Betrayal of a secret recipe leads to disinvitation from friends

NTA – You’re a competent cook who helped out in her kitchen, and you used your skills to *reconstruct* a recipe you enjoyed. Then you made changes to it to suit your tastes. If she didn’t want you to use that skill set then she shouldn’t have accepted your free labor in the kitchen *while she was making it*. You didn’t snoop through a drawer. You used your brain. *Do not volunteer labor for this person ever again.*

Impressive recreation, but no more invites or home-cooked meals ️

Betraying a friend’s trust in the kitchen? Definitely a YTA

NTA. Friends should be flattered, not secretive about recipes!

Sharing is caring! NTA for recreating the recipe from memory

Sam should be flattered! Sharing recipes is the ultimate compliment!

Recipe thief strikes again! NTA, it’s just a dish.
