How can open-source free software culture practices be adopted and adapted to food culture? Is cooking an elitist practice?
Foodcritic is a linter and code standard enforcer for Chef cookbooks.
Foodcritic is a static analysis tool, meaning that it examines the code without executing it. 
Foodcritic can find a wide range of issues, including formatting, deviation from best practices, and subtle bugs.

Thought

How can we reflect on cooking as an anti-capitalist action? Our time has been carefully structured so that we can spend 
as much time as possible being productive, as in producing capital and goods.

is something that they can provide, so that we can be simply consumers. 
Our free time should only be spend on leisure activities/entertainment, otherwise known as even more consumption.
