Bon Appetit has been in publication since 1956. It's unfair to call it a food blog. (I can't speak to the specifics of plastics that you referred to, just the fact of dismissing the magazine).

    Fair, I was too casual in my assessment of Bon Appetit. I have nothing against food blogs though, for what it's worth.

    I should probably have said: "I don't think that Condé Nast food and entertainment magazines containing Amazon affiliate links are necessarily a great source for the latest accurate and objective health and science information." I would read a recipe on their site though.

    I don't know, Ars Technica has had some of the best coverage of the recent AI boom over the past handful of years. Extremely realistic, accurate and at times demonstrates a knowledge that shows the writers have actually put in some hours using and understanding some of the AI tools they write about

    I don't think that's the point. Bon Appétit specializes in food and its preparation, not science. It's difficult to know if what your source is saying is legitimate if you don't have the education needed to truly understand what they're talking about.
