- Comment: If there is a better hook, we can go with that. Open to suggestions. This one might be a tad nasty.

The article is new enough, long enough, and adequately sourced. The hook is cited inline and verified, though I changed the quotation marks to double ones per the MOS. QPQ is still pending. I also noticed a typo in the article: the words "was the" are missing from a self-published book which best-selling cookbook in US history at the time

- Thanks much Narutolovehinata5 for catching the typo. Fixed it. Any thoughts on any other hook that we could consider? As interesting as the hook is, it still seems impolite. Thoughts on any other? Cheers. Ktin (talk) 01:52, 13 February 2021 (UTC)
- As the subject is not a BLP, it probably no longer violates that, and besides it talks about her book and not herself. I actually thought the punchline was pretty funny, though if you have any other suggestions, feel free to leave them here. Narutolovehinata5 tccsdnew 01:56, 13 February 2021 (UTC)
- @Narutolovehinata5: Cool. Thanks. Adding QPQ. Ktin (talk) 06:30, 13 February 2021 (UTC)

- Comment Being an editor is not a recipe for popularity: the source has a quote that she “squeezed great work out of her authors” (emphasis mine). Joofjoof (talk) 19:15, 13 February 2021 (UTC)
- @Joofjoof: Rightly said. I saw that comment too. Tried bringing it into the article but, did not. Will give it another try. In the meantime, if you think of a more interesting hook, I am all ears. Thanks again. Ktin (talk) 19:20, 13 February 2021 (UTC)
