AMA Policy and Core Values (formerly Live Talks:
Ban appeals information:
Recipes are not required but are heavily encouraged Please be kind and provide one. A recipe consists of a list of ingredients and directions, not just a link to a domain.

RULES
70% of the title has to specifically describe what the food is. Backstory to the food / where the ingredients come from (leftover, last nights, home grown) do not fall within the 70% and must only take up 30% of the title.
- Titles worded to solicit votes directly or indirectly will be removed. The titles must have one (1) tag. No emojis or all caps, please.
Add a Tag at the Front of Your Title.
The available tags are:
[I ate] - food you ate in a restaurant
[Homemade] - food you made at home
[Pro/Chef] - food you made if you work in the food industry
No Low-Quality Posts or Comments.
"Be Nice"
- Please be respectful and don't call other users (and their food) derogatory words. We enforce Redditquette.

Linking YouTube videos is allowed, as long as the video complies with the following:
