MacGourmet Ready for Snow Leopard
It appears that all systems are go for MacGourmet (and MacGourmet Deluxe of course) on Snow Leopard. I haven't found any issues so far.
There is one bit of information that users of the Services menu do need to know though: On Snow Leopard, support for Mac OS X Services changed and they are totally configurable now. You do have to explicitly add your MacGourmet Services menu items to your Services menu though, they are no longer there by default.
To do this:
Open the Services Preferences from the Services menu in any app, in this case, Safari:
Then, look for the MacGourmet menu items, "Import Recipe From Web Page" and "Import Text Clipping" and check the boxes next to them:
Close Preferences, and that should be it, the MacGourmet Services have been enabled again.

This did not work for me. Both are selected, but hey still dont show up in Safari
@Anonymous: You have to have something selected before any of the commands show up now... If you don't you won't see any of the menu items.
Ah, thats it! Thank you for the quick response!!
I've set this up and it shows in the menu but does not work for me. It gives me the "The Make Text Clipping service cannot be used" error. Anyone have any ideas?
This is an update to my previous post about the services not working. I started my computer with the SL disc and repaired permissions and repaired the disc. Although it didn't seem to find many problems, it fixed the services error.
This did not work for me as well using firefox
@Jeremy: Firefox hasn't supported Mac OS X Services in the past, and still doesn't.
All I get in Safari (after choosing Services Menu) is: Building...
How can I choose something that doesn't show up?
@anonymous: no idea, this is completely outside of the MacGourmet realm, and in the Snow Leopard area, I'm not sure what the solution to that might be.
@Anonymous: I got the same "Building" thing but after starting from the Snow Leopard disc and running repair the permissions and repair the disc, the services worked as they should. It worked for me.
I'm using MacGourmet Deluxe and Snow Leopard and don't see anything at all under Services like I used to with Leopard. So what do I do now?
@Larry McJunkin, you should find that this blog post includes the explicit instructions on re-enabling this feature under Snow Leopard.
I came here because I'm having the "building" issue as well. The funny thing is it's always worked before, even on Snow Leopard. Suddenly it doesn't.
Oh. How frustrating. I now see it's a system-wide problem. Guess I'll try repairing permissions.
Any idea why this doesn't work in Chrome…I have the boxes checked (works in Safari), but can't seem to get it work in Chrome. Thanks!
It doesn't look like Chrome supports services. Here is some discussion. http://www.google.com/support/forum/p/Chrome/thread?tid=42fd63c660ec0d81&hl=en
