That doesn't work anymore either, because they add a bunch of shit after the recipe now too.

And, even worse, they often put important details about the recipe in the middle of their screed rather than with the recipe itself.

Yeah, honestly, most blogs have a "skip to recipe" button. By now basically everyone knows why they do it (to keep their work from being ripped off), so I really don't mind the mild inconvenience of clicking an extra button. They're taking the time to share their expertise with the rest of us, I'm fine if they make sure they get credit for it.

I don’t see how this could possibly work. My recipe manager can extract the recipe from those pages faster than I can cluck that button
