Getting imported unit wrong for a recipe site

[scottb721]

I've tried two recipes from Taste.com.au and both have had Cup measurements replaced with ml.
eg 1/4 cup becomes 62.5ml
https://www.taste.com.au/recipes/easy-seafood-laksa/7a86bc26-e04f-460d-ad82-f8531733b9a0

Is this something I can prevent from occurring in the settings or do I need to manually correct the recipe ?

Thanks

The recipe parser grabs the schema.org JSON on the page, which lists the ingredients in metric. The taste site converts this on the front-end but there's nothing you can do to import it in imperial I'm afraid.

Thanks for that. So the Taste site is converting the ml value in their backend data into cups for the webpage ?

Front-end, but yes. You can see it if you look at the page source and look for, for instance, 62.5 ml:

If you're interested in the technical aspects of this, check out https://schema.org/Recipe
and https://github.com/hhursev/recipe-scrapers (which is what mealie uses to scrape recipes).

Thanks for the information. Didn't know that was even a thing 😂
