This article completely ignores the very relevant reason the recipe is buried at the bottom: SEO. The loudest food bloggers complaining rely on organic search traffic, likely for the majority of their traffic.

It’s very easy to prove the wall of text is 100% for ads. If it wasn’t, they’d simply move the recipes above the wall of text. The text would still be there for those who want it and for SEO. People who just want the recipe would get it up front and center. It’d put an end to all the negative feedback that spurs an…

Despite the fact that recipes at the top would put an end to the negative feedback they claim to hate, truth is the wall of text has nothing to do with history/context and all to do with ads. Putting the recipe at the bottom forces people to scroll past ads for revenue. It’s fine that’s how they make their money but…

For the person who just wants the recipe...no, no it doesn’t. If you want to include that nonsense, put it at the end.  Not everyone searching for a recipe is interested in the life story / cooking blog attached to it.  Then again I went to journalism school where they teach you to put the important bits up front, not…

What if the reader doesn’t want to be a better cook and they just want to follow deliberate instructions for a specific item?

I’m definitely against content stealing but I think I’d be hard pressed to believe the long intro isn’t just for SEO and to increase visit duration for ad purposes.

Yes, there is a lot of great stuff in the full article. Methodology, often some science of cooking and chemical reactions, technique, etc.

If the pages of boilerplate preceding recipes is actually important, then you are reading better cooking blogs than I am (not unlikely). In my experience, it’s usually anecdotes and cheerleading about the recipe they already sold you on with a photo. The worst offense, though, is that the main website I use for…

Hot water and crumpled newspaper. Getting windshields squeaky clean, streak free, since the 40's.

Winter air is cold. Cold air holds less moisture than the warm air inside the air. When you heat up the cold air from outside, the relative humidity drops.

I’ve been able to do this so long on Android that I can’t remember when I first could do it. Almost a decade ago? I definitely had a custom launcher, transparent widgets, and icon selection on my LG Ally, if that places the timeframe anywhere. 

I’ve had to tell people to call back after they remove the dog. Dog barking is something I won’t tolerate at all.

In hospital we don't often see the mental side effects of dexamethasone because you usually only get that drug when you're on the ventilator.

Can’t wait to hear the Trumpers crying when their income tax return is non-existent do to things like this. Unfortunately we are all going to get what they deserve and they won’t be capable of understanding the culprit

Low risk? The 5,000,000 confirmed cases and over 160,000 dead says something different. We’ve had less deaths total than the USA has had in a week. Adjust for population, your outbreak is still vastly worse than ours.

And that gated drum sound he used to use was the bomb.
Someone should bring that back.

Firefox is a pain to manage in a corporate environment.  Chome is much easier.
