Amazon.com Review:
If you collect Junior League cookbooks and covet your yellowed recipe cards from Grandma, this might be the cooking program for you. Many of the 600 recipes in Cook'n with Taste of Home will bring back memories: green bean casserole, Jell-O salads, church supper hot dishes--they're all here. As the box says, "Forget running to a specialty store for goat cheese or sun-dried tomatoes, these recipes call only for ingredients you have right on hand." If you must have your feta, find another program. But if cheddar's OK by you, read on.

The recipes here are all family fare and comfort food; pot roast, Instant Party Potatoes, and a cake that actually has Coca-Cola among the ingredients were a few that caused flashbacks. Interestingly, we also found recipes for venison and pheasant--ingredients we don't usually "have right on hand."

This CD-ROM is easier to navigate than some of the other Cook'n titles, and the production quality of the tutorial videos sprinkled throughout the program is also improved. Cooks can adjust the main page to browse by category, ingredient, or photograph (500 out of 600 recipes have pictures). There are 10 chapters of recipes, which range from main dishes to soups to salads to desserts.

This program quickly jumps through all of the hoops we expect cooking CD-ROMs to manage: it adjusts serving sizes, compiles shopping lists and nutritional analysis charts from recipes, helps cooks find recipes based on what they have in the cupboard, and creates weekly, even yearly, menus for the ultra-organized. Recipes and shopping lists can be downloaded onto Palm Pilots, and old-fashioned folks can print these recipes on three-by-five cards (not provided with the program).

For truly nonintuitive cooks, this program will translate the recipe's required 2 cups of tomato sauce into the required number of cans you must buy, then give you a choice of whether you want to put Hunts, Progresso, or Classico on the list for when you swing by the store. We think this is a bit much: at some point, the anal-retentive capabilities of these cooking programs will bog cooks down just as much as sloppily filed index cards from Granny. We'd rather see more recipes and fewer brand names. --Anne Erickson

- a great recipe program
I have found this program to be as great as advertised. It is easy to navigate the system. Entering my own recipes is fast and I love how I can individually organize them in different books and chapters. The recipes included have all been delicious. My family especially loved the Chicken Bundles. I recommend this program to anyone who loves to cook, and wants to organize their recipes.

- It's ok
I had higher hopes for this software. As, I am a huge fan of the Taste of Home Magazine, I expected it to have way more recipes. I did like the fact that there are a lot of options with this software, you can store your own, update, cut or add quantities, I also like the fact that you don't have to keep re-installing the disk everytime you want to use it. So, I am able to share it with my friends.

- All The Bells And Whistles
I recently got a new computer and discovered to my dismay my cookbook program was not compatable with Windows XP. I subscribe to "A Taste Of Home" and when searching for a new program, this one popped up. Installing was a breeze, but I do have a problem with having to keep the CD in the computer. I tried to do the update that I think will solve this problem, but living in the booddocks as I do, my connection speed is not the best (and that is being charitable!) and it is not stable enough to ...

- EXCELLENT PRODUCT-10 STARS !!!!!
After subscribing to Taste of Home Magazine since it was first published, I was very happy to see the Taste of Home program offered by DVO Cook'n. I purchased the software and think it is the BEST recipe software available. The recipes are great and the program VERY EASY to use.

Since then I have given it as gifts to several friends and they also are VERY happy with it.

I have now ordered the DVO Cook'n Deluxe and Grillin software and can't wait for it to arrive.
