MacGourmet Themes: Changing the Way Your Recipe Box Looks
One thing about MacGourmet I don't think I point out enough is the ability to change the theme used to display your recipes and notes in your recipe box. MacGourmet has offered this from day one and in version 2 it's gotten enhanced to be more flexible. 
In fact, if you are handy with HTML and CSS, you can pretty much redefine the way all of the recipes and notes are shown, adding information or hiding it, and completely changing where elements are. You can also do the same thing for the .Mac and printing themes as well. It's made to be very flexible. There is even a Theme Dev Kit that helps those knowledgeable enough to create new HTML templates for their themes.You can read all about MacGourmet display themes on the Themes page, and about publishing themes on the Publishing page. Both pages also have additional themes you can download. Installing new themes is as simple as double-clicking on a theme file in the Mac Finder.
(I've actually been toying with the idea of holding a theme creation contest, with prizes for the best entries in each category, etc. If it's something you'd be interested in, drop me a line.)

I respectfully submit that less time be spent on themes, and more on nutritional analysis and you'd probably sell more product.
Please see my previous post "MacGourmet: What's Next" too read more about nutritional support being the next major feature that will be worked on after 2.1 is posted (most of that work is already done).
