    There are people who are getting their lights cut off because they can't pay the bills

    Well, they should put up a petition to make potato salad! People can't give to the needy if they don't know who to give to!

    I think donations for this are capped at $50 anyway - which, yeah makes a big difference to some people I guess but this wasn't intended. It's just another thing that's gotten out of control and now this guy is intending to do a cookbook etc with the money and take it further. I say good on him.

    Capitalism, old girl. What economic value do the lights of strangers that people will never hear about hold compared to the value of the enjoyment people derive out of watching a man on the internet be paid a lot of money to make potato salad?

    I think there's enough people that loathe potato salad that I could make a bunch of money with a contrasting potatoes au gratin kickstarter. Backers could have input on the types of cheese, etc.
