| Aug 27, 2012 at 12:45 | comment | added | George Stocker Mod | @hkBattousai Context matters (and in this case, could be the difference between and off topic question and a question that is allowed to stay on the site). If you provide context ties it to the topic of Cooking, then it's likely it'll stay on the site. If you just post the question as is, then it'll get closed as off topic. When that happens, the OP usually complains, "But I wanted to know so that I could see if the process keeps sunflower seeds from being usable in my bacon-wrapped souffle. to which everyone will say, "Why didn't you say so in the first place?" Context matters. | |

@JoachimSauer For example, there is a question I'm planning to ask in Cooking community: How do they extract kernels of sunflower seeds in mass production?.

| Aug 27, 2012 at 9:02 | comment | added | Bart | Yes, absolutely. If you can explain everything in the title, it is a pretty good indication that your question is not all that great (or that you don't formulate good titles). | |
| Aug 27, 2012 at 9:00 | comment | added | Time Traveling Bobby | Then you're doing it wrong. | |
