Let me take this opportunity to complain about online recipes these days. Everything is inflated with a ridiculous volume of unwanted fluff content that makes the recipes more difficult to use.
Like, I just want to know the ingredients for Beef Stroganoff and in what order to assemble them. What I get is a book that starts with, “Beef Stroganoff started as the ancestral celebration meal for peasant steppe farmers…yadda…yadda…yadda.”
This is because of everyone's favorite topic SEO
@Rooster326 @xenomor not just SEO; also the blogs are paid for with inline ads so you need enough text to fit the ads in *and* a forced scroll through them to satisfy the view counters, plus you can't copyright a list of ingredients but you CAN copyright the text around a recipe so this is all a method of claiming authorship (not that that will stop the AI scrapers).
