore the random crumbs.\u00a0 Other pages<\/a> are less pleasing to look at with a large paragraph of categories and then pictures of those categories after the paragraph.<\/p>\n Spoon Fork Bacon could be the future of the online recipe guides.\u00a0 Having been chosen as a finalist for one of the best cooking blogs, and being supported in part by larger entities, suggests that a good portion of readers enjoy the less formal approach to learning to cook.\u00a0 From the quirky About<\/a> page with appearing and disappearing dots, to the fun narratives by the authors, this blog calls for a reexamination of why users come to these sites.\u00a0 Visiting the blog and getting the recipe may now be considered part of the experience of cooking for the users.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" The cooking blog Spoon Fork Bacon was a finalist in Saveur’s Best Food Blogs of 2013; however, it is a uniquely different food blog.\u00a0 The twist on the Spoon Fork Bacon blog comes in how the bloggers portray themselves.\u00a0 Many…<\/p>\n
