The Washington Post published a list of 25 influential American cultural works, selecting one per decade since the nation’s founding. Readers responded by highlighting major omissions, including Elvis Presley, Bob Dylan, and the iPhone, while suggesting alternatives like 'Uncle Tom’s Cabin' and Miles Davis’s 'Kind of Blue.'
Eater Portland asked readers what kind of restaurant Portland needs, receiving suggestions for a Jewish deli, Greek, Indian, and Italian restaurants, French bistros, hot dog stands, salad bars, late night diners, and more, while some emphasized supporting existing establishments. Reader feedback also included a desire for diners, Japanese kushiyaki and izakaya, dedicated gluten-free options, Georgian cuisine, Hungarian food, and neighborhood cafeterias, with an emphasis on cozy, affordable, and accessible dining spaces to maintain a vibrant culinary community in Portland.
The relaunched Recipes archive at The Washington Post regularly makes tweaks to reflect current standards for recipe writing and testing. Reader feedback is crucial in improving recipes, and when a comment described a disappointing experience with Brooks Headley's Superiority Burgers, the recipe was retested and adjusted. The quinoa was decreased and the potato starch was doubled, resulting in sturdier patties. Pan-frying was found to be more effective than baking, and a suggestion to only lightly toast the buns was made to prevent squishing the veggie patty. Reader feedback plays a vital role in refining recipes and ensuring success for other cooks.
