It's nothing really noteworthy. Just that modern cookbooks tend to be more overglorified blogs than cookbooks. Even "pure" cookbooks (like, 1-2 recipes per page kind of thing) tend to have a paragraph prior to each recipe telling some story, and inevitably, unneeded "representation" or "intersectional" things are going to come up in those (already unneeded) anecdotes.
Can't even buy a cookbook nowadays without being informed first of who the author prefers fucking.
Ok, I want to know more.
