Pinterest Pet Peeve!

Maybe I just have the wrong people on my Pinterest, but I swear 90% of the "recipes" I see pinned are just a bunch of pre-packaged processed garbage thrown together into the same pan. Oreos layered with cookie dough from a tube layered with boxed brownies...how is this a recipe in any way, shape, or form?
I feel like I'm alone on this because I see probably at least half a dozen of these "recipes" posted DAILY, and among them are a bunch of pins of "GREAT ABS in THIRTY SECONDS!" "LOSE 10 POUNDS IN TWO DAYS!" I feel like I've become more aware of this since really buckling down about what I eat. Please tell me I'm not alone in my irritation!

You are certainly not alone, though my pinterest does not include recipes. Your awareness of healthful eating has lessened your tolerance for culinary laziness.0
