  1. Be civil and nice.
  2. Try not to excessively repost, as a rule of thumb, wait at least 2 months to do it if you have to.

Which ruined looking for recipes online and using Google search operators to filter put american recipes is irritating because you have to fine tune and repeat based on the google results until all american recipes are filtered out

My tip is to search for it in another language.

Let your browser translate the webpage for you. Or maybe you have luck with YouTube auto captions.
