Amazing!
I love cooking but sometimes I never know what to make. While there are thousands of recipes out there, if not more, it’s kind of like Netflix. You sit around figuring out which one you want to make. This takes the guess work out of dinners by making me work for the recipe and educating me along the way. Amazing work on this! Keep it up!Lynxesthelynx
Great in depth tutorials!
Appreciate the mini quizzes on everything from shopping to finishing the dishesKai49n
Entertaining
I thought I’d pass every test with flying colors but I’ve learned a lot that I didn’t know.Beth GB
Fun and Helpful
I can’t wait for new recipes to be released!kjley
Fun, friendly, cute, and EFFECTIVELY EDUCATIONAL
Wow, so many good things to say about this app. It is so good at achieving its main goal, which is to teach people how to cook. But it goes so much deeper than that. It will tell you how to look for the right produce, special kitchen techniques, etc, and it achieves all of this while still being approachable to novices. It’s encouraging and sweet and I have thoroughly enjoyed using this app. It’s definitely worth a try.Analisa1305
Stop asking me to allow notifications
I like the learning content. But the app keeps prompting me with an “oops” message prompting me to allow notifications. I don’t want notifications stop asking.bw2356
Great app!
What a fun way to learn to cook and learn new recipes. Gamification via short quizzes that also explain the “why” to a lot of cooking techniques. Plus the recipes themself are tasty. Every single one has been a huge hit with my family, and the kids come running in with requests any time they hear me in the kitchen starting to cook.Milt1444-1820
Terrible waste of time
This thing asks you to answer a bunch of mostly inane questions (why is a hamburger bun round?) that will not do anything but make a game out of trivia with the payoff being you “unlock” a recipe, as if that’s some reward. There is no learning material just the questions with cutesy answers. And these questions teach you nothing about cooking (true or false a tortilla is bread). This has all the hallmarks of an app built to sell an app rather than build an app that you believe is really useful. These types of apps sell you a lie that they can make difficult things easy, boring things fun, or laborious things fast. It’s mostly a lie. If you want to learn to cook look elsewhere. This dev uses sketchy marketing to promote the app, like making posts on Reddit as if they are an unrelated party asking if there is an app that teaches cooking and the full on promoting this app using a different account in answer to the question. Nothing but lies.Native Code
Developer Response
Thanks for the feedback. You hit the nail on the head that we're trying to make cooking, something often perceived as "difficult, boring, and laborious", into something that is easy, fun, and even fast. It's not a simple mission ahead of us, and it's a ton of hard work—but we think it's worth it, for both people and the planet. As for the marketing, the honest truth is it's *really hard* to get new products out into the world, so we're just trying different avenues to share Parsnip. We're sorry we offended you and will do our best to be more straightforward in how we share the app with the world.Great app!
This is a cute little app. It is consistently updated, and occasionally i go in to see whats new. Ive learned a few things from their cute style of quizzes. overall it is worth the time (:LGlass_M
Really fun!
This is an intelligent cooking tutor and playful game all in one. I’m having a great time so far and learning a lot. Can’t wait to see more recipes!Joanne162
