A friend gifted me a few hellofresh boxes once and I quite liked the recipes. But I don’t care about subscription services to get overpriced groceries delivered if the supermarket is a 5 minutes walk away.
Is there any collection on the recipes online? At least in Germany, recipes aren’t even copyrighted, so it wouldn’t even be illegal to distribute them here (AFAIK, IANAL).
I sure don’t mind them in english. Would be really neat if you’d share them. (:
I’ve done less useful things with a Monday morning before. PDFs, and I will try to suss a way to set the file names programatically.
A handful may come with ‘pre-printed accidents’ but all will be legible :)
As long as the scanner can handle the slightly thicker paper stock they use, we should be golden.
I’m still wondering if there’s a place where to communally share these recipes, other than importing them on some big recipe platform.
Now I am wondering the same.
And looking down the rabbithole of Tesseract OCR haha.
Python, Tesseract, OpenAI and my 3 remaining brain cells have now combined to form a working script that will rename the scan file names to whatever it reads in a certain section of the card.
Doing them by hand would be a nightmare 😅
Wow, someone needed a project. ;)
Thanks a lot, seriously! ^^
