Ok....I understand you have advertisers. But after posting a review today, in the "You might also like" section I got a photo of swimsuit models, promoting the Sports Illustrated 2013 Swimsuit edition. Am I the only one that finds this strange? Usually these are recipes that are somewhat related to what I just reviewed.
No, I don't want to try a swimsuit model.....but maybe the male members have a different opinion. Let's show some equal treatment....where are the male models? LOL!

Yes, now there are "sponsored" recommendations, that have nothing to do with what you might also be interested in based on the recipe. Right now it's "Must Read Secrets Hair Stylists Dont Want You To Know", but most of them fall under the offensive category in my opinion. There was one a while back I was totally appalled at and hope it has been pulled. It was for skin bleaching and showed a picture of a light skinned African American and read something like "if it ain't white it ain't right!". I really couldn't believe that.
Then again, it also isn't right to say we may be interested in ads that have nothing to do with that recipe.
