        I’ve never seen one without a 'jump to recipe" button, and it’s done for several reasons like search engine optimization, getting people to spend more time on your website, and you can’t copyright just a recipe, so adding text gives them the ability to protect their work. There are more reasons, and many think it’s as annoying to write all that as you think it is for being there. They’re kinda forced to do it, and some actually have fun with it, I’ve read several funny ones which I absolutely would rather have read than not.

        There are many articles about this, and obviously also many posts everywhere on the web asking why it’s a thing with answers explaining it.

        But as said, there’s always a button right at the top to skip it. You’re never forced to manually scroll past it and obviously not forced to read any of it.

          Wonder if there’s a market for smut recipes. Like just pulpy romance bullshit instead of the boring life story.
