Even regular cookbooks these days will have a bit of fluff before the recipe for this purpose. Though in a cookbook pictures of food also serve this purpose.

I bought a $5 keto recipes book at my big-chain grocery store's checkout.

It's a lot easier to just try a new recipe when it's not tied up inside a 100-comment Reddit thread debating its nutritional value.


I don't mind that so much because it's easy to skip the fluff - you can find the ingredients and method in under a second since no scrolling is involved

I also wouldn't be surprised if the fluff is there because it was originally written for web and chanced upon finding a publisher
