I find this whole recipe argument kind of odd.
What's wrong
with sample recipes? Someone can, for instance, read the
article about tapioca and not get a very complete

can provide a far more complete understanding of tapioca.
I'll agree with that. But an article shouldn't assert that this is
*the* way to make tapioca pudding. The recipe should be exemplary
of most recipes. (I don't think I used that correctly, but I hope
the meaning gets across...)
