Unfortunately, my wife and I are close to killing each other if we cook together. There's no way I'd get that close to her when she's cutting something. My survivial insticts won't let me.

I think the one who order those cover is a little too obsesed with the clay scene from ghost... XD

If you really wanted a "real" photo of couples cooking, you'd have them both chopping or stirring while also simultaneously pinching each other's behinds. Well, that's how it works in our house anyway...

They are weird, but so are all stock photos. Trying to make a political statement out of it is weirder.

Not only interchangeable couples, but it is also always the same pot!

I guess I have to explain: I'm that guy! I'm the one that usually cooks so I undarstand. He's reaching for the knife and yells "GET THE HELL OUT OF MY KITCHEN!"

I'm confused... they all have the same name, too, and same general cover layout. Isn't it just a case of the same really unimaginative editor having a hand in all of them? Or a series of books that are meant to look very similar?

Those poses are a great way to lose a couple of fingers.

Attribute not to malice what can more easily be explained by incompetence.

Oh jeeze..I don't even know why I opened this post..who cares, really. All the c**p going on in the world and everyones on twitter talking about covers of cookbooks...wah wah

Women are not puppets. They are smarter than men.

A man hugging the woman he's with from behind? That's sexist! When one of my old girlfriends hugged me (a guy) from behind? Well, that was sexist too! Good lord, BoredPanda actually had a post praising an online cartoon, wherein one of the running jokes was that the woman liked to peg the man. Of course everyone on Bored Panda thought that was great, and actually I found it amusing too. But if you love that how can you be mad at a man hugging a woman from behind? The woman ramming a dildo in the dude's a**s is fine, but the man hugging her from behind is some sort of horrible subjugation of women? This is why people voted for Trump. This is why most men hate the Democratic Party. Not me, I'm a man who strongly disfavors Trump, voted for Hillary and votes Democratic. But this is why men vote for Trump, stupid s**t like this.

Not only do these men hover, but the women don’t know how to cut a pepper properly. Have none of them ever watched a cooking program? You don’t cut peppers like that. They will roll around or get squashed.

It's not supposed to demonstrate a useful technique, dumass. It's a posed cover picture that supposed to present the woman in the forefront (most likely to purchase the product) with the man feigning participation and admiration that the women desire.

I think that last picture is her metaphorical warning to quit messing with her while she's trying to cook, or else.

Is this just about women being angry and jealous because they can't cook? I see nothing weird in this. I'm a female who cooks,every man in my family cooks, if you don't know how to cook and are a female than you're 100% will be a worse mother than one which can cook. Women cry about sandwich, guess what, that's not cooking,I as a toddler could make a sandwich.

Some people just HAVE to be pissed off about something. Can never accept something for it is,... have to read political nonsense into EVERYTHING!

Perhaps smoking-before-cooking-giggles makes for unsteady hands.

Life is now nothing but an ongoing Jerry Springer show. Except weak titles like "I cooked with your husband and we made a book" and "I was going to let my wife cook but I would have been deemed sexist, even though she is a way better cook than me, because I burn toast". This comment will possibly annoy someone. Don't be annoyed there was no harm intended at all.

If my husband tried these "moves" on me when we cook, he'd be dead from a stab wound! I'm not the cook in our family (He is and always has been our chief "chef"--34 yrs. together baby!). I ask for his advice if and when I decide to cook, but that is all! He KNOWS better than to be looking over my shoulder as I can't stand that from anyone (I've even told off my boss for doing it!). So the kitchen is a "no-go" zone for anyone if I'm in there doin' my thing.

When my husband and I cook together there is usually much more of, "Will you get out of my way?" from both of us.

The blonde in top right ad should have perhaps touched her roots up before the shoot. Oh no wait!!! They want it to look as natural as possible.

It's a book cover, nothing more. You don't need to read anything into it, it illustrates two people cooking together. It's not a political statement.

Y'all aren't really romantic, are you?

I totally thought the pot cookbook was for something else altogether - very disappointing

I howled reading down this :D oh boy I do love a good showdown

What is that electronic pot in these book covers? I have never seen anything like that. A rice cooker?

The only thing missing is the puppet strings.

The s**t a******s get triggered by...

It says "FOR TWO" right on the cover. Settle down and stop desperately looking for something to be enraged about.

It's because Girls don't know how to use a chopper 😁

Yeah, couples spending time together is dumb and unproductive.
