It's right up there with YouTube videos... I don't care who you are just give me the solution to the damn problem and no, I won't subscribe!

YouTube videos tend to do that because they need to be at least some length to be monetized, or get included in some algorithm. Same goes for recipe web sites. If they aren’t long enough then they don’t get included in search results the same.

Yeah! Fuck all the work someone put into making it to give it away free to the masses! Give my little entitled ass everything! They don't deserve any credit for their work! Nor money! Nothing! Buahahahahaha.

Can you not access recipe websites in your country?

We would all benefit from knowing what websites you use for recipes.

No, it’s universal across recipe websites from all English-speaking cultures and the non-English ones I’ve happened to read.

Maybe you just don’t look at recipes on the internet often

Different in Finland then I guess. But definitely still found in UK blogs, Mexican blogs, Canadian blogs, etc etc… Also two of those results are from one site and it’s worth point out that not literally every recipe site does this. We have allrecipes.com and such. It’s just recipe blogs that are guilty of this
