If anyone is curious, this is at least part due to copyright law. A recipe is a set of facts, which is no copyrighted. But recipes with substantial literary expression (making it unique) can be copyrighted. Content creators don’t want their stuff copied so viola…that’s how you get a long winded story before the goods.
