Cindy McCain, cookie thief? The wife of the presumptive GOP nominee has been accused of recipe plagiarism -- again -- but that only provokes a larger question: Why is anyone asking a potential first lady for recipes?
  • "Plagiarize" a recipe?

    How exactly does one "plagiarize" a recipe? Recipes are not eligible for copyright for a reason. Very few recipes are “new” or “original. Look through cookbooks and magazines; most related recipes have equivalent ingredients and instructions in them.

    My mom is a fabulous baker, but she never invented the recipes for the cookies she makes for family and friends - and they all ask Mom for "her" recipes all the time.

    The MSM needs to get a real issue to report - looks like they are missing Hillary Clinton more and more every day.
