I noticed while making my recipes that you can either make it private or share with the community, but I can't find the community recipes. Can someone please tell me where it is hiding? Thank you in advance.

    I would like to know this as well. I just entered a recipe. It shows in my recipe box, but I can't see where it is in the community database. Is the community database the section where you add a food and it shows you all the choices? I am not sure. I would like to see the other recipes that people have, along with all the calorie content of each recipe.

    Apparently this is something which MFP hopes to add in the future.

    From what I remember, when you "share with the community" it is putting the name and nutrition info into the data base, but they don't actually get the recipe.

    I read somewhere on here once that they're trying to compile enough recipes before they make it public to everyone.

    yeah, but I've been here since May 2011, and it's said that since then....you'd think they'd have enough by now...

    There's a MFP group called "recipe swap" and they have plenty of recipes on their page to keep one busy for a LONG time
