Last updated: September 29, 2026
Welcome, and thanks for being here. These Terms of Use (the “Terms”) are the agreement between you and What Jew Wanna Eat (“What Jew Wanna Eat,” “we,” “us,” or “I”) covering your use of https://whatjewwannaeat.com and any of its pages, recipes, photos, videos, newsletters, and other content (together, the “Site”).
Please read these Terms carefully. They include a disclaimer of warranties, a limitation of liability, and an agreement to resolve disputes through individual arbitration rather than in court or through a class action. These provisions affect your legal rights. If you do not agree to these Terms, please do not use the Site.
1. Your agreement to these Terms
By visiting, browsing, reading, commenting on, subscribing to, or otherwise using the Site, you agree to these Terms and to our Privacy Policy, which is incorporated here by reference. If you are using the Site on behalf of a business or organization, you represent that you have authority to bind it to these Terms.
2. Who may use the Site
The Site is intended for a general audience and is not directed to children under 16. You may not submit comments, subscribe to the newsletter, or otherwise send us personal information if you are under 16. See the Children’s Policy section of our Privacy Policy for more.
3. Our content, and what you may do with it
All recipes, written text, photographs, videos, illustrations, logos, and design elements on the Site are owned by What Jew Wanna Eat or used with permission, and are protected by copyright, trademark, and other laws. A great deal of work goes into each recipe and photo, so please respect the following:
You may:
- Cook the recipes for yourself, your family, your friends, and your holiday table, as much as you like.
- Share a link to any page on the Site anywhere you want.
- Use one photo from a post, unaltered, alongside a brief description and a direct, do-follow link back to the original post on this Site.
- Pin images from the Site to Pinterest using the sharing tools provided on the Site.
- Print a recipe for your personal, non-commercial use.
You may not, without our prior written permission:
- Republish a recipe’s full ingredient list and instructions, or any substantial portion of our written content, anywhere else, including on a blog, in a roundup, in a newsletter, in an app, or on social media. Rewriting a recipe in your own words and linking back is welcome; copying and pasting it is not.
- Use our photographs or videos in any commercial context, in advertising, or as part of a product.
- Remove, crop out, or obscure any watermark, credit, or copyright notice.
- Use the Site’s content to train, fine-tune, or develop any artificial intelligence or machine learning model, or scrape, crawl, or harvest the Site by automated means for that purpose. This is in addition to any separate terms presented through the “Terms of Content Use” link in the Site footer.
- Use the What Jew Wanna Eat name or logo in a way that suggests we endorse, sponsor, or are affiliated with you or your products.
If you would like to use our content in a way not listed above, please ask. We are usually happy to say yes. Email [email protected].
4. Recipes are provided as-is, and results will vary
Our recipes are shared for your enjoyment and are provided for general informational purposes only. Cooking involves many variables that we cannot control, including your ingredients, your equipment, your oven’s actual temperature, your altitude, your substitutions, and your technique. We cannot and do not guarantee that any recipe will turn out a particular way for you.
You are responsible for using safe food handling practices, including safe cooking temperatures, safe storage, and safe handling of raw meat, poultry, eggs, fish, and dairy. If you are unsure, please consult a current, authoritative food safety resource such as foodsafety.gov.
5. Allergens, dietary needs, nutrition, and kashrut
Allergens. Ingredient lists and labels change, and manufacturing practices differ. If you or anyone you are cooking for has a food allergy or intolerance, you are responsible for reading the labels on every product you use and for verifying that it is safe. Do not rely on our recipes or ingredient descriptions to determine whether a food is safe for an allergic person.
Nutrition information. Any nutrition information shown on the Site is an automated estimate generated by a third-party calculator based on the ingredients listed. It is an approximation only, it is not verified by a registered dietitian or laboratory, and it will not be accurate for your particular preparation, brands, or portion sizes. Do not rely on it for medical or dietary decisions.
Health. Nothing on the Site is medical, nutritional, safety or health advice, and nothing here is a substitute for care from a qualified health professional. Never disregard professional medical advice or delay seeking it because of something you read here.
Kashrut. Recipes on the Site may be described as dairy, meat, pareve, kosher-style, or suitable for a particular holiday. These descriptions reflect the recipe as we developed it and are offered in good faith, not as a hechsher or as a rabbinic ruling. The Site is not under rabbinic supervision. If you keep kosher, you are responsible for confirming the kosher status of every ingredient you buy and for following your own kashrut standards and your own rabbinic authority. The same applies to Passover recipes and to any kitniyot question.
6. Comments and anything else you submit
We love hearing from you in the comments. When you submit a comment, recipe rating, photo, or other material to the Site (“Your Content”), the following applies:
- You keep ownership of Your Content.
- You grant us a non-exclusive, worldwide, royalty-free, perpetual, irrevocable, sublicensable license to use, display, reproduce, adapt, and distribute Your Content in connection with the Site and its promotion, including in social media posts and newsletters, with attribution to the name you supplied.
- You confirm that Your Content is yours to share and does not infringe anyone else’s rights.
- You agree not to post anything unlawful, harassing, hateful, defamatory, threatening, sexually explicit, deceptive, or spam, and not to post anything that impersonates another person.
We may edit, refuse to post, or remove any comment at our discretion, and we are not obligated to keep any comment online. Comments are the views of the people who wrote them, not of What Jew Wanna Eat. Comments are screened by the Akismet spam filtering service, as described in our Privacy Policy.
7. Advertising, affiliate links, and sponsored content
The Site is supported by advertising, affiliate relationships, and occasional sponsored content. Specifically:
- Display advertising. The Site is affiliated with CMI Marketing, Inc., d/b/a Raptive, for the purpose of placing advertising on the Site. Raptive and its advertising partners collect and use data for advertising purposes, as described in our Privacy Policy and in the Raptive Publisher Advertising Privacy Policy.
- Affiliate links. What Jew Wanna Eat is a participant in the Amazon Services LLC Associates Program, an affiliate advertising program designed to provide a means for sites to earn advertising fees by advertising and linking to Amazon.com. We may also participate in other affiliate programs. This means that if you click certain links on the Site and make a purchase, we may earn a commission at no additional cost to you. We only link to products we would actually use.
- Sponsored content. Some posts are paid for or sponsored by a brand. When that is the case, it is disclosed within the post. Sponsors may require tracking codes that measure traffic, pageviews, and clicks for that post.
Advertisements, affiliate products, and sponsored products are not endorsements of any claim made by the advertiser or brand, and we are not responsible for their products, services, or business practices.
8. Cookies, analytics, and your consent to data collection
This section is important, so please read it closely.
The Site uses cookies, pixels, tags, software development kits, and similar technologies, operated both by us and by third parties, that automatically collect information about your visit. This includes your IP address, device and browser type, operating system, referring website, the pages you view, the links you click, how long you stay, and similar activity information. This information is collected by and shared with third-party service providers including Google (Google Analytics 4), Raptive and its advertising partners, Automattic (Jetpack Stats), Kit, WP Recipe Maker, Akismet, and the providers of any video or social content embedded on a page. Some of this sharing may be considered a “sale” or “sharing” of personal information for targeted advertising under California and other state privacy laws.
Our Privacy Policy describes each of these technologies, what is collected, and who receives it.
By continuing to use the Site after being presented with these Terms, you knowingly and voluntarily consent to the collection, recording, interception, use, disclosure, and sharing of the information described above and in the Privacy Policy, by us and by the third-party service providers identified there, for the purposes described there. This consent includes consent to the collection and recording of your interactions with the Site by those third-party providers acting on our behalf.
You can withdraw this consent, and you can opt out. You have these options at any time:
- Use the “Do not sell or share my personal information” link in the footer of every page to opt out of the sale or sharing of your personal information for targeted advertising.
- Send a Global Privacy Control (GPC) signal from your browser or extension. We honor GPC signals as an opt-out request.

- Stop using the Site.
If you do not consent to the collection described above, please exercise one of the opt-out options or do not use the Site.
9. Links to other websites
The Site contains links to third-party websites and services that we do not own or control. We provide those links for convenience, and including one is not an endorsement. We are not responsible for the content, accuracy, privacy practices, or products of any third-party site. Once you leave the Site, these Terms and our Privacy Policy no longer apply to you.
10. Email newsletter
If you subscribe to our newsletter, you are consenting to receive emails from What Jew Wanna Eat about new recipes, holidays, products, and occasional promotions. Our newsletters are sent through Kit (formerly ConvertKit) and may contain tracking pixels and links that tell us whether an email was opened and which links were clicked. You can unsubscribe at any time using the link at the bottom of any email, or by emailing [email protected].
11. Availability of the Site
We do our best to keep the Site running, but we do not promise it will always be available, uninterrupted, timely, secure, or error-free. We may change, suspend, update, or discontinue any part of the Site, including any recipe or post, at any time and without notice.
12. Disclaimer of warranties
THE SITE AND ALL CONTENT ON IT ARE PROVIDED ON AN “AS IS” AND “AS AVAILABLE” BASIS, WITHOUT WARRANTIES OF ANY KIND, WHETHER EXPRESS, IMPLIED, OR STATUTORY. TO THE FULLEST EXTENT PERMITTED BY LAW, WE DISCLAIM ALL WARRANTIES, INCLUDING THE IMPLIED WARRANTIES OF MERCHANTABILITY, FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE, TITLE, AND NON-INFRINGEMENT, AND ANY WARRANTY THAT THE SITE OR ITS CONTENT IS ACCURATE, COMPLETE, RELIABLE, CURRENT, OR FREE OF VIRUSES OR OTHER HARMFUL COMPONENTS.
Some jurisdictions do not allow the exclusion of certain warranties, so some of the above may not apply to you.
13. Limitation of liability
TO THE FULLEST EXTENT PERMITTED BY LAW, WHAT JEW WANNA EAT AND ITS OWNER, EMPLOYEES, CONTRACTORS, AND AGENTS WILL NOT BE LIABLE FOR ANY INDIRECT, INCIDENTAL, SPECIAL, CONSEQUENTIAL, EXEMPLARY, OR PUNITIVE DAMAGES, OR FOR ANY LOSS OF PROFITS, DATA, GOODWILL, OR BUSINESS INTERRUPTION, ARISING OUT OF OR RELATING TO YOUR USE OF THE SITE OR ANY CONTENT ON IT, WHETHER BASED ON WARRANTY, CONTRACT, TORT, STATUTE, OR ANY OTHER LEGAL THEORY, AND WHETHER OR NOT WE HAVE BEEN ADVISED OF THE POSSIBILITY OF SUCH DAMAGES.
THIS INCLUDES, WITHOUT LIMITATION, ANY CLAIM ARISING FROM YOUR PREPARATION OR CONSUMPTION OF ANY RECIPE, FROM ANY ALLERGIC OR ADVERSE REACTION, FROM ANY FOODBORNE ILLNESS, FROM RELIANCE ON ANY NUTRITION ESTIMATE, OR FROM RELIANCE ON ANY STATEMENT ABOUT THE DIETARY OR KOSHER STATUS OF A RECIPE OR INGREDIENT.
TO THE FULLEST EXTENT PERMITTED BY LAW, OUR TOTAL AGGREGATE LIABILITY TO YOU FOR ALL CLAIMS RELATING TO THE SITE WILL NOT EXCEED ONE HUNDRED U.S. DOLLARS (US $100.00).
Some jurisdictions do not allow certain limitations of liability, so some of the above may not apply to you. Nothing in these Terms limits liability that cannot be limited under applicable law.
14. Indemnification
You agree to indemnify, defend, and hold harmless What Jew Wanna Eat and its owner, employees, contractors, and agents from any claim, demand, loss, liability, damage, cost, or expense, including reasonable attorneys’ fees, arising out of or relating to your use of the Site, Your Content, your violation of these Terms, or your violation of any law or the rights of any third party.
15. Resolving disputes: informal resolution first, then individual arbitration
Please read this section carefully. It affects your legal rights, including your right to file a lawsuit in court and to have a jury hear your claims.
15.1 Informal resolution is required first
Most concerns can be sorted out quickly by email. Before starting an arbitration or any other proceeding, you agree to first send a written Notice of Dispute to [email protected] with the subject line “Notice of Dispute.” The Notice must include your full name, your mailing address, the email address associated with your use of the Site, a description of the nature and basis of your claim, the specific relief you are seeking, and your personal signature. A Notice submitted on behalf of multiple people is not valid unless it includes this information for each person individually.
We will send you a Notice of Dispute at the address you have provided, or if we do not have one, by any reasonable means. Both parties agree to negotiate in good faith for 60 days after a Notice of Dispute is received. Either party may request an individualized telephone or videoconference settlement conference during that period, and both parties will participate in good faith. Completing this informal process is a condition precedent to starting an arbitration, and the applicable statute of limitations and any arbitration fee deadlines are tolled while it is underway. A court or arbitrator may enjoin the filing or prosecution of an arbitration that is begun without completing this process.
15.2 Agreement to individual arbitration
If we cannot resolve the dispute informally, you and What Jew Wanna Eat agree that any dispute, claim, or controversy arising out of or relating to the Site, these Terms, our Privacy Policy, our data practices, or the relationship between us, whether based in contract, tort, statute, fraud, misrepresentation, or any other legal theory, and whether arising before or after these Terms took effect, will be resolved exclusively by final and binding individual arbitration, and not in a court of law.
This agreement to arbitrate is governed by the Federal Arbitration Act. The arbitrator, and not any court, has exclusive authority to resolve disputes about the interpretation, applicability, enforceability, or formation of this arbitration agreement, except that a court has exclusive authority to decide disputes about the scope and enforceability of the Class Action Waiver in Section 15.4 and the Mass Arbitration provisions in Section 15.5.
15.3 Arbitration provider, rules, and fee schedules
The arbitration will be administered by the American Arbitration Association (“AAA”) under its Consumer Arbitration Rules, as modified by these Terms. If 25 or more similar claims are asserted against us by or with the assistance of the same law firm or organized group of firms, the arbitration will additionally be governed by the AAA Supplementary Rules for Multiple Case Filings, and the AAA Consumer Mass Arbitration and Mediation Fee Schedule will apply to those filings. You and What Jew Wanna Eat expressly agree to the application of those Supplementary Rules and that Fee Schedule.
If the AAA is unavailable or unwilling to administer the arbitration consistent with these Terms, the arbitration will instead be administered by JAMS under its Streamlined Arbitration Rules and, where 75 or more similar demands are filed, under the JAMS Mass Arbitration Procedures and the JAMS Mass Arbitration Procedures Fee Schedule, to which both parties expressly agree. If neither the AAA nor JAMS will administer the arbitration consistent with these Terms, the parties will agree on another provider, or a court of competent jurisdiction will appoint one.
Arbitration will be conducted by a single arbitrator. Unless you and we agree otherwise, any hearing will be conducted by telephone or videoconference, or, if an in-person hearing is required, in the county where you reside or another mutually agreed location. The arbitrator’s award may be entered as a judgment in any court of competent jurisdiction.
15.4 Class action and jury trial waiver
YOU AND WHAT JEW WANNA EAT AGREE THAT EACH MAY BRING CLAIMS AGAINST THE OTHER ONLY IN AN INDIVIDUAL CAPACITY, AND NOT AS A PLAINTIFF OR CLASS MEMBER IN ANY PURPORTED CLASS, COLLECTIVE, CONSOLIDATED, OR REPRESENTATIVE PROCEEDING. The arbitrator may not consolidate more than one person’s claims except as expressly provided in Section 15.5, and may not preside over any form of class or representative proceeding. The arbitrator may award relief only in favor of the individual party seeking relief and only to the extent necessary to provide relief warranted by that party’s individual claim.
YOU AND WHAT JEW WANNA EAT ALSO WAIVE ANY RIGHT TO A JURY TRIAL.
If this Section 15.4 is found to be unenforceable as to a particular claim or request for relief, then that claim or request for relief, and only that one, will be severed from the arbitration and brought in a court of competent jurisdiction, and the remaining claims will continue in arbitration. If this Section 15.4 is found unenforceable in its entirety, then the whole of Section 15 is void.
15.5 Mass arbitration: batching
If 25 or more demands for arbitration raising substantially similar claims are filed against us by or with the coordination of the same counsel or organized group of counsel, the parties agree that the demands will be resolved in staged batches of no more than 50 demands at a time. The parties will cooperate with the arbitration provider to assign each batch to a single arbitrator, to hold a single set of proceedings per batch, and to issue a single award per batch allocating relief individually. No demand in a later batch may proceed until the prior batch has been resolved, and all applicable limitations periods and filing deadlines are tolled for demands awaiting a batch. If a court finds this batching provision unenforceable, then either party may elect to have that party’s claims heard in court.
15.6 Exceptions
Notwithstanding the above, either party may:
- Bring an individual claim in a small claims court with jurisdiction, so long as it stays in that court and proceeds on an individual basis.
- Seek injunctive or other equitable relief in a court of competent jurisdiction for the actual or threatened infringement or misappropriation of intellectual property rights.
Nothing in these Terms prevents you from reporting a concern to, or seeking relief from, a government agency such as the Federal Trade Commission or a state attorney general.
15.7 Your right to opt out of arbitration
You may opt out of this Section 15 within 30 days of the date you first accept these Terms. To opt out, email [email protected] with the subject line “Arbitration Opt-Out,” including your name, mailing address, and the email address associated with your use of the Site, and a clear statement that you want to opt out of the arbitration agreement. Opting out of arbitration has no effect on any other part of these Terms, and it will not affect your use of the Site in any way.
15.8 Survival
This Section 15 survives the termination of these Terms and your use of the Site.
16. Governing law and venue
These Terms and any dispute arising out of or relating to them or to the Site are governed by the laws of the State of California, without regard to its conflict of laws principles, except that the Federal Arbitration Act governs Section 15. For any dispute not subject to arbitration, you and What Jew Wanna Eat agree to the exclusive jurisdiction and venue of the state and federal courts located in California.
17. Changes to these Terms
We may update these Terms from time to time. When we do, we will revise the “Last updated” date at the top of this page. If we make a material change, we will take reasonable steps to notify you, such as posting a notice on the Site. Material changes to Section 15 will not apply to any dispute for which a Notice of Dispute was already submitted. Your continued use of the Site after a change takes effect means you accept the revised Terms.
18. Other terms
Entire agreement. These Terms and our Privacy Policy are the entire agreement between you and What Jew Wanna Eat regarding the Site, and they replace any prior agreement on that subject.
Severability. If any provision of these Terms is held unenforceable, that provision will be limited or removed to the minimum extent necessary, and the remaining provisions will stay in full effect, subject to the specific rules in Sections 15.4 and 15.5.
No waiver. Our failure to enforce any provision is not a waiver of our right to enforce it later.
Assignment. You may not assign these Terms. We may assign them in connection with a merger, acquisition, or sale of all or part of our assets.
