Hi there, and welcome to MealSmell.com ! We’re so happy you stopped by. Whether you’re here to try a new recipe, explore some food tips, or just get inspired in the kitchen, thank you for being part of our growing community.

Before you dive in, please take a moment to read through these Terms of Use. They’re here to help you understand how to use our site responsibly and what you can expect from us. By accessing or using MealSmell.com, you agree to these terms. If something doesn’t sit right with you, you might want to skip using the site—but we really hope you stay!

1. Who We Are

MealSmell.com is a recipe blog that shares food inspiration, cooking tips, and the occasional kitchen story. Everything we post is created with love and shared to help you enjoy cooking as much as we do.

2. Using Our Website

We welcome everyone to explore, enjoy, and share our content—respectfully and responsibly. Here’s what you agree to when using the site:

  • Use it for personal, non-commercial purposes.
  • Don’t steal or copy our content without asking first.
  • Be kind and respectful if you choose to leave a comment or share your opinion.

Basically: play nice, and let’s all enjoy this space together.

3. Our Content (and Yours, Too)

Everything you see on MealSmell—photos, text, recipes, blog posts, videos—is protected by copyright and other laws. We put a lot of time and energy into creating it, so please don’t copy, repost, or sell our content as your own.

That said, we love it when you:

  • Share our recipes on social media (with credit and a link).
  • Leave helpful, positive comments.
  • Let us know how a recipe turned out!

If you do post or upload anything to our site (like comments or photos), you’re giving us permission to use it on the blog or on our social media. Don’t worry—we’ll always aim to give credit where it’s due.

4. Third-Party Links and Ads

Sometimes we link to other websites, tools, or brands we like. We try to choose quality stuff, but we’re not responsible for anything that happens on those sites. Clicking those links is at your own risk.

Some of our content may include affiliate links or partnerships. If you click on a product we recommend and make a purchase, we might earn a small commission—at no extra cost to you. This helps support the blog and keep the recipes coming!

5. Health & Recipe Disclaimer

We’re food lovers—not certified nutritionists, dietitians, or medical professionals. The information on MealSmell.com is based on personal experiences, preferences, and research. While we aim for accuracy, you should always use your own judgment and consult professionals when needed—especially if you have dietary restrictions, allergies, or medical conditions.

Cooking involves some risk (sharp knives, hot stoves, undercooked eggs—you get it). Please be safe and careful in the kitchen!

6. No Guarantees

We do our best to ensure everything on the site is accurate and available, but sometimes things happen. We can’t guarantee that:

  • The site will always work perfectly.
  • All information is error-free.
  • Every recipe will turn out the same for everyone (oven temps and taste buds vary!).

Use the site at your own discretion.

7. Updates to These Terms

Just like a great recipe, these Terms might need a few updates now and then. If we make changes, we’ll post them here. Continued use of the site means you agree to any updates.
