2. The Service

Eat Verdure is an AI-powered recipe generation platform. It uses large language models and image generation systems to produce recipe content in response to user prompts. The Service is provided for personal, non-commercial use.

3. AI-Generated Content

All recipes, ingredient lists, cooking instructions, and related content produced by the Service are generated by artificial intelligence. You acknowledge and agree that:

• It is your sole responsibility to verify that all ingredients and preparation methods are safe, appropriate for your dietary needs, and suitable for your circumstances before consuming or serving any recipe.
• Always check that all ingredients are within their expiry date and are fresh before use. The Service does not verify or account for the condition, freshness, or shelf life of any product in your possession.
• If you have any food allergies or intolerances, independently verify every ingredient in any generated recipe before consuming it. AI-generated content may include allergens without flagging them for your specific needs.
• Generated content is not a substitute for professional dietary, nutritional, or medical advice. If you have health conditions, allergies, or dietary restrictions, consult a qualified professional before following any recipe.
