CAPTCHA, Prime Day, James Beard entry period open, 1,700 EYBD Previews and more

This week we have added CAPTCHA in order to sign-in to our site. A CAPTCHA is a type of challenge–response test used in computing to determine whether the user is human in order to deter bot attacks and spam. Please see Jane’s blog post with more information about this measure.


October 10-11th is Amazon Prime Day again! If you do any deal shopping during this time, or any other time of the year, we would appreciate your clicking on affiliate links (below) first so that we obtain a small commission on your purchases. I will be updating our Cookbook Deals during that time with Prime deals so look for that post which will be at the top of the Blog Page here at Eat Your Books.


We recently uploaded our 1,700th EYBD Preview and have over 7,000 EYBD Recipes available for our members!

In case you missed it, the 2024 James Beard Book Awards Call for Entries are Now Open!
