Hey sorry to hear that, I do care about accessibility. I'll try using a screen reader to see how the site could be made more accessible.

- User23 4y agoI want to be clear that I wasn't criticizing your site, I like it a lot! My comment was with respect to all the other recipe sites that have 15 paragraphs of fluff and ads before they get to the actual information. I'm glad you also care about accessibility so here is some, I hope, constructive feedback. The site is already considerably better with a screen reader than other recipe sites. Poking at it with VoiceOver on I noticed a few things. I'm looking at the Açai Bowl page, but I presume most if not all of the following will apply more generally. 1) The alt text for the picture of the dish is a GUID or something. A brief description of the image would be better. 2) The little calculator icon next to the kcal doesn't have any description. 3) The plus and minus buttons are described correctly, but there is an odd one second pause between it saying "button" and then "add" or "minus." At first this made me think it was just going to be described as "button" which is common on many sites and apps. 4) Various snippets of text, such as the ingredients and the nutrition facts are split in such a way that VoiceOver recognizes them as separate elements. So instead of reading "One tablespoon milk powder" it reads "1" "tablespoon" "milk powder" as the user swipes through each element. This last issue doesn't seriously impact usability.
