The rules

forkit is for cooking. Everything you post should be a recipe, or about food and cooking.

Allowed

  • Recipes, cook notes and tips
  • Photos of food, ingredients, drinks, kitchens, cookware, markets, and people cooking or eating
  • Photos or screenshots of recipes

Not allowed

  • Nudity, sexual content, or anything sexual involving minors (reported to the authorities)
  • Ads or offers for anything that isn’t food: services, meetings, jobs, travel, money
  • Phone numbers, emails, social media handles or links in public recipes
  • Violence, hate and harassment
  • Using forkit to store or share files that aren’t about cooking

How it’s enforced

  • Every photo is checked automatically before it’s saved. Photos that aren’t about food are turned away.
  • Public recipes are checked before others can see them. Anything that looks wrong waits for a person to review it.
  • New accounts can share publicly after their first day.
  • Breaking the rules gets an account locked. Serious cases are reported to the police and to NCMEC.
  • Photos uploaded but never added to a recipe are deleted after a day.

See something wrong?

Use Report at the bottom of any public recipe. When several people report a recipe, it’s hidden until we’ve looked at it.
