no, quite the opposite--it is all of us who have been helped by needto at one time or another and want to help him sell his book. If people want some k, well everyone wins.
My opinion, the book is great and worth every penny for the simple fact it has food that the average person with no cooking skills (me) can make without all the gloss an bullshit of a typical cookbook that has like one good recipe--this one has dozens.
