Public Service Announcement: We love our Readers!

...and we love it when you message us asking us to remix a recipe.

That's why we're posting this message...to let you know how we handle reader requests.

When someone writes us asking for a recipe or product remix, we are always up to the challenge! But here are a few things that might happen as a result:

  1. We may have some questions to ask you - often we get requests to remix regional dishes we've never heard of! It's helpful, in those cases, to ask some questions about how the dish tastes in its original version so that we can know if we've done a good job remixing it!
  2. If there is an existing product that easily meets your needs, we'll tell you what it is and where to get it.
  3. If a recipe doesn't require many tweaks, we may simply suggest a few sensible swaps as suggestions on how you can enhance your recipe.
  4. If you make the remixed recipe, we may ask you to snap a photo for our albums or for future posting! We get excited when you cook!
  5. You will ALWAYS get a recipe from us in response, although not every reader request recipe will appear on the blog.
"Whoa! Wait...what???"

I know...I know...but there's a good reason! Bariatric Foodie runs on a blogging schedule since both Jen and Nik have day jobs. This means we often schedule blog posts weeks in advance! (This is not only for our schedules' sakes but also so that we are not overrun with excess food...we are post-ops too and have to make sure to manage OUR new lifestyles!)

Your resident divas hard at work


As a part of BF's blog schedule, we set aside a certain number of slots for reader requests each week and we try to get to them as fast as we can!

As we get more and more requests, we can't guarantee that every request will be published on the blog. Some may get shared via our Facebook Fan Page or even at an in-person Pouch Party! But in any case, we will always send YOU the recipe you requested (usually via e-mail, but perhaps also via your OH or Facebook account, if you've posted a request on the public forum).

We just wanted to put that out there so that if your recipe doesn't go on the blog (most do...but some may not), you'll know why. We LOVE our readers and strive to serve you in the very best way we can!

So please do send us your requests. We love a good challenge...and we love that you trust US to remix your favorite recipes.


"That is all!"
