I built a recipe API because the existing ones were too expensive and too inconsistent
A developer built their own recipe API, Foodashi, after existing APIs were too expensive and inconsistent. The API prioritizes consistency, providing a standard set of fields for every recipe. It now offers thousands of recipes across 78 cuisines, with detailed nutrition information and allergens. Engineers can use the API with a simple GET request. Foodashi's API is a viable alternative to existing recipe APIs.
